DNS Spy Now Connects to GoDaddy. Every Domain, Every Record, Read-Only.

GoDaddy manages more domains than any registrar on earth, so it has always been near the top of our provider integration list. There was just one problem: in May 2024, GoDaddy restricted its API to accounts holding ten or more domains — fifty for some endpoints. Overnight, certificate renewals broke, dynamic DNS scripts died, and every small business with one or two domains was locked out of automating anything.

8 Best Anti-spam Software To Increase Email Security

With an increasing number of employees working from home, getting top-notch security software has become more important than ever before. While spam can be harmless and viewed as a minor productivity issue, it’s also a significant source of email-borne threats that can put the whole company at risk. Therefore, getting a robust, scalable anti-spam filter is now a necessity, especially for IT services providers and other large-scale use cases.

Session Replay for Unreal Engine: see the crash before the crash

You know the drill: a crash report lands in your queue with a pristine stack trace pointing at some innocent-looking function and absolutely no clue about what the player was actually doing. Were they mid-boss-fight? Alt-tabbing during a loading screen? Standing perfectly still in the tutorial? QA can’t repro it, the player’s bug report says “game crashed lol,” and you’re left staring at a callstack playing twenty questions with a core dump.

The July 23 2026 Azure West US Outage: IP Route Removal and Downstream Impact

On July 23, 2026, Microsoft Azure experienced a connectivity outage in the West US region that blocked traffic entering or leaving the region for nearly five hours.

How Claude Mythos Changes the Future of Vulnerability Management: Fixing, Not Finding

Anthropic’s Claude Mythos shows how AI is making vulnerability discovery nearly infinite. Endpoint remediation is where IT teams win or lose. In April 2026, Anthropic introduced Claude Mythos Preview, an AI model that autonomously discovered thousands of previously unknown vulnerabilities across every major operating system and web browser. By late May, the running total had passed 23,000 potential findings, and the vast majority were still unpatched.

Patching Alone Can't Keep Pace with Mythos. These 6 Nexthink Library Packs Can.

Most vulnerability programs were built around a known list of CVEs, scanned periodically and scored by severity. The Anthropic’s Claude Mythos era breaks that model, because the vulnerabilities that matter most are often undisclosed, unscored, and absent from any feed. The organizations that close the gap will be the ones that treat real-time exposure and remediation velocity as the core capability, not the patch backlog.

OpenTelemetry eBPF Instrumentation (Grafana OTel Community Call #9)

In this episode of the Grafana OTel Community Call, we're exploring OpenTelemetry eBPF Instrumentation (OBI). OpenTelemetry eBPF Instrumentation (OBI) offers a powerful way to instrument applications at the system kernel level, capturing essential “RED metrics” — request rate, error rate, and duration — and network flows without requiring code changes, rebuilds, or redeployments. We will cover the project's architecture, discuss its origins as Grafana Beyla, and look ahead to the roadmap for language and runtime coverage.
