A Manhattan Federal Court judge on Friday extended the temporary restraining order that bars staffers from the so-called Department of Government Efficiency from accessing US Treasury Department data—which attorneys general from New York and other blue states have slammed as an unlawful threat to privacy—while she considers whether to impose a longer-term injunction.

After hearing some two hours of arguments, Judge Jeannette A. Vargas told lawyers for New York and allied states, and their opponents from the Department of Justice, “I do find good cause to extend the TRO as modified.” Vargas said she would soon issue her decision, but not today, to “give the court time to consider” the issues.

While the proceeding largely maintained the status quo, it also lifted the veil on just how little is known about DOGE’s access to information—and where it went.

When Vargas asked Jeffrey Oestericher, the Justice Department attorney representing Trump, on Friday whether any DOGE-accessed information had been shared outside of the Treasury Department, he said: “The short answer on that is we don’t presently know.”

“We’re performing a forensic analysis. What we can tell from the forensic analysis thus far is there were emails sent outside Treasury,” Oestericher said. “We do not know [the] content.”

Vargas asked: Wasn’t this problematic from a privacy standpoint?

“The short answer is no,” Oestericher said.

“During this time that the DOGE team members had access to this information, there were extensive mitigation efforts in place to prevent this precise harm.”

But Oestericher admitted at another point, “We candidly admit that there was some measure of increased risk, but we took all appropriate mitigation measures to mitigate that risk as much as possible.”

Vargas’ decision came six days after New York and allied litigants were granted a temporary restraining order that ultimately prohibited the Treasury Department from giving DOGE hires and special government employees access to sensitive data and computer systems. Donald Trump tapped Elon Musk to head DOGE, an agency the president created under the auspices of rooting out fraud and governmental waste—despite a dearth of evidence indicating fraud.

In issuing that temporary restraining order early February 8, Judge Paul A. Engelmayer said that the states suing Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent would “face irreparable harm in the absence of injunctive relief.”

Engelmayer noted that Treasury’s new policy, enacted at Trump’s direction, appears to allegedly “[expand] access to the paytment systems of the Bureau of Fiscal Services (BFS) to political appointees and ‘special government employees.’”

This, Engelmayer reasoned, represented a “risk that the new policy presents of the disclosure of sensitive and confidential information and the heightened risk that the systems in question will be more vulnerable than before to hacking.”

Engelmayer also said in his written decision that the states suing over Treasury’s policy change “have shown a likelihood of success on the merits of their claims, with the States’ statutory claims presenting as particularly strong.”

The complaint against Trump and Bessent repeatedly cited WIRED’s reporting that revealed how a 25-year-old engineer named Marko Elez, with ties to Musk, enjoyed read and write access to two Treasury Department systems responsible for virtually all payments made by the federal government. Tom Krause—who is on the DOGE team despite being CEO of Cloud Software Group—was also granted access to these capabilities.

Two sources told WIRED that Elez’s privileges allowed him not just to read but also write code for two of the most sensitive US government computer systems. These include the Payment Automation Manager and Secure Payment System at the Bureau of the Fiscal Service (BFS). These systems, which are kept on a secure mainframe, control government payments that total more than 20 percent of the US economy, WIRED previously reported.

In court papers filed February 13, New York and allies allege that Trump and his Treasury Department don’t even contest that states have a “clear and reasonable interest in protecting their confidential bank account numbers and other sensitive financial information, including details and amounts of payments, from unauthorized disclosure.” But this information was disclosed to two DOGE members, they claim, violating “numerous laws and regulations.”

New York and other states argued in that same filing that BFS’s development of “mitigation strategies” to reduce risk was testament to the “substantial and imminent” danger. They say that at least on one occasion, Elez was “mistakenly provided with ‘read/write permissions instead of read-only.’”

“But even with the more restricted ‘read-only’ access, Elez still had ‘the ability to view and query information and data’; in other words, he had access to the States’ sensitive financial information.” Despite the fact that Elez resigned when asked for comment by The Wall Street Journal about racist social media posts, the government didn’t provide any reassurance that he didn’t participate in improper activity, New York and its allies alleged. (Meanwhile, Musk suggested in a post on X, his social media platform, that Elez would be rehired, writing: “He will be brought back. To err is human, to forgive divine.”)

