A Year of Transformation: Reflecting on 2024's Journey in Tech and Beyond

This is a submission for the 2025 New Year Writing challenge: Retro’ing and Debugging 2024.

As we are ushering into a new year which is a perfect square 2025 in mathematically terms it's time to pause and reflect on to the whirlwind that was 2024 back in the year that gone.

The year 2024 was marked by remarkable advancements in technology, specially in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). The usage of AI into everyday applications reached new heights, making day to day tasks more efficient and in-turn creating more opportunities for innovation. Parallelly the challenges posed by cyber crimes also enhanced. We have seen global impacts due to misbehaving of application updates.

on personal front also 2024 was a year of introspection and growth. Embracing new learning experiences in both professional development and personal hobbies. And as I say frequently, being in IT sector, you can not leave learning.

Achievements

  • First of all I promoted in my organization
  • I have secured coveted Certified Information Security Manager (CISM) certificate.
  • Utilizing generative AI ChatGPT

I was learning React JS front end and in this journey of self learning, I have achieved many milestone like utilizing react-admin framework. I also implemented two-factor authentication using Authenticator tools with react-admin framework. It was a very challenging job to include two-factor alongside react-admin authentication as there is no tutorial available for it. But this is very much required in the era of AI infused cyber threats to secure your applications.
