Planned Apple News Subscription Service Could Address Fake News, Pay Walls
Apple plans to launch a news subscription service within the next year.
The new service reportedly will combine features from its recent Texture
acquisition and Apple's existing news app. Texture's technology and its
employees will be integrated into the Apple News team, which will build
the new service. The company will split revenues with publishers.

Closing the Enterprise Security Skills Gap
The security skills gap has become a topic of acute interest among
practitioners responsible for building security teams for their
organizations -- and keeping them running smoothly. It impacts
everything from how they staff, how they cultivate and develop their
workforces, and how they train, to the operational controls they put in
place, and potentially numerous other things.

Demandbase Debuts ABM Analytics for Optimal Marketing Performance
Demandbase officially announced ABM Analytics during its annual ABM
Innovation Summit. The new tech, part of the company's account-based
marketing platform, leverages its account identification technology to
help marketers analyze performance from advertising to pipeline and
