What makes a fax HIPAA compliant in the AI era
THE SO WHAT
Healthcare’s continued reliance on fax — now reframed through HIPAA and AI-era safeguards — shows that "legacy" channels persist when they fit compliance and workflow, not tech fashion.

Deep & Emerging TechGMO asks Japan to use new cyber defence powers after hack
A major internet group explicitly asking Japan to deploy its new active cyber defense powers marks a shift from private incident response to state-backed countermeasures. If you operate in Japan or similar regimes, assume serious breaches may trigger government involvement — your playbook needs clear interfaces for law enforcement and regulators, not just your SOC.
Deep & Emerging TechJapan’s GMO Internet Requests Government Cyber Defense Measures
A private operator asking the Japanese government for active cyber defense is another data point that large-scale breaches are outgrowing what individual firms can handle alone. If you run critical infrastructure or large consumer platforms, assume more state involvement in incident response and plan governance and disclosure accordingly.
Deep & Emerging TechWe take a tour of HPE’s Technology Renewal Centre to see how old tech is getting a second life
Enterprise hardware is starting to look more like a circular asset class—HPE’s renewal pipeline turns decommissioned gear into a structured supply source. Infra leaders should factor certified refurbished into their capacity planning, especially for non-cutting-edge workloads where capex and lead times matter more than bleeding-edge performance.
Deep & Emerging TechThe UK plans to invest £100M to create the AI Biosecurity Lab to boost defenses against biological threats, supported by OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind
AI labs are being pulled directly into national biosecurity architecture — £100M for the UK’s AIBL formalizes that AI capability is now part of biodefense infrastructure. If you touch biology, data, or models, expect tighter scrutiny on dual-use risk and more demand for auditable safety controls baked into your stack.