Andrew Amer, an attorney in New York state attorney general Letitia James’ office, said Friday that Elez and Krause “have no lawful job duty to access this information.”

Despite the government’s insistence that Elez was in a “sandbox environment” when he had access to the code, which they insist minimized risk, Amer said that wasn’t all that comforting.

“We know that the same engineer took screenshots of the data in the data system and that he may have given those screenshots to his supervisor,” Amer said.

Amer said the Justice Department’s insistence that Krause only had “over-the-shoulder access” didn’t inspire much confidence either.

“The fact that we don’t know if any information went beyond Treasury is a red flag that causes concern about the ethics issue,” Amer said. “This is especially important, as we do have people, especially Mr. Krause, who is simultaneously employed elsewhere outside Treasury.”

“You have somebody who’s been given access to source code within the bureau whose other job is CEO of one of the world’s largest software companies.”

“We are here because the states’ banking information has been accessed— that has happened,” Amer said at another point in court. “We know that the people who accessed it have been somewhat careless in the way they handled it.”

Amer also rejected any notion that DOGE acolytes’ access was normal. “This was not a Treasury function, this was building a new automated process to apply an ideological litmus test to funding requests. There’s nothing typical or normal in terms of Treasure functions about that.”

Trump’s camp has contended that his opponents are trying to thwart the White House’s right “to exercise politically accountable oversight of agency activities and to implement the president’s policy priorities.”

Treasury Department officials are responsible for liaising with the United States DOGE Service, which needs to have access to BFS systems, they argue, “to perform their Presidentially-directed mandate of maximizing efficiency and productivity, including ensuring data and payment integrity with respect to the 1.2 billion transactions and over $5 trillion in outlays handled by BFS,” they said in court papers.

Red states including Florida, Georgia, and Alabama have also entered the fray to show support for Trump. They contend in court papers that blue states’ opposition to DOGE meddling is unconstitutional. “This case involves an unprecedented assault on the separation of powers and the President’s authority under Article II of the Constitution,” they wrote. “Ultimately, Plaintiffs here are upset because one set of bureaucrats in the Executive Branch have access to data that they believe only other bureaucrats in the Executive Branch should have access to.”

“This type of fiddling around with the President’s prerogatives asks this Court to insert itself into core Executive decision-making regarding policy and personnel. The President is working to combat what former President Biden’s administration identified, at minimum, as hundreds of billions of dollars in fraud,” they wrote.

Hey! This is very random, but I saw that you work in cyber security right now. I work in data science, but I'm really interested in cyber security and considering making a switch. I was wondering what kind of cybersecurity work you do, and what has been the most helpful for you to learn what you need for your job!

Hi! Cybersecurity is a really broad field, and you can do a lot of different things depending on what your interests are.

My work is mostly focused around automating things for security, since my background is in programming. Automation is really helpful for speeding up boring, monotonous tasks that need to get done, but don't necessarily need a human involved. A good example is automated phishing analysis, since phishing reports are a big chunk of the cases that security analysts have to deal with, and an analyst usually follows the same few steps at the beginning. Rather than someone having to manually check the reputation of the sender domain, check the reputation of any links, and all of that every single time, we can build tools to automatically scan for things like that and then present the info to the analyst. The whole idea here is to automate the boring data retrieval stuff, since computers are good at that, and give the analyst more time for decision-making and analysis, since humans are good at that.

If you're coming from data science, you might be interested in detection engineering. Cybersecurity is essentially a data problem - we have a ton of logs from a ton of different sources (internal logs, threat intelligence feeds, etc.) - how do we sort through that data to highlight things that we want to pay attention to, and how can we correlate events from different sources? If you're into software development or want to stay more on the data science side, maybe you could also look into roles for software development at companies that have SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) products - these are essentially the big log repositories that organizations rely on for correlation and alerting.

