VM Migration to Kubernetes: What Breaks and How to Prevent It

Here is what nobody putting together the business case for a VM migration to Kubernetes will tell you upfront: the compute is the easy part. Moving workloads off vSphere and onto Kubernetes is conceptually straightforward. The tooling has matured. The architecture is proven. Compute moves, storage remaps, and the platform team has a plan. The network is where projects quietly stall.

How to Improve Your IT Reliability as a Business Owner

Running a small company often feels like spinning plates. You handle sales, hiring, and finance, and hoping the computers just work. When the Wi-Fi drops or a server crashes, everything stops. Improving your tech reliability is not about fancy gear. It is about creating a stable foundation for your daily operations.

How Monitoring Tools Enhance Visibility Across Digital Platforms

There is growing confusion about what all the monitoring a business needs to do. As businesses enter new digital platforms to reach customers, they also need to establish monitoring of those new platforms in order to be successful. Of course, there are new digital platforms every day, including cloud services, websites, social media hubs and other customer service channels. While many of these platforms are always on, always collecting data for a business to mine, there is little in organization or technology to suggest that one person could monitor all of these platforms manually.

Looking Beyond Telegram in 2026: Secure Messaging Apps Worth Trying

In today's digital world, where personal correspondence can become the object of mass surveillance, and user data regularly leaks into the public space, choosing a secure messenger or a good alternative to Telegram becomes not just a matter of comfort, but a necessity to protect privacy.

5 Best SOC 2 Continuous Monitoring Tools for SaaS: Closing the 20% Manual Evidence Gap

Landing a big-logo customer feels great-until their security questionnaire hits your inbox. For most B2B SaaS teams, SOC 2 compliance is the roadblock. You connect a tool, dashboards turn green, and then stall: about 20% of evidence still needs screenshots, sign-offs, or frantic Slack chases. That last-mile grind drags engineers back into spreadsheets just when the audit seems done.

Secure performance testing at scale: Introducing secrets management for Grafana Cloud k6

To simulate real user behavior, performance tests often rely on API keys, tokens, or credentials to interact with real systems. But as your testing suite grows, this sensitive data can start to sprawl across scripts, configs, and environments, increasing the risk of exposure and making tests harder to manage and maintain. To address this challenge, we’re rolling out secrets management for Grafana Cloud k6, the fully managed performance testing platform powered by k6 OSS.

The 2026 software supply chain security gap

AI-generated code is now nearly universal. Enforcement is not. That gap is where your software supply chain is most exposed. Cloudsmith's CEO Glenn Weinstein, Co-Founder & CTO Lee Skillen, and VP of Product Alison Sickelka join Product Marketing Manager Meghan McGowan to unpack the 2026 State of Artifact Management report – a survey-based look at how AI development is reshaping the threat landscape, what organizations are getting wrong, and what the highest-leverage fix actually looks like.

Todd's Tenth Rule of certificate automation

I’m an old engineer at heart. Many of my ideals were formed by Joel’s Things You Should Never Do, Fred’s No Silver Bullet, and Brian’s Big Ball of Mud. One of my favorites was Greenspun’s Tenth Rule: The joke isn’t really about programming languages. It’s about a pattern: certain problems have a shape, and no matter how you approach them, you end up building the same solution, in the same order, until you arrive at the same messy place.

Poland's KSC Act Is Now in Force: Why NIS2 Compliance Starts with Infrastructure Automation

Poland’s implementation of the EU’s NIS2 Directive marks a decisive shift in how organisations think about cybersecurity, resilience, and operational risk. With amendments to the Act on the National Cybersecurity System (KSC Act) entering into force on 3 April 2026, enforcement expectations are now real, national, and significantly stricter than many organisations anticipated – including obligations for security controls, incident response, and supply‑chain governance.

Cloud Security Best Practices Every Company Should Follow

Cloud adoption has accelerated dramatically over the past few years - and with it, so has the attack surface for cybercriminals. Whether you're a five-person startup or a 500-employee enterprise, moving your operations to the cloud without a solid security strategy is one of the most expensive mistakes you can make right now.

