Apple announced at it’s 2019’s World Developers Conference (WWDC) this week that "Sign In with Apple" feature  will become a mandatory update for all Apple developers.

The timing of this announcement is perfect. First of all, privacy is currently a hot topic that everybody is interested in. Apple is committed to improving security with new login features. Some of Apple's competitors with similar capabilities may track Internet users without their knowledge. Apple claims it will not do this. Apple’s security mechanism will use your Apple ID to log in to various online services. Not only does this keep your data safe, it also limits the amount of scam and spam you receive.

Large financial companies like banks and insurance companies are in no hurry to adopt blockchain technology despite an enormous potential, states the report of a major consulting company McKinsey. Earlier, McKinsey said that the progress in blockchain software developments is negligent despite massive investment flows.

Today many governments, large investment banks and suppliers of software solutions continue experimenting with blockchain systems thinking of reducing the costs, improve speed and transparency of the transactions in broad variety of the economy, including the financial realm.

Business owners are losing patience on software projects. They see and feel that competitors are advancing their business. They are pushing on their IT departments harder, pressing for more and faster delivery of software that will keep their companies in the digital race. They like what IT is delivering, but the challenge for IT managers is to keep up with the speed of software delivery with as few bugs as possible.

The latest survey of 310 IT executives, conducted by Forrester Consulting in partnership with Eggplant, finds that the majority of enterprise leaders, namely 70%, name the functional outcomes and software added value created by the software delivered as "good" or "excellent," . However, close to half feel things aren't just being delivered fast enough for their business. 46% of the respondents named the speed of testing as "average", "fair", or "poor", and 41% say the same about the speed of their overall custom application development. More than a third of all executives (36%) also rated the quality of code in development for testing as "average" or even worse.

But overall, C-suite executives are happy with the applications and solutions that come out of the pipeline. However, they are worried for the faster delivery of these apps.
