The new 2.4.0 release delivers complete protection for your entire Quality Assurance (QA) workloads in Azure DevOps. Teams on platforms hosted locally in Windows can now secure them with the AES encryption compliant with the federal, enterprise-grade FIPS standards. This release also packs other notable upgrades, including seamless Active Directory integration, a smarter repository exclusion mechanism, and full German language support. Dive into the full breakdown below.

On July 3, 2026, the Albanian communications authority (AKEP), the operator of the.AL country-code top-level domain (TLD) of Albania, attempted a DNSSEC key rollover. Something went wrong, resulting in DNSSEC validation failures. Any validating DNS resolver receiving these signatures was required by the DNSSEC specification to reject them and return errors to clients. That includes 1.1.1.1, the public DNS resolver operated by Cloudflare.

Bot mitigation is an adversarial game: attackers adapt, defenders respond, and the cycle continues. At Cloudflare, we stay ahead by combining visibility across our global network with signals from the client-side environment. At the network level, we analyze over 1 trillion requests per day to understand reputation, patterns, and anomalies across more than 20% of the web.

RSA and ECC, cryptographic algorithms that we’ve all relied on for decades, are vulnerable to the attack of sufficiently advanced quantum computers. Such quantum computers do not exist yet, but they seem to be coming sooner than expected. Luckily, the solution is already available: migrate to ML-KEM encryption and ML-DSA signatures, which are designed to be resistant to quantum attack. They were standardized in 2024 by the U.S.

GitGuardian is now live on the Kiro Powers marketplace. Install the Power once, and Kiro's agent scans for exposed secrets automatically every time it writes or modifies code that handles credentials.