Your Facebook Account Has Been Hacked: How to Tell

Facebook is arguably the most popular and largest social media platform globally. Unfortunately, with that, it's also one of the most vulnerable platforms, thanks to the vast majority of individuals using it. Staying secure online requires vigilance across all platforms - whether using mainstream services or exploring specialized networks for reaching dark web forums, hidden wiki sites. Since they have a huge target population, Facebook is adored by scammers and hackers. One day, you might wake up and be surprised that you cannot log into your Facebook account.

The Growing Importance of Anonymous Browsing for Companies

These days, the possibility of a hack is something no business can ignore. You really need to figure out a way of dealing with any problems, and anonymous browsing can be the right solution. It means that you're accessing the internet in a way that you can mask your company's identity. Not only are you hiding the IP and location, but no one will know what device or browser you are using, either. Having that type of anonymity matters a lot, and it will certainly make things much better than expected.

Announcing Kosli's brand new docs

Good docs are how developers work with a product, from first look to daily use. That’s been true for a long time, and it’s becoming more true as developers increasingly hand that work to agents on their behalf. During the last quarter, we’ve been migrating docs.kosli.com from a static Hugo site to Mintlify, and now it’s finally live. Early reactions from our customers: “A marked improvement over the old docs in layout and usability.” “Looking sharp!”

How to Install Terraform for Secure and Scalable Infrastructure Automation | Harness Blog

KubeVirt Networking: How to Preserve VM IP Addresses During Migration

Organisations are re-evaluating their VM infrastructure. The economics have shifted, the tooling has matured, and the case for running two separate platforms, one for containers, one for VMs, is getting harder to justify. Platform teams that spent years managing hypervisor infrastructure are being asked to consolidate, and most are landing on the same answer: Kubernetes. KubeVirt makes running VMs on Kubernetes possible.

2029 May Be the Turning Point for the Quantum Computing Threat

In recent weeks, Google Research released a whitepaper stating that in the future, a sufficiently powerful quantum computer could potentially break a significant portion of the cryptography currently securing the Bitcoin network. The authors established a remarkably specific timeframe for this to happen: 2029.

Managing Digital Display Infrastructure in Multi-Location Businesses

For businesses with many locations-like busy retail chains or large office campuses-managing digital display systems is more than a tech upgrade. It's a business need. You must coordinate hardware, software, content, and internet connections across different sites so every screen shows the right message at the right time. When it's done well, separate screens work together as one clear communication system for both employees and customers, no matter the location.

Best Automated Redaction Tools US

The need for automated redaction has become increasingly critical as organizations across the US handle growing volumes of sensitive data. From law enforcement bodycam footage to corporate disclosures, legal evidence, and customer communications, the responsibility to protect personally identifiable information (PII) is both operational and regulatory. Manual redaction processes simply cannot keep pace with this scale, often introducing delays, inconsistencies, and risk.

How Polyurethane Casting Factories Protect Client Intellectual Property

Urethane casting has become a go-to solution for prototyping and low-volume production in today's fast-paced manufacturing. It enables engineers and companies to quickly turn ideas into functional parts for design validation, testing, and market entry. Yet when clients hand over detailed CAD models, proprietary designs, and process specifications to a casting factory, intellectual property (IP) protection is above all others. A single leak or misuse can erode competitive advantage, cause financial losses, and damage hard-earned brand reputation.

Secrets Management: Get Credentials Out of Your Netdata Configuration Files

If you’re running Netdata collectors that connect to databases, APIs, or other authenticated services, there’s a good chance you have passwords sitting in plain-text configuration files right now. It works, but it’s the kind of thing that makes security teams nervous and makes credential rotation painful. Every password change means editing config files and restarting collectors.