As for starting to learn security, my general go-to recommendation is to start looking through the material for the Security+ certification. For better or worse, certifications are pretty big in security, much more so than other tech fields (to my knowledge). I'm a bit more hesitant to recommend the Security+ now, since CompTIA (the company that offers it) was bought by a private equity company last year. Everyone is kind of expecting the prices to go up and the quality to go down. (The Security+ exam costs $404 USD as of writing this, and I think I took mine for like $135ish with a student discount in 2022). However, the Security+ is still the most well-known and comprehensive entry-level certification that I'm aware of. You can (and should) study for it completely for free - check out Professor Messer's training videos on YouTube. There are also plenty of books out there if that's more of your thing. I'd say to treat the Security+ as a way to get a broad overview of security and figure out what you don't know. (It's certainly not a magic ticket to a job, no matter what those expensive bootcamps will tell you.)

If you aren't familiar with networking, it's worth checking out Professor Messer's Network+ training videos as well. You don't need to know everything on there, but having an understanding of ports, protocols, and network components and design is super useful. I hear a lot that the best security folks are often the ones who come from IT or networking or similar and have a really solid understanding of the fundamentals and then get into security. Don't neglect the basics!

One thing that I'll also add, based on conversations I've had with folks in my network… getting a job in cybersecurity is harder now than it used to be, at least in the US (where I am). There are a ton of very well-qualified people who have been laid off who are now competing with people trying to get into the field in the first place, and with the wrecking ball that Elon is taking to the federal government (and by extension, government contractors) right now… it's hard. There's still a need for skilled folks in cyber, but you're going to run into a lot of those "5 years of experience required for this entry-level job" kind of job postings.

On a slightly happier note, another thing you should do if you want to get into cyber is to stay up to date with what's happening in the industry! I have a masterpost that has a section with some of my favorite news sources. The SANS Stormcast is a good place to start - it's a 5 minute podcast every weekday morning that covers most of the big things. Black Hills Infosec also does a weekly news livestream on YouTube that's similar (but longer and with more banter). Also, a lot of infosec folks hang out on Mastodon & in the wider fediverse. Let me know if you want some recs for folks to follow over there.

The nice thing about cybersecurity (and computer-related fields in general, I find) is that there are a ton of free resources out there to help you learn. Sometimes it's harder to find the higher-quality ones, but let me know if there are any topics you're interested in & I'll see what I can find. I have a few posts in my cybersecurity tag on here that might help.

Thank you for your patience, I know you sent this in over a week ago lol but life has been busy. Feel free to send any follow-up questions if you have any!

In today’s globalized economy, outsourcing bookkeeping services has become a strategic solution for businesses looking to streamline operations, reduce overhead costs, and improve efficiency. Particularly in the UK and the Caribbean, companies are increasingly outsourcing their accounting needs to offshore experts in India. At the heart of this transformation lies the role of technology, which has revolutionized the way businesses integrate with outsourced bookkeeping services. Assist Bay, a leader in providing outsourced bookkeeping solutions, is harnessing modern tools to make this process seamless, efficient, and transparent.

The Growing Trend of Bookkeeping Outsourcing

Outsourcing bookkeeping services is a growing trend, especially in the UK and the Caribbean, where businesses are constantly seeking ways to reduce operational costs while maintaining high-quality financial management. Many businesses in these regions, especially small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), are turning to offshore solutions like those provided by Assist Bay, which is based in India. Outsourcing bookkeeping not only allows companies to access skilled accounting professionals at a fraction of the cost but also ensures that businesses can focus on their core activities while maintaining financial accuracy and compliance with local tax laws.

Why India for Outsourcing Bookkeeping?

India has long been a go-to destination for outsourcing services due to its large pool of skilled professionals, a robust IT infrastructure, and cost-efficiency.

The Role of Technology in Bookkeeping Outsourcing

As the landscape of outsourcing evolves, so does the technology that supports it. At Assist Bay, modern tools play a crucial role in making bookkeeping outsourcing seamless. Here’s how technology is transforming the process.

Cloud-Based Bookkeeping Software

One of the biggest advancements in the bookkeeping industry has been the shift to cloud-based platforms.

This integration ensures that businesses don’t have to deal with fragmented information. They can access consolidated financial data, reports, and analytics from one central location, making decision-making more efficient and informed.

