[Tip of the Week](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/tag/tip-of-the-week/?ts=markdown)

Did you miss any of the top [Palo Alto Networks news and happenings](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/category/news-of-the-week/) from the past week? We've got them all for you here! Come back every Friday to learn the latest.

Following his discovery of [3 vulnerabilities in Microsoft Internet Explorer last month](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/2013/11/palo-alto-networks-finds-critical-vulnerabilities-latest-version-internet-explorer/), Palo Alto Networks researcher Bo Qu has [identified another](http://bit.ly/1hKRYFF).

This [TechDay article](http://bit.ly/1brO0ZZ) \& this [Corporate Risk \& Insurance article](http://bit.ly/1cDLGUo) share some of our 2014 predictions.

[Danelle Au](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/author/danelle/) details the practical ways to plan for network security in 2014 in this week's [SecurityWeek article](http://bit.ly/1du3gJf).

Read comments from [Scott Simkin](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/author/scott-simkin/) on the worst data breaches of 2013 in his two-part blog series: [part 1](http://bit.ly/JjrDAy), [part 2](http://bit.ly/1cqUJVh).

The [Ignite2014](http://bit.ly/1baob3H) [Call for Speakers](http://bit.ly/1bl1Q0R) deadline has been extended to 12/31! Don't miss your last chance to present to your industry peers.

This week we added three more predictions on what we expect from the industry next year:

* [Palo Alto Networks](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/author/palo-alto-networks-staff/) experts weigh in on what [mobile security](http://bit.ly/1iHbMeq) will look like in 2014
* [Scott Gainey](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/author/scott-gainey/) looks at [dominant industry trends](http://bit.ly/1bUDxMT), including how detection time will change:
* Danelle Au gives us her thoughts on [data center](http://bit.ly/IDSYwD) in the coming year, including Zero Trust network segmentation \& software defined "anything"

The [Tip of the Week](http://bit.ly/1bWHhNX) from [Isabelle Dumont](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/blog/author/isabelledumont/) helps you have the ability to confidently say "yes" to applications that support business processes, without adding undue risk or complexity.