Diff-erent Perspectives: How Specialized LLM Personas Catch More Bugs

We’ve built a multi-LLM PR reviewer that runs on every pull request in a couple of our own repos. Two independent models look at each change in parallel, each wearing a set of “persona hats” tuned to a specific area of the codebase. They compare notes, duplicates get stripped out, and the PR author ends up with a single review comment rather than a wall of noise.

Balancing DevOps Speed and Cybersecurity: Where Risks Arise

In modern development, speed is one of the primary competitive advantages. Teams release new versions daily, infrastructure is deployed in minutes, and the pipeline from commit to production keeps getting shorter. This creates real business value - but it is also an area where security risks quietly accumulate. The problem is not that DevOps teams ignore security. More often, they are forced to choose between speed and thorough validation. And this choice, made dozens of times each week, gradually builds up security technical debt that sooner or later turns into a real incident.

How Your Business Can Safely Use Modern Digital Payments

The implementation of digital payment systems has transformed business transaction methods because these systems enable speedier transactions that facilitate international operations. Businesses gain various advantages through their adoption of modern payment systems; however, these systems contain built-in security threats. The team must develop a success strategy which requires specific operational measures for implementation. Digital payment systems can create value through these six operational methods.

Your AI Agents Are Autonomous. But Are They Accountable?

Why accountability, not capability, is the real bottleneck for enterprise agentic AI, and what security leaders need to do about it before regulators force the issue. Every enterprise is building AI agents. Marketing has one summarizing campaign performance. Engineering has one triaging incidents. Customer support has one resolving tickets. Finance has one processing invoices.

Building a Strategic Roadmap for Cloud Security Maturity in IT Operations

Cloud security is now a core part of IT operations. As organizations rely more on cloud services, security practices need to keep pace without slowing delivery. A strategic roadmap helps teams move from reactive fixes to structured, measurable progress. It brings clarity to priorities, aligns teams, and supports consistent improvement over time.

Top 5 Anti Detect Browsers Reviewed (2026's Best Tools)

If you manage multiple accounts for e-commerce, affiliate marketing, or social media in 2026, you already know that platforms like Amazon, Google, and TikTok track your every move. They don't just log your IP address; they analyze your hardware-your graphics card, CPU, system fonts, and Canvas rendering-to create a unique "browser fingerprint." If you try to log into ten different accounts from the same machine, the algorithm instantly detects the matching hardware fingerprints and bans your entire matrix.

Deployed Is Not the Same as Ready: How Mature Is Your Kubernetes Environment?

Kubernetes adoption is no longer the challenge it once was. More than 82% of enterprises run containers in production, most of them on multiple Kubernetes clusters. Adoption, however, does not mean operational maturity. These are two very different things. It is one thing to deploy workloads to a cluster or two and quite another to do it securely, efficiently and at scale. This distinction matters because the gap between adoption and Kubernetes operational maturity is where risk accumulates.

Beyond the Prompt: AI Agent Design Patterns and the New Governance Gap

If you are treating Large Language Models (LLMs) like simple question-and-answer machines, you are leaving their most transformative potential on the table. The industry has officially shifted from zero-shot prompting to structured AI agent design patterns and agentic workflows where AI iteratively reasons, uses external tools, and collaborates to solve complex engineering problems.

Change in behavior: findfiles() and directory trailing slashes

CFEngine 3.24.4+, 3.27.1+, and 3.28.0+ include a change to how findfiles() handles trailing slashes on directory paths. This change restores trailing slashes to directory results, but with improved consistency compared to earlier versions. The new behavior ensures that directory paths always include a trailing slash, making them reliably distinguishable from file paths regardless of the glob pattern used.

How AI-Powered Phishing Is Changing What 'Suspicious Email' Looks Like

For years, spotting a phishing email was almost a checklist exercise. Look for typos, watch for broken grammar, be suspicious of generic greetings like "Dear user," and check if the sender's address looks strange. That mental model worked because phishing emails actually looked bad. Which is no longer true. With the rise of AI, attackers can generate emails that are grammatically perfect, context-aware, and indistinguishable from legitimate business communication. The obvious red flags are gone. What used to look suspicious now looks completely normal.

