Due to an increase in the need for medical imaging and a decreasing number of radiologists, teleradiology demand has dramatically increased across Germany and Austria. The amount of hospitals utilizing these services has doubled between 2018 and 2023, and this demand is only projected to continue to grow. Consequently, artificial intelligence (AI) has garnered much…
The 2024 Imperva Threat Research report has revealed that nearly half (49.6%) of all internet traffic originates from non-human sources, commonly referred to as bots, bolstering the claims of the 'dead internet theory.' The theory, which began circulating on 4chan in 2019, suggests that a vast majority of web traffic is auto-generated, and this is…
