Royex Technologies: AI spiraling business growth
'From real-time decision-making to predictive analytics, AI empowers companies to move faster, operate smarter, and serve customers more efficiently,' said Roy, author of four AI and technology focused books.
Reactive management to proactive strategy
'It's transforming manual tasks into intelligent workflows, enabling businesses to scale without proportional increases in cost or workforce. More importantly, it's helping leaders shift from reactive management to proactive strategy, based on data-driven insights. The real transformation lies in how AI allows companies to focus more on innovation and customer experience—two key drivers of long-term success,' explained Roy.
Significant drop in operational cost of business
Sharing an example of how AI transformation is scaling business operations, Roy said one of Royex Technologies' product EYAANA – an AI-first communication platform has made a positive impact on multiple industries. In particular, it has made massive strides with a real estate company where EYAANA has automated over 80% of lead interactions for the business across phone, WhatsApp, and web chat.
'This has resulted in a massive response time drop from hours to seconds. Beside, conversion rates improved by 27%, and the sales team could focus on closing deals rather than chasing leads. All this has led to a significant reduction in operational costs, for the real estate company as AI has replaced two full-time resources.'
Maximising human resources
In the hospitality sector, Royex Technologies partnered with a hotel group that previously had a team of 16 people managing customer support across WhatsApp, web chat, and social media. After integrating EYAANA's AI agents across all platforms, they were able to reallocate 12 staff members to other departments, retaining just two people for overseeing customer service operations.
What previously required 16 human agents is now managed with an AI-augmented team of two people resulting in a cost saving of nearly 75% in that department, while maintaining 24/7 responsiveness and improved customer satisfaction. Beside the reallocation of the staff to other departments also meant their productivity was put to full use elsewhere.
Giving clarity to businesses to move faster
Strategically, AI creates value in multiple areas. It helps businesses better understand customer behavior and forecast future trends, enabling more personalized and targeted offerings. Roy said: 'Pricing and marketing strategies can be optimized using real-time data, while AI-powered tools support improved risk management and fraud detection. In supply chain operations, AI enhances planning, demand forecasting, and logistics efficiency.
Additionally, by automating repetitive tasks and augmenting human capabilities, AI significantly improves employee productivity. In essence, AI acts as a decision-making accelerator, giving businesses the clarity and confidence to move faster and adapt smarter in a competitive environment.'

Qualys Unveils Agentic AI-Powered Risk Operations Center
Qualys has unveiled several new Agentic AI capabilities on the Qualys platform. The new AI fabric introduces a marketplace of Cyber Risk AI Agents delivering real-time risk insights across all attack surfaces, prioritized by business impact. Additionally, it reduces risk and operational costs by autonomously remediating with speed, scale, and accuracy, all while powering a smarter, more efficient Risk Operations Center (ROC). Amid a surge in the volume and sophistication of cyber threats, amplified by the growing complexity of an ever-evolving attack surface, teams are grappling with millions of exposures while lacking the context to map them against business priorities. Without self-orchestrating AI agents to turn data into insights, and prioritize and remediate risks in real time, security teams face manual bottlenecks and lingering exposures. Qualys addresses this with Agentic AI—eliminating repetitive tasks and enabling autonomous, risk-focused workflows that empower teams and accelerate protection. 'Cybersecurity has never been able to keep pace with the volume of enterprise exposures due to human-scale prioritization and remediation,' said Tyler Shields, principal analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG). 'Integrating Agentic AI into the Qualys platform marks a major leap—from reactive response to real-time risk reduction. With autonomous remediation and intelligent prioritization, this type of innovation enables faster risk reduction, more efficient resource usage, and greater accuracy in recommended actions. This evolution shifts security teams from tactical responders to strategic agentic AI orchestrators, bringing us closer to a future of self-healing cybersecurity.' By embedding Agentic AI into Enterprise TruRisk Management (ETM), Qualys enhances its risk-centric automation capabilities—delivering faster, more intelligent decision-making. Already a leading cornerstone of the ROC, ETM aggregates exposures to measure, communicate, and eliminate cyber risk aligned to business value. Now, with the new AI fabric, Qualys delivers pre-built AI agents that automate threat prioritization and drive remediation strategies tailored to each organization's risk appetite and environment. It