PCA Cyber Security Is Now a PCI SSC Associate Participating Organization (APO)

PCA Cyber Security has joined the PCI Security Standards Council as an Associate Participating Organization (APO). Organizations partner with PCA Cyber Security, a PCI SSC Associate Participating Organization (APO), for payment device penetration testing services including end-to-end lifecycle protection through pre-compliance and post-launch penetration testing, continuous vulnerability monitoring, and product-focused threat intelligence.

The AI Zero-Day Wave Is Here. Is Your Logging Infrastructure Ready?

Last week, the cybersecurity industry received a signal it cannot afford to ignore. Anthropic announced Claude Mythos Preview: a general-purpose frontier AI model that, without any explicit training for the task, autonomously discovered and fully exploited zero-day vulnerabilities across every major operating system and web browser. Not theoretical capabilities.

Choosing Software for Consulting Business Success

Choosing software for a consulting business is an important task. The right set of tools ensures smooth communication, seamless project management, and the delivery of services as intended. Most consulting firms utilize technology to simplify daily tasks, manage client relationships, and ensure smooth operations.

Scaling Technical Research: Integrating Proxies into Your Data Operations (DataOps) Pipeline

In the world of Big Data, success depends on more than just algorithms. The quality of the incoming data stream is crucial. When a company scales its technical research, it inevitably encounters barriers such as CAPTCHAs, geoblocks, and anti-fraud systems.

Introducing Code Repositories in Kosli

Kosli gives your organization a complete picture of software delivery - every build, scan, deployment, and compliance event tracked. Until now that picture was most useful to the people managing governance. However, developers shipping code had to ask someone else what versions of their code were running, how long it was taking to get to production, or what their deployment frequency was. Repositories change that.

Unlocking Security Potential for AI: Introducing the Harness WAAP MCP Server | Harness Blog

Security teams face overwhelming amounts of data and complex interfaces, making it hard to access critical insights. AI tools promise solutions, but integration remains difficult as time ticks away and leadership wants the latest data to inform risk decisions. Most security platforms lack seamless integration, slowing access to important data and hindering AI-powered workflows.

Simple Ways to Improve Office Security with Technology

Many business owners overlook a simple but critical reality: their office is often easier to access than they assume. A keycard gets misplaced at a café. A Wi-Fi password is shared with a vendor and never updated. Over time, these small oversights create real security gaps. No one intends for them to happen, yet they accumulate quietly and leave the workspace exposed.

Six Tips For a Safe Internet Browsing On Your Phone

As the world becomes more digitalized, people's dependence on the internet has also increased. Unsurprisingly, in the 21st century, individuals need the internet for the most pivotal and fundamental tasks. Unfortunately, with the increasing use of the internet, there has also been a rise in cybercrimes.

How DAM Software Speeds Up Content Workflows

Several teams still find it exceedingly difficult to manage digital files. Having endless photos, videos, and documentations can cause a bit of chaos. DAM software makes for a structured solution, which saves time and increases the productivity of companies where content plays a major role. The article discusses how DAM software speeds up processes and helps deliver better outcomes for teams.

Export env0 Log Data to SIEM and Monitoring Platforms [2026]

Every time Terraform runs a plan, every time an environment is deployed, every time a variable is changed, env zero generates a record. env zero log forwarding sends that record to your existing SIEM or observability platform automatically. For most teams without it configured, that record lives inside env zero and nowhere else.

Resolve's Agents of IT podcast - Ep. 16 - Can AI Fix Broken Work Without Breaking Security?

In this episode of Agents of IT, host Ari Stowe sits down with producer Ian Coppock for a fast-paced, no-filter discussion on one of the hottest topics in enterprise tech: AI, security, and the reality of modern work. Is AI introducing new security risks, or just exposing the ones that were already there? The answer is both. From overprivileged access to machine identities, Ari and Ian break down what’s actually changing and what isn’t. They challenge the idea that AI alone will fix broken workflows and explore why intentional design, guardrails, and orchestration matter more than ever.

