The world is recovering from the pandemic and adapting to new ways of life, both in changed habits and behaviours, but also new rules for businesses to navigate to continue to prosper.
Necessity is the mother of invention. Times of crisis and recession have been, in retrospect, times of enormous opportunity and innovation, and times of growth for those who make the right decisions.
Technologies and ways of working that might have seemed an interesting experiment in other times have become essential.
In this report we look at three megatrends that are helping to define the recovery, each with smaller manifestations or sub-trends, with major implications for brands.

Dial M for ECommerce (if you aren't, think Mobile for omni-channel. NOW)Suhas Dutta
If you have been procrastinating about Mobile, you better start now. The trend is clear and present. Read more to view and understand data which tells you about the mobile demographics in India related to ecommerce and specifically Tier 2 cities.
Mobile Goes Mainstreet: Consumers Lead the Way — Key Trends and Investment Op...Linda Gridley
The number of smartphone users in the U.S. is consistently growing and the connected user is turning to mobile more and more frequently for everyday consumption. Global mobile data traffic is predicted to increase 26-fold between 2010 and 2015. Smartphone and tablet revenues overtook traditional desktop and laptop revenues in 2013. At the same time, the amount of time users are spending on mobile daily is increasing. Mobile commerce sales are reaching all-time highs, and now represent 12% of total digital commerce, while mobile traffic represent about 40% for major eCommerce retailers such as Amazon, eBay, Apple, and Walmart.
The mobile industry was unquestionably the most important growth channel across digital media. Some of the most important trends we’ve seen in the sector include:
Average mobile (plus tablet) time spend now equal to desktop
Mobile is no longer just for gaming. Growing number
of use cases and apps hitting mass adoption— utilities, productivity,shopping, media & entertainment
Total mobile ad revenue grew twofold in 2013, and still only represents 2% of total ad spend but 12% of total media time spend
Strong M&A and funding environment – First $1bn M&A deal in mobile. Q3’13 was record quarter for mobile
Digital media leaders such as Facebook and Twitter realigned their organizations to mobile over the past two years and now see 40% plus of their revenue from the mobile channel
The evolution of mobile as the next computing platform is just beginning to take shape, bringing new billion market opportunities to the digital media ecosystem. We believe it is still early in this evolution and expect to see new technologies and innovative applications to fuel continued growth over the next five years.
Mobile in 2013: Our Take On The Top Trends & InsightsMCSaatchiMobile

Looks at why mobile payments hasn't taken off in most places around the world and what has to happen for mobile payment platforms to ignite. Keynote presentation at the Berkeley Mobile Money Conference on October 11, 2013
Presentation examines antitrust economics of vertical restraints including tying, exclusive contracts, bundling, MFNs, the role of critical mass and platform ignition, possible anticompetitive strategies, and procompetitive explanations for vertical restraints.
Despite a sluggish economic recovery, Americans continue to shell out ever-growing amounts during high-spending times of the year. Take, for example, the record $4.7 billion consumers spent on movie tickets during the summer of 2013 and their total holiday purchases, which have been climbing steadily since 2010 after a two-year drop. During the run-up to these free-spending periods, companies put in many long hours devising sales strategies to maximize consumer engagement and ROI. Consumers plan ahead, too, relying on friends, family, social media and mobile devices to research products, land the best deals and discover the ultimate customer experience.
During these times, loyalty programs take center stage – not just in the retail sector but also in financial services. And some exciting recent developments have helped financial services loyalty programs turn the image of the faceless, unresponsive bank into one that is driving genuine customer engagement year-round, including:
• The evolving importance of Big Data and its accumulation and analysis beyond traditional loyalty metrics. Financial services, like other verticals, are learning to cater holistically to customers. What can a brand learn about program members outside of how they shop, what they buy and how they interact with their financial institution? How does their lifestyle impact their loyalty experience?
• The growing need for FIs to get moving on mobile while attracting, engaging and retaining Millennials – a generation poised for significant spending power, but whose loyalty remains up for grabs. Banks need to be where their customers are and increasingly that means offering them an on-the-go experience that is seamless, intuitive and fun.
• The fundamental rethinking of how a customer’s predicted long-term economic value – commonly known as customer lifetime value (CLV) – is determined. FIs must embrace CLV as the total amount customers could spend over time if properly engaged, with transactional barriers removed.
These trends – and additional insights – are at the heart of the Kobie Quarterly Review: Financial Services edition. Its goal is simple: to educate readers about the evolving loyalty landscape in specific industries and where it’s heading. Our Quarterly Review also offers suggestions and analyses on how brands can improve their loyalty efforts, discussions on mobile technology and today’s two-way brand-consumer dialogue.
We hope the Kobie Quarterly Review: Financial Services edition broadens your appreciation for what loyalty programs are all about - a way for brands and customers to truly develop genuine relationships – relationships that can grow as robust as the most revered financial institutions.
Tell us what you think and keep the conversation going.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