4. Data Security and Compliance

Data security and compliance are top concerns for businesses when outsourcing their bookkeeping. In the UK and the Caribbean, businesses need to ensure that their financial data is protected and compliant with local regulations. Assist Bay employs the latest encryption technologies to safeguard sensitive financial information, ensuring that only authorized personnel have access. Moreover, Assist Bay stays up-to-date with changes in tax laws and accounting standards, ensuring that all bookkeeping practices meet local regulatory requirements. For businesses in the UK, this means adhering to HMRC standards, while for companies in the Caribbean, it involves compliance with local tax laws, which can differ from one island to another.

5. Real-Time Collaboration and Communication Tools

Technology has also improved communication between outsourced bookkeeping teams and businesses. Assist Bay uses collaborative tools like Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Zoom to ensure constant communication and immediate resolution of any issues. This ensures that clients in the UK and the Caribbean are always in the loop and can easily discuss any concerns with their bookkeeping team. Real-time communication tools also allow for faster decision-making and better collaboration on financial reports and business strategies. As a result, businesses can stay agile and responsive in today’s competitive environment.

6. Data Analytics and Reporting

With the help of modern tools, Assist Bay provides businesses in the UK and Caribbean with detailed financial analytics and real-time reports. By analysing financial data with AI-powered tools, Assist Bay helps businesses gain valuable insights into their spending habits, cash flow, and profitability. These reports can be customized to suit the specific needs of a business, giving stakeholders the information they need to make informed decisions. Whether it’s forecasting revenue, tracking expenses, or assessing tax liabilities, data-driven insights are now more accessible than ever before.

The Future of Bookkeeping Outsourcing

The future of bookkeeping outsourcing lies in the continued evolution of technology. As cloud computing, automation, and AI become more advanced, the role of technology in outsourcing will only grow. Assist Bay is at the forefront of this change, helping businesses in the UK and the Caribbean seamlessly integrate outsourced bookkeeping services with modern technology. By leveraging cutting-edge tools and maintaining a focus on security, accuracy, and compliance, Assist Bay ensures that businesses can confidently rely on outsourced bookkeeping services without compromising on quality. As the demand for outsourcing grows, businesses in the UK, Caribbean, and beyond will continue to benefit from the efficiency, cost savings, and strategic insights that modern technology offers. Outsourcing bookkeeping services to India is no longer just about saving costs — it’s about gaining a competitive advantage by leveraging the power of technology for smarter, more efficient financial management.

AI vs Jobs | Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Employment? | In Hindi

What is AI? What is Artificial Intelligence? What effect will AI have on jobs in the future? It is unknown that a lot of the customer care, customer care representatives, CC jobs will be taken over by robots. It is replacing jobs through AI. We have got a report from an analysis that by 2030, most of the jobs that will be there are manual jobs that use a lot of labor that will be replaced through AI.

There will also be generation of jobs through AI, how do I explain it, our third point is what is the role of skills in the job industries, what is the effect of AI on those industries, Shivani, today also I have come with a new topic, so today Your topic is about AI, everyone knows about AI, our topic is about this, so let's start the topic now, so first of all everyone's fear is about AI, about Artificial Intelligence that this Who AI is it, will it take away people's jobs or will it provide new opportunities, basically what is its conclusion, today we will.

Discuss it completely, so let's start the topic, first of all I will give a little brief to those who don't know, almost everyone will know but then Also for those who don't know what is AI, what is Artificial Intelligence, so Artificial Intelligence is a language that makes machines smart, basically if we talk about robotics or if we take the example of Czech GPT Check what is GPT, it is an AI machine, it is a software through which we can ask all the questions and we get answers to them, this is your AI Artificial Intelligence, it is your language which is made for machines, okay, I have told about AI I told you that AI is a technology that makes your machines smart and makes them react like humans. For example, what happens now is that if I am talking to a person sitting in front of me, I will ask him a question.

