The May 2026 edition of Moonshot Insider focuses on business technology optimization, IT performance reviews, software utilization, artificial intelligence readiness, cybersecurity, access management, workflow efficiency, automation, and scalable IT strategy for growing businesses. The newsletter explains how companies often lose value through underused software features, redundant platforms, unused licenses, subscription drift, manual workarounds, disconnected systems, and poor technology alignment, emphasizing the importance of regular technology performance reviews to improve ROI, reduce unnecessary software costs, streamline operations, and ensure employees are getting full value from the tools the business already owns. It also explores AI readiness for business, warning that artificial intelligence can amplify inefficient workflows, inconsistent data, weak permissions, and disorganized systems if the underlying technology foundation is not prepared, while recommending workflow mapping, data organization, system consolidation, permission cleanup, and stronger IT governance before implementing AI automation. Additional insights highlight the importance of building cybersecurity into daily business operations through role-based access controls, standardized onboarding and offboarding, two-factor authentication, security reviews, system visibility, and proactive management of user permissions and technology tools, helping businesses reduce security risks, eliminate redundant systems, improve operational efficiency, control IT spending, and create a more secure, scalable technology environment that supports long-term business growth and digital transformation.
