In de Amerikaanse stad Los Angeles wordt al dagenlang gedemonstreerd tegen de migrantenpolitie ICE. Demonstraties die vreedzaam beginnen eindigen 's avonds met geweld. Daarom werd gisteren een avondklok ingevoerd. Agenten van ICE jagen in de stad op ongedocumenteerde immigranten. President Trump wil dat er iedere dag 3000 migranten worden opgepakt, zodat hij zijn verkiezingsbelofte van massadeportatie kan waarmaken. In Los Angeles zijn niet alleen criminele migranten gearresteerd, maar ook mensen die daar al jaren wonen, werken en belasting betalen. Los Angeles is de plek geworden waar het migratiebeleid van Trump op fel verzet stuit. Zijn beslissing om -tegen de wil van de burgemeester en de gouverneur- militairen naar de stad te sturen gooide olie op het vuur. Het is een strijd geworden tussen Trump en het democratische Californië. In de podcast vertelt journalist Mari Meyer vanuit LA welke positie migranten in haar stad innemen, en wat de acties van ICE teweegbrengen. NOS-correspondent Sjoerd den Daas vertelt wat Trump daar wil bereiken. Reageren? Mail dedag@nos.nl Presentatie en montage: Mattijs van de Wiel Redactie: Judith van de Hulsbeek

Russ D'Argento, CEO and founder of FINTRX, sits down with CJ in this episode to discuss building a Data as a Service (DaaS) business while also sharing insight into the highly lucrative world of family offices. He explains what a family office is (name a billionaire, they probably have one), their roles in wealth management, and how he identified this niche. He sheds light on FINTRX, what it does, and why building a verticalized data business for a niche market can be both exceptionally complicated and rewarding. He delves into the nuances of DaaS business models, what makes them different from SaaS, why it's so important to own your own data, and the unique challenges one faces in a business like this.

Cloud Connections 2025 Podcast Interview with Peter Eisengrein, SVP of Service, Delivery & Operations at XTIUM ST. PETERSBURG, FL - A new managed services powerhouse has emerged. Speaking with Technology Reseller News at Cloud Connections 2025, Peter Eisengrein, Senior Vice President of Service, Delivery & Operations, introduced XTIUM—a new brand created from the merger of Evolve IP's MSP business with ATSG. “XTIUM is a fresh brand built from two strong companies,” said Eisengrein. “We've taken everything Evolve IP was known for—managed cloud, UCaaS, CCaaS, DaaS—and added a full suite of managed network, managed security, and managed operations services.” The merger, announced just weeks earlier at Channel Partners, significantly expands the portfolio available to XTIUM's channel partners. Of particular interest to the channel: Managed Detection and Response (MDR) security services, enterprise help desk outsourcing, and the ability to deliver turnkey network management alongside voice and compute. “We're hearing a lot of excitement around security and network services,” said Eisengrein. “It's what customers are asking for—and what the channel didn't always associate with us before.” At the conference, Eisengrein also joined two merger-focused sessions to share lessons from XTIUM's own experience. His message? M&A success takes time, careful planning, and clean financials. “You can't rush it. Lenders move at their own pace, and you need to be prepared—especially when it comes to audited books and integration plans.” For partners, the opportunity lies in XTIUM's ability to meet customers where they are. “Most buyers are only in market for one service at a time,” said Eisengrein. “The key for channel partners is being able to pivot. If it's not UC today, maybe it's security, or help desk, or compute. Now, we can support all of it.” XTIUM positions itself as a white-glove, customer-centric provider that integrates with, rather than displaces, enterprise IT. “We don't just offer services,” said Eisengrein. “We solve problems. That's our mission.” Learn more at: www.xtium.com