He will answer or he will ask a question and I will answer it, so a conversation is taking place there, so what AI does is that by using this technology, the machines, the computers, or whatever we are talking about, the machines can understand that. It makes them smart, it makes them so smart that they can answer our questions like there is analysis, there is weather analysis, or if I ask some question, take it through ChatGPT for example, then ChatGPT answers it, with whose help does it do that? It helps in the form of AI technology. Okay,

Now let's talk about it. If we move ahead in the topic, the topic is what effect will AI have on jobs in the future. I have discussed this in some parts. It is divided into some points, we start from that point, our first point is that how much loss is happening in jobs due to AI, okay first of all we are talking about the loss that is automation which Is it affecting the jobs? So first if we talk about it, let us take an example, I will take the example of a factory, even now it came to me that through amazononline.in, through AI, changes are taking place here.

So, now according to the report that we have got from an analysis, some people have estimated that by 2030, most of the jobs that will be there will be customer care jobs or factory workers jobs or such jobs which are very manual and very demanding. Those who use more labour will be replaced through AI, I may talk about robots or they will be replaced by such technology that requires more labour to do the work like factory, I may talk about data entry or customer Let me talk about care, there most of the jobs will be replaced by AI. So you have understood

What is the effect of automation, but wait, we will talk about it even after this. Now here I will talk about the second point. that jobs will also be generated by AI How do I tell the generation what is AI? It is a technology that has been created by humans, for humans only and the jobs are also going to humans only, but in this I will talk about how jobs will come from this.

This way AI will come through AI, AI training is basically machine learning, machine learning is a language of yours, which means that through AI, the jobs which are used in AI will come, jobs of data scientist, jobs of data analyst will come, which are still going on There has been a demand for Robotics Engineering, these are the jobs which are basically the jobs that are going to come up which are more into AI related, Artificial Intelligence related, interest related to machine learning, all those jobs are going to come up in large numbers,

I am talking about coding Let me say that these jobs are going to come and the jobs which involve manual labor will be greatly affected, they will be replaced through AI, now after that we will talk about the role of skills in this, okay our third point is that What is the role of skills in this? Now I will also say this thing that I also explain to people that you need to upgrade, it is not that everyone will lose their job, it is not like that at all but yes a very big impact is going to come if you do not have the skills like you have right now. It was

Taking 10 people to do the work. Cost cutting will start. The labour or human required to do the work will be reduced a bit. The skilled people who have a lot of skills will be retained. Those who are doing only one monotone job, working on the same skills, will not upgrade themselves, their job is going to be affected a lot, this thing is going to have a huge impact, so if you want to save your job or If you want to remain in the market, then for that you will have to upgrade yourself and add new technology and new skills.

If you do not add new technology and new skills, then it will have a very negative impact and this It is absolutely true that this will happen and we will have to upgrade ourselves, everybody will have to learn new technology, new skills, new things, basically. Now such work, you have to be a multitasker, if you are not a multitasker then AI can replace you in this, there is no need to worry, you need to upgrade your skills, our last point which is the fourth point is that on job industries What is the effect of AI on the industries?

If I talk about what happened recently that robotics is a robot that helped in an operation, then we are talking about this in health care, very fast changes are taking place in health care People are using this technology to know the problems in health care in more detail. After that we talk about education, so now through AI there are many personalized learning courses, learning things, these are Things are also being provided, after that we talk about your education system, after that we talk about e-commerce, so

How Do Market Research and Competitive Analysis? – Types with Examples 

Products that do not satisfy customer needs and wants fail to perform well in market dynamics, affecting your sales revenue. However, market research and analytics help you estimate consumer behavior. Corporate leaders also create competitive strategies using customer insights discovered by market research consulting partners. So, this post will explain how to do market research and competitive analysis. 

What is Market Research? 

Market research involves interviews, surveys, social listening, and media coverage analytics to acquire valuable customer insights. Therefore, businesses employ market research consulting firms to improve their understanding of consumer preferences. 

The obtained insights allow companies to revise their pricing strategies and marketing efforts to attract new customers and retain existing ones. Besides, such data-driven pricing, marketing, and innovation strategies are less vulnerable to human errors, a significant drawback of empirical business development methods. 

Enterprises use market research to minimize product launch risks. A marketing analytics company also delivers transparent and flexible reports to research what promotional strategies drive the most engagement from target customer profiles. 