also introduces the Cyber Risk Assistant—a prompt-driven interface that helps teams navigate the risk journey, translate millions of exposures, and deliver context-aware risk insights with autonomous operations. The Qualys Marketplace of ready-to-use AI agents delivers: Continuous Risk Insights and Prioritization from Fragmented Exposures – Pre-built AI agents autonomously and adaptively drive every step of the cyber risk journey from continuously discovering your external attack surface with a hacker's-eye view, to proactively assessing risk against trending industry threats, and prioritizing those risks based on the context of your unique assets and environment. Thus, helping organizations reduce the cost and complexity of risk operations. Adaptive Remediation for the Highest Security Posture – With attackers exploiting vulnerabilities in under 18 days, cybersecurity and IT teams are focused on reducing mean time to remediation (MTTR). Adaptive Risk Remediation AI Agents like the Microsoft Patch Tuesday Lifecycle Agent continuously triangulate prioritized vulnerabilities, correlated remediation techniques, and asset context to drive faster, more transparent risk remediation. This reduces cost and time to close vulnerabilities. Build Your Own AI Agent – Security teams can create custom, no-code, pretrained AI agents tailored to their specific business needs. These agents can be trained to perform specialized tasks autonomously and reused as needed—enabling scalable, repeatable automation for risk management workflows unique to each organization. 'Qualys Agentic AI, embedded into Enterprise TruRisk Management is transforming how organizations manage cyber risk and powering a smarter, more agile Risk Operations Center,' said Sumedh Thakar, president and CEO of Qualys. 'It's ushering in a new era where CISOs can augment their security teams with intelligent AI agents that perform autonomous analysis and take decisive, high-impact actions to reduce risk faster, more strategically, and with greater efficiency.'

These enhancements reaffirm F5's commitment to protecting modern, AI-driven infrastructures by enabling organisations to securely optimise, scale, and orchestrate AI applications. Meeting Modern Data Protection Challenges As businesses adopt AI and hybrid cloud technologies, sensitive data often moves across encrypted traffic and unapproved AI tools, creating security blind spots. Traditional security methods struggle to detect or prevent data leaks from these complex environments. F5 answers this challenge with tools that allow organisations of all sizes to achieve key compliance and security outcomes, such as: Detect, classify, and stop data leaks in encrypted and AI-driven traffic in real time. Prevent risks from unauthorised AI use (Shadow AI) and sensitive data exposure. Apply consistent policies across applications, APIs, and AI services to maintain security and compliance. 'The core tension in every boardroom today is the race to adopt AI versus the mandate to protect the firm's data', said Kunal Anand, Chief Innovation Officer at F5. 'Forcing a choice between the two is a losing strategy. We're eliminating that choice. By providing deep visibility into encrypted AI conversations, we're giving leaders the controls to stop data leakage and govern AI use, effectively turning the CISO from a gatekeeper into the primary enabler of secure innovation'. New Features and Capabilities in F5 AI Gateway Data leakage detection and prevention capabilities are coming to F5 AI Gateway, planned for later this quarter, powered by technology F5 recently acquired from LeakSignal. This new functionality examines AI prompts and responses to spot sensitive data such as personal information and applies customer-defined policies to redact, block, or log it. With the integration and ongoing development of this AI data protection technology, F5 expands its ability to inspect in-transit data, applying policies to secure sensitive information before it leaves the network. This addition simplifies compliance and reduces risk across hybrid and multicloud deployments. Key new features include: Real-time detection of sensitive data during AI interactions. Policy enforcement to protect and redact sensitive data as it enters AI environments as well as protect data before it leaves approved environments. Detailed reports and audit logs integrated with SIEM tools. These updates directly address risks, such as the leakage of sensitive data when using AI systems, and help organizations maintain compliance requirements. F5 BIG-IP SSL Orchestrator to Expand to Manage AI Risks To tackle the risks posed by Shadow AI, F5 is announcing plans to enhance BIG-IP SSL Orchestrator to offer AI data protection by delivering real-time visibility into encrypted traffic flows. This approach enables organisations to detect, classify, and block unauthorised AI use and sharing of sensitive data in-transit to maintain compliance while permitting authorised traffic and enforcing corporate-acceptable use of AI technologies. The solution will deliver unparalleled visibility into AI data flows by decrypting encrypted traffic at scale to enhance inspection with no performance loss and provide centralised dashboards and reporting for audits and investigations, with planned availability in late 2025.