How Modern IT Solutions Secure Business Operations and Drive Scalability

In today's fast-paced digital economy, business growth is heavily dependent on technological capability. However, as organisations expand their digital footprint, they simultaneously widen their attack surface. Scaling operations without a robust security framework often leaves companies vulnerable to severe operational disruptions, regulatory fines, and reputational damage. For business leaders, the challenge lies in deploying infrastructure that supports rapid growth while maintaining airtight security across all digital assets.

Using Open Policy Agent (OPA) with Terraform: Tutorial and Examples [2026]

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) solves the provisioning problem. It doesn't solve the governance problem. You can version your Terraform configuration, run it in a pipeline, review every pull request — and still deploy an S3 bucket with public access, a VM with no encryption, or a resource that exceeds your cost budget. Nothing in the standard IaC workflow checks for those things. The reviewer has to know what to look for. And they won't catch it every time. Policy as Code changes that.

Kosli and Adaptavist Partner to Automate Governance for AI driven Software Delivery

Today, Kosli and Adaptavist announce a strategic partnership to help regulated enterprises automate governance for AI driven software delivery - making it automated, continuous, and evidence-driven rather than a manual checkpoint that sits apart from DevOps and CI/CD.

Introducing Zero Trust Architecture for Software Delivery | Harness Blog

For the world’s largest financial institutions, places like Citi and National Australia Bank, shipping code fast is just part of the job. But at that scale, speed is nothing without a rock-solid security foundation. It’s the non-negotiable starting point for every release. Most Harness users believe they are fully covered by our fine-grained Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) and Open Policy Agent (OPA).

How Cloud Computing Is Transforming Secure Financial Infrastructure

Here's the thing about old-school IT infrastructure: it bleeds your budget dry and puts the brakes on growth when you need speed most. You can't keep throwing money at clunky on-site servers that demand endless upgrades and full-time babysitters. Cloud computing is a total game-changer. Companies are now tapping into enterprise-level tech without mortgaging their future on capital investments that used to feel unavoidable.

The Agent Runtime Needs an Enterprise Brain: Why Fabrix.ai Completes the NemoClaw / DefenseClaw Stack

The agentic AI security stack is taking shape , fast. At GTC 2026, NVIDIA unveiled NemoClaw, an open-source stack that wraps OpenClaw with enterprise-grade privacy controls, local inference via Nemotron models, and the OpenShell sandboxed runtime.

Five Ways Avantra Makes SAP More Secure

Enterprises use SAP well beyond simple back-office only accounting software. Today’s SAP systems are highly integrated and used by thousands of people daily across dozens of departments, and that’s just for a single large enterprise! As a central part of business operations, getting SAP security right, and durable operations with it, have become essential responsibilities for IT teams.

Mirroring Icinga Packages in Air-Gapped and Restricted Environments

When hosting in a secure or corporate environment, Internet access is often restricted or blocked completely. While this makes sense from a security point of view, this introduces some challenges. For one, getting software packages. There are usually two approaches to the package problem in such an environment: Either allow a certain package mirror in the firewall, or run your own mirror within the restricted environment with access to another package server to mirror packages from.

Introducing kosli evaluate: Rego Policy Evaluation for Your Compliance Data

If you’re evaluating compliance controls against your Kosli trail data today, there’s a good chance you’ve written some glue code to make it work. A script that pulls trail data from the API. Another that downloads attestations one by one. Something that mangles the JSON together into a shape that your chosen compliance engine can evaluate. And then that engine itself, whether it’s OPA, a custom Python script, or something else, installed and configured in your pipeline.

Why True Operational Security Requires an Unmanaged Cloud VPS

When deploying infrastructure for sensitive communications, penetration testing, or privacy-centric applications, your threat model must account for the human element. Handing over the root access of your server to a "managed" hosting provider fundamentally breaks that model. In 2026, serious security practitioners know that true OPSEC cannot exist in an environment where support staff have administrative backdoors into your operating system.