What is Competitive Analytics? 

Competitive analytics leverages statistical modeling and automation technologies to identify methods to help you overcome your competition and increase your market share. For example, marketing research and analytics firms can guide you in optimizing your internal operations to compete more aggressively. 

Consider how inefficient allocation of resources affects all enterprises. If two companies target the same customer segment, the more efficient company will succeed. After all, corporate competitiveness improves when a business reduces the irresponsible use of company resources. Later, it can transfer the related financial benefits to the customers, i.e., rationalizing prices. 

Simultaneously, you want to know how your competitors plan to increase their market position. However, they will not share such confidential intelligence on public platforms. 

Therefore, market research consulting teams will develop machine learning (ML) models to process your competitors’ press releases. ML facilitates modern predictive analytics and helps companies forecast how competitors plan to grow their business. 

How to Conduct Market Research and Competitive Analysis? 

Goal determination is the first step in conducting market research or competitive analysis. If a business invests in market research consulting without clearly communicating its envisioned objectives, it will experience disappointment due to directionless competitive analysis or macroeconomic surveys. 

Later, study the available technologies and how implementing them will affect the company financially. For example, standard marketing analytics tools benefit a regional company. Similarly, a global business firm will require scalable, automated analytics software to generate high-quality reports. 

Finally, you want to specify a timeframe. Otherwise, monitoring the progress of your market research efforts will become daunting. Moreover, the risk of scheduling conflicts increases without time-bound activities. Financial planning also depends on the time factor for interest estimations associated with borrowed capital resources. 

Organizations have distinct business objectives, risk dynamics, and data processing requirements. Therefore, study the following market research and competitive analysis techniques. 

Part 1 – Types of Market Research Services 

1| Primary Research 

It is primary market research when a marketing analytics company interviews customers, suppliers, and employees. After all, the collected customer insights originate at the source, enhancing the quality of your competitive analytics operations in market research. You also get ownership rights to the resulting databases. 

Such original research helps you create thought leadership content, establish authority, and acquire unique strategic foresight. Sometimes, primary research integrates into whitepapers, case studies, and investment relations (IR) disclosures, increasing the trust in the brand among stakeholders. 

2| Secondary Research 

Finding customer insights through social listening and media coverage analytics for secondary research primarily concentrates on publicly available intelligence gathered by somebody else. Also, the scope of market research consulting teams revolves around magazines, social media platforms, consumer discussion forums, and global news publications. 

Secondary market research relies on already available intelligence resources. Therefore, most data in a secondary research project will have third-party owners. The hired marketing analytics company might use the editorial reproduction freedoms often governed by fair use or educational intent principles to help you in your marketing efforts. 

Still, organizations must practice proper caution since different secondary data sources can be prone to manipulative content and misinterpreted perspectives on business-critical ideas. Assessing the authoritative qualities and historical reputation of each data source can become easier with the help of a market research consulting firm. 

3| Manual Research 

Small businesses and young social media accounts can evaluate their growth, revenue, and competitiveness using simple analytics for customer insights. Remember, they generate fewer data points, eliminating any necessity for extensive database processing. 

Nevertheless, manual market research suffers from a more prominent risk of exposure to human errors. For example, psychological issues and physical limits often prevent your team members from developing holistic data models efficiently. So, manual research efforts are no longer relevant. Besides, enterprises have adopted advanced marketing analytics. 

4| Automated Research 

Machine learning allows for self-learning software applications, i.e., they can learn multiple tasks that usually require human intervention. Likewise, artificial intelligence (AI) enables automated marketing research and analytics through abilities similar to idea synthesis. 

Market research consulting will offer data gathering, validation, and cleaning automation. You will have access to more extensive data throughout the day and night. 

Corporations save a lot of time and human effort when ML models extract customer insights via analytics. Additionally, such technologies eliminate ambiguity in competitive analysis and market research by facilitating accelerated data validation. 

5| Qualitative Research 

Customers might complain about a product feature in their social media posts or consumer discussion forums. Some users will also give you meaningful feedback using highly descriptive texts. Additionally, you want to analyze product ratings and reviews if you operate an e-commerce business division. 

However, software applications need more help understanding meaning and emotions when processing qualitative consumer responses. Qualitative marketing research implements natural language processing (NLP) algorithms for sentiment analytics. Therefore, categorizing unstructured data becomes seamless. 

6| Quantitative Research 

The customer rating system varies from website to website. Still, it contains numerical data manageable using straightforward mathematical programs. So, quantitative market research gathers more structured data. 

Analyzing properly structured data does not require extensive computing resources. Businesses utilize quantitative research in financial modeling and total quality management (TQM) instead of sentiment analytics. They prioritize the quantitative methods for these two operations because the core reporting systems are well-structured and standardized. 

Moreover, it does not make any business sense to use a lot of computing power when the marginal gains in performance contribute little to ultimate goals, like revenue enhancement and market share increment. Therefore, professional consulting firms specializing in market research technologies assist enterprises in deciding when to use quantitative or qualitative analytics for customer insights. 

Part 2 – Types of Competitive Analytics 

1| Internal Competitive Research and Analysis 

Every established marketing analytics company treats an organization’s competitiveness using a systems approach. So, internal competitive analytics investigates how an enterprise manages its supply chain, professional networks, business units, and investor relations. 

For example, a business might suffer above-average employee attrition during a specific financial year. It can ask a competitive analytics company to inspect how such problematic events in retaining talent affect its performance. 

The consulting analysts will then reveal the impact on the company through statistical modeling. Later, the business can revise its talent acquisition processes, employment contracts, and workplace environment to counter the adverse effect of employee attention using the consultants’ insights. 

2| External Competitive Analytics 

A company’s performance relies on factors outside its direct control, and consulting firms research these external market forces. It is external competitive analytics with a broad scope of data gathering, validation, modeling, and reporting global customer insights. 

Consider how currency fluctuations influence the financial planning done by import-export businesses. Likewise, natural disasters introduce systemic issues across transportation, communication, and healthcare infrastructure. 

How can an organization become more resilient against the losses resulting from earthquakes, avalanches, tsunamis, landslides, or other catastrophes caused by malicious actors? Competitive analysis and market research can give you the data necessary to evaluate such business queries. 

Most market research consulting teams consider the socioeconomic and political stability indicators for such inquiries. After all, enterprises of all scales must be attentive to external competitive risks. 

3| Competitor Analytics 

Competitor analysis has a narrower scope since it concentrates all the marketing research and analytics activities on your top business rivals. It is a subset of a more holistic competitive analysis. Therefore, it takes less time, consumes a few computing resources, and delivers reports fast. 

You can utilize computer analytics for peer benchmarking in a target industry. This activity allows enterprises to compare their performance with how their business rivals perform in the same industry. However, computer analytics becomes more complex if a company serves multiple customer segments, leading to the application of advanced tools to acquire insights. 

5| Descriptive and Diagnostic Analysis for Competitive Intelligence 

Descriptive analytics explains a company’s past performance so that the leadership, management, marketing, and sales teams can learn how their strategies have contributed to business objectives. 

Diagnostic analytics adds value to historical performance records by identifying methods to improve productivity, capital efficiency, and risk assessment. It helps companies solve the problems encountered in the preceding business quarters. 

6| Predictive and Prescriptive Analytics 

Predictive analytics utilizes machine learning to estimate how market forces, consumer preferences, regulatory policies, and competitor strategies will evolve. Corporations also use it to eliminate the gaps in market research and competitive analysis databases. 

Prescriptive analytics offers practical solutions to combat business risks identified by predictive ML models. It is vital to preventing or mitigating the potential losses attributed to market volatility, the introduction of new laws, and macroeconomic events. 

Conclusion 

Leveraging analytics to identify customer insights is the most prominent advantage of marketing research. Besides, enterprises utilize primary research in authoritative content. Additionally, secondary market research finds valuable trends across social media platforms and review sites. 

Qualitative research differs from quantitative analytics since the raw datasets vary in structure. Meanwhile, automated aggregation tools have replaced manual data collection procedures. If you want to do market research and competitive analysis, consider these developments before hiring a consultant.
