By the end of this session, you will understand how to configure, extend, and safely deploy OpenClaw agents to automate workflows and drive productivity across your organization.
Agentic AI Is Coming for Software Development — Are Enterprises Ready?
As AI coding assistants move from novelty to necessity, enterprises are discovering that the real challenge is managing what happens before and after the code is created. In this episode of the AI Proving Ground Podcast, WWT's executive AI advisor Nate McKie explains why faster code generation is only half the answer — and why leaders who don't reinvest the time they're saving are already falling behind.
Securing AI in Motion: Gigamon Deep Observability for WWT ARMOR
Gain insights into Gigamon's role in strengthening AI security through improved network visibility, alongside WWT's AI Readiness Model for Operational Resilience (ARMOR) framework. Kent Noyes (WWT), Bassam Khan (Gigamon), and Istvan Berko (WWT) discuss how rapid AI adoption is expanding the attack surface and why organizations need governance, data controls, and visibility into data flows to innovate securely. The session outlines ARMOR's focus areas (including governance/compliance, model protection, data security operations, and secure development lifecycle) and explains how Gigamon's east-west traffic visibility and metadata extraction can support detection, investigations, and AI-driven analytics for SOC and operational use cases.
Most Data Centers Aren't Ready for AI
You can buy the GPUs but that doesn't mean you can run them.
Across the enterprise, AI investment is accelerating but the infrastructure behind it is lagging further than most teams realize. Power ceilings are being hit. Cooling systems are stretched. Floor space and rack density are becoming real constraints. And in many cases, organizations are discovering these limits after the hardware shows up.

Your Cloud Bill Isn't the Problem. Your Applications Are.
The organizations with the highest cloud bills are not the ones that failed to migrate. They are the ones that got there and paused, assuming the hard part was over.
In this episode of WWT Presents Research, host Robb Boyd sits down with Dave Sellers and Todd Barron to talk through what actually happens next. Because for a lot of teams, the moment the data center closes, the momentum quietly fades. And a few months later, the cloud bill shows up with some uncomfortable questions attached.

Your Recovery Plan Won't Work in a Cyberattack
It starts with a few phones buzzing. Then every screen locks. In that moment, most organizations realize something they didn't plan for. The systems they trusted to recover the business were built for the wrong kind of crisis. In this episode of WWT Presents Research, Robb Boyd and WWT cyber resilience expert Doug Wong unpack the critical gap between disaster recovery and cyber recovery. While traditional recovery assumes you can fail over and keep running, cyberattacks force a far more disruptive reality. Networks are shut down, systems are isolated and the path back isn't a switch, it's a rebuild.
