Ransomware Recovery Is The New Cybersecurity Battleground
Michael Wu is GM and President of Phison Technology Inc. (USA), a leading provider of NAND controllers and NAND storage solutions. For years, the cybersecurity conversation has centered on prevention through stronger firewalls, smarter endpoint detection and more rigorous employee training. These measures will always be essential. But adversaries increasingly go after not just production systems, but the backups organizations depend on to recover.

Why Storage Density Is Becoming The New Currency Of Data Centers
Michael Wu is GM and President of Phison Technology Inc. (USA), a leading provider of NAND controllers and NAND storage solutions. Data center operators face a significant constraint: Workloads are growing faster than the space, power and budget available to support them. AI has intensified that pressure, changing how infrastructure leaders think about storage—not simply as a place to put data, but as a lever for controlling cost, energy use and physical footprint.
Amber CEO: A Confession and Rebirth of a 'Wayward' Public Company Boss
Author: Michael Wu, Founder of Amber Group From an outsider's perspective, Amber's journey over the past few years seems like a comeback story: it nearly collapsed during the FTX crisis but survived; it endured the bear market of 2023 and awaited the bull market; it completed its listing and rang the bell on Nasdaq. The plot is perfect. But only I know that the years 2024 and 2025 were the most torturous years of my nine-year entrepreneurial journey.

What’s Holding Back Local Agentic AI
Michael Wu is GM and President of Phison Technology Inc. (USA), a leading provider of NAND controllers and NAND storage solutions. Agentic AI is moving from concept to implementation. Developers are building systems that can plan, use tools and carry context across multiple steps rather than respond to a single prompt. NVIDIA is expanding the ecosystem around open frameworks like NemoClaw, while OpenAI is advancing model capabilities.
Digitized capillary surface profile tables from Bashforth and Adams, 1883
Abstract Bashforth and Adams (1883) published solutions to the Young–Laplace equation governing axisymmetric capillary surfaces, providing tabulated dimensionless profile coordinates (x/b and z/b) as functions of the angle (Φ) and the dimensionless capillary parameter (β) for sessile drops, pendant drops, and capillary menisci. These tables have remained the authoritative reference for surface tension analysis by the axisymmetric drop shape method for over 140 years.

The Next NAND Decade: Why Supply Can’t Catch Demand The Way It Used To
Michael Wu is GM and President of Phison Technology Inc. (USA), a leading provider of NAND controllers and NAND storage solutions. For decades, the NAND flash market followed a familiar pattern. Periods of oversupply drove prices down, manufacturers cut production and shortages and pricing spikes followed, which led to fab expansion and lowered demand. The cycle repeated.
AI in Financial Services: Why Finance Is Moving from Platforms to Operating Systems
Three converging forces — AI in financial services as a workflow engine, digital asset infrastructure as mature financial plumbing, and institutional demand for both speed and trust — are quietly reshaping the architecture of financial services. For the past decade, financial services competed largely at the interface layer: better apps, better onboarding flows, better dashboards, and better consumer experiences. The firms that built the most intuitive screens generally won. That era is ending.
Third-Party Observation: The “Invisible Sniper” On The Patent Battlefield
Michael Wu’s articles from Chang Tsi & Partners are most popular: within Intellectual Property topic(s) with Finance and Tax Executives in South America In today’s increasingly competitive intellectual property landscape, the invention patent risks faced by companies are no longer limited to granted valid patents, but also extend to pending patent applications under substantial examination.
Data Storage Becomes The New Darling Of AI In 2026
Michael Wu is GM and President of Phison Technology Inc. (USA), a leading provider of NAND controllers and NAND storage solutions. For years, storage sat quietly in the background of enterprise infrastructure. It was necessary but unglamorous, and rarely the centerpiece of innovation. But 2026 marks a decisive shift. As AI moves from experimentation and pilot projects to the critical systems that run the business, data is the pacing force.

How To Ensure AI Accuracy Starts In The Storage Stack
Michael Wu is GM and President of Phison Technology Inc. (USA), a leading provider of NAND controllers and NAND storage solutions. getty When enterprises talk about improving AI accuracy, the focus often favors bigger models, more GPUs or new algorithms. But in many cases, accuracy gaps stem less from the model itself and more from the data path that feeds and updates it.
Oral Diet Outcomes and Tracheostomy Avoidance After Submental Flap Reconstruction of Oral and Oropharyngeal Defects
1 Introduction The submental island flap can be used for reconstruction of a variety of defects ranging from the oral cavity (OC) to the skull base [1-4].

Is SaaS Really Dead?
Recently, a heated conversation instigated by a News Stack article has made its rounds among the tech and investor community, claiming that LLM agents are going to kill SaaS. While such a bold statement is certainly attention-grabbing, sweeping generalizations like this are seldom true. The reality is more nuanced. While some SaaS will die, some will likely remain and even thrive. Let’s try to understand why.

Anti-PD-1 therapy in unresectable desmoplastic melanoma: the phase 2 SWOG S1512 trial - Nature Medicine
|
Abstract Desmoplastic melanoma is a distinct subtype of melanoma known to have preexisting immune infiltrates and high ultraviolet light damage, resulting in a high tumor mutational burden. We hypothesized that this may result in high response rates with single-agent anti-programmed death protein 1 (PD-1) therapy. SWOG S1512 was a two-cohort clinical trial testing the activity of pembrolizumab in patients with surgically resectable (cohort A) and unresectable (cohort B) desmoplastic melanoma.

RAQ Issue 232: Boost Converter Combines Silent Switcher Technology and Input Disconnect for Performance and Protection
What are some concerns with designing and using boost converters? Some key concerns with boost converters are high switching noise, efficiency limitations, and lack of protection mechanisms. High switching noise can lead to increased electromagnetic interference (EMI), which can make it difficult to meet regulatory standards on EMI. The efficiency of a boost converter decreases as the output voltage to input voltage ratio increases due to the increased power loss from switches and the inductor.
Exploring the Association Between Clinical Features and CBCT Findings in TMJ Degenerative Joint Disease
1 Introduction According to the diagnostic criteria for temporomandibular disorders (TMD) for clinical and research applications (DC/TMD), pathologic changes in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) may indicate the presence of degenerative joint disease (DJD) [1]. DJD, or osteoarthritis, occurs when the articular cartilage in the TMJ deteriorates, and osseous changes in the mandibular condyle or the temporal bone structures occur [2, 3].
