Beyond Access: How Cato Measures and Manages User Risk in Real Time

Feb 23, 2026 By Dr. Guy Waizel In Cato Networks
On a quiet Tuesday morning, Jerry, a fictional system administrator, logged in as usual. While testing a new integration script, he visited a documentation page on an unfamiliar domain. It looked harmless and loaded without issue, but behind the scenes, Jerry’s laptop began making a series of small outbound requests to several low-reputation domains. None of these connections were malicious enough to be blocked, yet the pattern resembled early-stage domain-flux activity.

Why Every Website Should Use an IP-Based Address Geolocation Feature

Why Every Website Should Use an IP-Based Address Geolocation Feature

Feb 23, 2026 By SecuritySenses In SecuritySenses
Ten years ago, "Where is this visitor coming from?" was mostly a nice-to-have curiosity. In 2026, it sits at the heart of how we design conversion paths, keep pages fast, and stay compliant with regional rules like GDPR and the California Privacy Rights Act. Walk into any stand-up with a growth team and you'll hear questions about localized pricing, language toggles, and which promotions should fire for which markets. All three depend on knowing a user's location in real time. IP-based address geolocation answers that question with almost zero friction, so it remains the most widely adopted location signal on the web.

What Technology Investments Offer the Best ROI for Small Enterprises?

Let me save you some time and a lot of cash. Most small business tech investments are a complete waste of money. You buy a shiny new software suite because a slick sales rep promised it would revolutionize your workflow. Six months later? Your team is still doing things the exact same way. Only now you have a $500 monthly subscription bleeding your accounts dry.

The Network Blind Spot Adversaries Exploit

Feb 20, 2026 By CrowdStrike In CrowdStrike
Did you know there may be a blind spot in your network right now? Firewalls, routers, and edge devices often generate minimal logs by default, creating visibility gaps that adversaries can exploit. In this breakdown, we examine how a China-nexus threat group known as Operator Panda leveraged vulnerable network devices to gain access, establish persistence, and remain undetected even after patches were applied.

Scaling Operations Using IPv6 Proxies

Scaling Operations Using IPv6 Proxies

Feb 20, 2026 By SecuritySenses In SecuritySenses
Complex systems need effective networking to manage them. The problem of IP exhaustion is common among engineers who are implementing large-scale testing environments. How do you scale up public data collection without depleting your address pool? The answer lies in IPv6 proxies. They offer huge allocation areas of operations. This change allows for effective validation and data aggregation.

Data-driven forecasting: Plan your network growth and optimize resource usage with DDI Central's DNS and DHCP forecasting

Feb 19, 2026 By adithya.lk@zohocorp.com In ManageEngine
DNS and DHCP services in an organization’s network experience constant fluctuations in query spikes, lease requests, and client connections over time. Network administrators must continuously monitor these patterns to ensure service stability and availability. However, in fast-paced and growing networks, a proactive approach is far more effective than a reactive one. This allows teams to identify and resolve service-related issues before they lead to network disruptions or IP exhaustion.

A Deep Dive into Fidelis Network Deception Features and What They Mean for Security Teams

Feb 19, 2026 By Fidelis Security In Fidelis Security
Security teams today are not failing because they lack tools. Most organizations already have firewalls, EDR, SIEM, cloud monitoring, and multiple detection layers. Yet attackers still manage to enter networks, stay hidden, and move laterally before detection. That gap between entry and detection is the real challenge. This creates pressure for CISOs and SOC leaders. Analysts deal with alert fatigue, unclear signals, and limited time. When alerts are uncertain, response slows.

Using NQE to Consistently Validate DNS Configuration During Network Changes

Feb 17, 2026 By Forward Networks In Forward Networks
DNS is foundational to almost every application, yet it is often treated as background configuration rather than a critical dependency. During network changes, DNS settings are easy to overlook. A single device pointing to the wrong resolver, missing a required DNS entry, or retaining a legacy configuration can cause application failures that appear unrelated to the original change.
