AI adoption is easy to talk about. The harder question is whether the work itself looks different. During GFI Software's AI-first transformation, that distinction became visible in the day-to-day: which workflows changed, which capabilities expanded, and which teams were actually producing things they could not before. In Entrepreneur UK, GFI Software CEO Eric Vaughan shares the questions he now uses to evaluate adaptation and high performance as roles evolve.

What does AI look like inside the actual work of an AI-DNA company? At ZEBR.AI Roadshow Praha 2026, hosted by ZEBRA SYSTEMS s.r.o., three GFI Software leaders will answer that from different parts of the company. CEO Eric Vaughan will show how agents can assemble a sourced account picture in seconds and what that changes at the leadership level. Roopal Vegad will run practical AI use cases live, using ordinary conversational language rather than carefully engineered prompts. Jozef Kačala will walk through how GFI connects fragmented customer data and applies AI inside a live sales process. Three sessions grounded in how the work is actually being done at GFI Software today. Event details and registration: https://hubs.li/Q04yrmL_0 #GFISoftware #ZEBRAI #ZEBRAIRoadshow #Cybersecurity

The person who built a workflow has years of good reasons for every step in it. That experience is valuable. It can also make a new way of working harder to adopt when the job changes underneath it. CEO Eric Vaughan explores that tension in Entrepreneur UK, drawing on what he learned during IgniteTech's AI-first transformation. His argument makes an important distinction around experience: tenure becomes especially valuable when it is paired with adaptation. He also shares the questions he uses to determine whether yesterday's high performance still reflects today's work.

An AI-generated answer can sound confident even when the information behind it is incomplete. That makes the design of the surrounding workflow critical. In ZDNET’s new article on human-in-the-loop AI, Eric Vaughan discusses grounding systems in trusted information and defining clear thresholds for when a decision should move to human review. The article brings together four expert perspectives on building accountability into higher-risk AI workflows.

As AI takes on more operational responsibility, the boundaries around what it can decide become increasingly important. ZDNET brought together four AI experts, including Eric Vaughan, to examine how organizations are designing those boundaries in practice. Grounding, approval requirements, intelligent routing, internal risk thresholds and audit trails all play a role in determining when an AI system can proceed and when human review should enter the workflow.

When a firewall gap, an unpatched laptop or one phishing email gets through, the workday stops. Sales calls drop off the network. Payroll can't run. Customer files sit exposed. Remote access becomes the opening, not the convenience. GFI KerioControl secures network access, GFI LanGuard AI keeps devices patched and GFI MailEssentials AI filters dangerous email before it reaches staff.

A network problem rarely arrives with a clear diagnosis. A video call starts breaking up. A business application feels slower than usual. An upload that normally takes minutes starts dragging. Someone notices the symptom, and IT still has to find the cause. That is where visibility and control work together. GFI ClearView AI helps teams understand where bandwidth is going and identify likely performance problems. GFI Exinda AI gives critical traffic priority when network demand rises. Together, they give IT and MSPs a clearer path from seeing the problem to acting on it.
