Security has been our top priority over the last year, and we’re rolling out major improvements to account and project access tokens to bring Rollbar up to today’s security standards. Newly created tokens will be stored in an encrypted format, inaccessible via the UI or API after being created, and you will be able to manually encrypt your existing tokens. This change to token storage will give you more control over who can submit, access or update data in your system.

That moment when your production system goes down, and you're stuck piecing together logs from twenty different services? It’s frustrating and slow—especially when you need answers fast. SIEM logs help bring order to this chaos, giving you a structured way to track security events and system activity. But understanding how to use them effectively isn’t always straightforward, and most documentation can feel more complicated than the problem itself.

The Calico eBPF data plane is your choice if latency is your primary concern. It was very disturbing that some benchmarking brought to our attention that eBPF had higher tail latency than iptables. The 99+% percentiles were higher by as much as a few hundred milliseconds. We did a whole bunch of experiments and we could not crack the nut until we observed that there are some occasional and unexpected TCP reset (RST) packets, but no connections were reset.

API security testing is software testing performed on APIs. It is meant to identify vulnerabilities in API endpoint communication and access. In modern software development, API security is a crucial aspect that cannot be ignored. API security testing can now be automated in CI/CD, enabling early detection of vulnerabilities, maintaining security standards without slowing down development, and reducing human errors.
