6 – Data Enables Utilities to Deliver with the Flick of a Switch
Most of us don’t think about the complex system working to deliver our utilities 24/7, even in the face of high demand or disastrous challenges. Part of what’s keeping the lights on is the ability to monitor demand levels far and wide, detect outages, and deliver resources where they’re needed most.
Young Ngo, CTO of Survalent, helps utilities do just that. Young shared how their distribution and outage system equips utilities to distribute power to the end users reliably, safely, and cost effectively, and how data drives this capability.

4 – How Surveillance Equips Financial Institutions to Maintain Compliance
Even though compliance is not a new requirement for financial institutions, organizations still work daily to check the boxes and stay up to date. While innovation enabled new ways to monitor activity, it also complicated things, burying organizations in data. The sheer volume and velocity can distract from the nefarious activity organizations need to detect.
Fortunately, surveillance platforms can help these organizations gain value from all that’s flying around. Our KX colleagues Sam Stanton-Cook and Enda Gildea, who have each been working in surveillance for eight years, shared how gathering and analyzing trades, quotes, E-comms, and more can provide financial institutions with the visibility they need to avoid fines and reputation hits.