Van onze correspondent is een serie van de makers van podcast De Dag. Iedere zaterdag maken we kennis met een van de correspondenten van de NOS, het land waar ze wonen, en de verhalen die wat hen betreft meer aandacht verdienen. Vandaag: Sjoerd den Daas, correspondent in Amerika en voorheen in China. Toen Sjoerd vanuit China naar Amerika verhuisde, vlak voor de presidentsverkiezingen, wist hij niet wie er ging winnen maar hij wist wel dat hij met alle scenario's rekening moest houden. 'Ik ben altijd wel overal op voorbereid,' vertelt hij, 'ik ben Covid-China gewend, maar ik heb ook hier voor wekenlang rijst, pasta en bloem in huis. En ik heb ook een gasmasker gekocht.' Hij verwacht niet dat hij het binnenkort nodig zal hebben, maar de onzekerheid in Amerika is wel groot, 'dus waarom niet?' Sjoerd vertelt verder in de podcast over de actualiteit, de handelstarieven en de zorgen onder Amerikanen over de gevolgen. Het gesprek gaat verder over de democratie, over de al dan niet autocratische visie van Trump, de persvrijheid die onder druk staat, de groeiende gelijkenissen tussen China en de VS, over het correspondentschap in een tijd waarin er bijna dagelijks breaking news-momenten zijn. Sjoerd geeft ook nog twee mooie cultuurtips, er zijn luisteraarsvragen én, niet onbelangrijk, antwoord op de vraag: heeft hij tijdens het preppen in zijn voorraadkast wel rekening gehouden met zijn grote liefde, de frikandel?  Volgende week: Geert Groot Koerkamp, correspondent in Rusland.

Guest post by Karen O'Connor, General Manager, Datapac As 2025 begins, it is an ideal time for organisations to reassess their business goals and align their technology strategies to support these objectives. The year promises significant technology, regulatory, and operational shifts, shaping how organisations navigate and seize opportunities. From the end of Windows 10 support to the implementation of the NIS2 Directive, the coming year presents pivotal changes that will test organisational resilience and adaptability. Windows 10 End of Life Microsoft's announcement that their Windows 10 support will cease on 14th October 2025 marks a critical deadline for organisations. It means that there will be no more Microsoft security updates, standard technical support, security patches, or new features and enhancements. After the deadline, devices running Windows 10 will face diminishing performance, growing incompatibility with modern software, and heightened cybersecurity risks. This is particularly concerning for organisations that last refreshed their hardware fleets during the COVID-19 pandemic. At that time, global supply chain disruptions forced many to procure laptops from the limited selection available to enable remote work, often without regard for future-proofing or optimal specifications. Fast forward to today, and a significant portion of these pandemic-era devices remains in use, which creates an urgent need for strategic planning to ensure a smooth migration to Windows 11 while addressing hardware limitations. Reimagining Hardware with Device-as-a-Service (DaaS) The upcoming Windows 10 end-of-support deadline poses a significant challenge for organisations, especially for those that need to refresh large portions of their hardware fleets. However, it also presents an opportunity to rethink how compute hardware is procured and managed, paving the way for more efficient and cost-effective approaches. Device-as-a-Service (DaaS) offers a modern solution for managing end-user hardware, combining devices, software, and lifecycle management into a single, streamlined service. DaaS provides a similar experience for organisations who are accustomed to consuming other aspects of their IT ecosystem as-a-Service, such as managed print services. A significant deliverable of managed print services for organisations has been the degree to which it has released internal IT teams to operate more strategically and provide service continuity. The continuing shortage and transience of skilled IT professionals within the market sets the stage for the increased adoption of DaaS in 2025. It frees up internal IT teams to work more strategically while continuing to provide a high level of service, extending these proven business outcomes with the wider integration of the as-a-Service model. Resourcing Solutions: Addressing Complex IT Needs in 2025 Partnering with a trusted IT provider is an effective strategy for addressing today's complex IT challenges. However, no single approach can address every IT requirement. When it comes to highly specialised or intricate projects, organisations often require talent embedded directly within their teams to ensure seamless execution and alignment with internal objectives. Expanding in-house IT teams to meet short-term or project-specific needs, however, is rarely straightforward. Recruiting full-time staff for temporary roles can be both costly and impractical, particularly in a labour market defined by intense competition for skilled professionals. This dynamic is set to become even more pronounced, as organisations grapple with increasing pressures to deliver complex IT initiatives to remain relevant and competitive. We anticipate resourcing solutions becoming a mainstay of the IT service delivery landscape in organisations moving forward. By enabling organisations to access a growing talent pool of adaptable, pre-vetted IT professionals - on flexible, short-term contracts or fixed day rates - the...
