The enduring presence of the DevOps model is undeniable, and its influence on modern development methodologies is profound.

Think of a cluttered desk, but on a digital scale. Businesses rely on hundreds of cloud-based, third-party Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications. Over a quarter (28%) of SME employees require 11 or more tools to manage the worker lifecycle. From the end user perspective, this isn’t a bad thing at all. Why not?

Xeon Sender targets cloud APIs, Cisco Talos reveals UAT-5394 infrastructure, and attackers leverage public.env files to extort victims.

In the ever-evolving landscape of IT services, channel partners like service providers, managed service providers (MSPs), and telecommunications companies have long played a crucial role in delivering enterprise networking and security solutions. However, a subtle yet powerful shift is emerging that threatens to disrupt this status quo.

The traditional financial industry is saddled with multiple pain points, and I predict that within 15 years, many financial and payment systems will be replaced by a wholesale shift to digital assets.
