Qualys & SailPoint | Industry roundup in Cyber Daily

The industry speaks, part 1: World Privacy Day 2026Featuring Sam Salehi (MD ANZ, Qualys) and Gary Savarino (Identity Strategist APAC, SailPoint), in Cyber Daily

Milestone events like World Privacy Day need the work done weeks before the date itself. We worked with both Qualys and SailPoint on original commentary, with each spokesperson taking a different angle so the two pieces could share the page without competing for attention.

Sam Salehi spoke to the rise of 'shadow AI', while Gary Savarino made the case for adaptive identity in a world of AI agents. Both pieces ran in Cyber Daily's industry feature for the day; two clients sharing the same milestone with distinct points of view.

PR's new job is proving its value, report findsFeaturing Meltwater's State of PR Report and commentary from David Hickey, Executive Director APAC, in Mediaweek

We took that to Mediaweek as a feature opportunity built around the disconnect at the heart of the modern PR job. David Hickey, Meltwater's Executive Director APAC, spoke to what changes when communications is properly aligned with business priorities.

InfoSum | Industry feature in SecurityBrief

AI, cyber threats & the rise of strategic data privacyFeaturing commentary from Richard Knott, SVP APAC at InfoSum, in SecurityBrief

InfoSum is a data collaboration company whose audience is more often marketing and brand than CISO. However, the privacy conversation it wants to be part of is also a strong focus of security publications, which attract a different kind of audience.

We worked with Richard Knott on commentary for SecurityBrief that bridged the marketing and brand with the technical audiences, making the consumer and brand-performance case for privacy-by-design in language a security audience would still pick up.
