Certificate lineage: the concept your tools already use but nobody named

The word “certificate” means too many different things. When someone says “the certificate for example.com,” they might mean the public key the CA signed. They might mean the key-pair sitting on the filesystem. They might mean the signature that expires in 47 days. Or they might mean all the things together, that you’ve been renewing for the last 10 years. That last one doesn’t have a name in any PKI standard. And it should.

Protecting against HTTP/2 Bomb vulnerability (CVE-2026-49975) with HAProxy

On June 2, 2026, security researchers disclosed a remote denial-of-service (DoS) exploit named the HTTP/2 Bomb. This flaw allows unauthenticated remote attackers to rapidly exhaust server memory, rendering major web servers inaccessible.

Shai-Hulud Miasma: Inside the Compromise of Red Hat's Packages | Harness Blog

The Shai-Hulud lineage has a new face. On June 1, 2026, security teams independently flagged a fresh supply chain compromise inside the @redhat-cloud-services npm namespace. 32 packages and 96 versions were all republished with a credential-stealing worm. These aren't typosquats. They are the official packages in a trusted scope, pulling somewhere 80,000-117,000 average weekly downloads.

From Tee Time to Uptime: A True Cyber Resilience Story

In this 90-second customer case study, Mehdi Salehi from Golfbreaks shares the operational and security gains his team saw with N-central. Highlights include about 20% annual cost savings, around 20 minutes saved per end-user support session, a 90% increase in third-party patch coverage, and about 70% improvement in server OS update coverage. Watch the short video to see how automation and a central pane of glass helped reduce the burden on the team and deliver greater peace of mind.

Keeping Critical Systems Online Across Dynamic Operational Locations

Keeping critical systems online has always been a technical challenge, but the scale of that challenge shifts considerably when operations span multiple physical locations, none of which are fixed. Field sites, temporary installations, marine vessels, mobile command units, and dispersed industrial assets all place unique demands on the infrastructure designed to keep them running. In these environments, avoiding downtime and maintaining business continuity is not simply a matter of patching software or monitoring a server room.

4 Best Chainguard Alternatives for Zero-CVE Images in 2026

Chainguard helped make zero-CVE and near-zero-CVE container images a mainstream topic in cloud-native security. For many engineering and security teams, the core appeal is clear: fewer vulnerabilities in base images, smaller attack surfaces, stronger software provenance, and less time wasted chasing noisy vulnerability reports.

Why Outsourcing Global Payroll is Critical for Growing Global Teams

A crucial part that manages your distributed workforce across various countries is the global payroll. As remote workers continue to rise, organisations need more than just simple solutions. They need a system that ensures accurate and timely payments to their employees globally. This calls for the need for a comprehensive, compliant global payroll solution that scales with your growth.

Live proxy stock visibility on NSOCKS for smarter pre purchase decisions

Buying proxy access becomes much more controlled when the user can inspect real inventory instead of relying on vague package promises. On the homepage, NSOCKS presents a model where specific IPs can be reviewed before payment, with visible details such as geolocation, speed, ISP data, protocol support, and live availability. That shifts the buying process away from blind subscription logic and toward deliberate selection based on current stock. The practical value of the service comes from this visibility layer, because it lets users judge what they are paying for before money leaves the balance.

INSOCKS for proxy governance quality control and scalable team workflows

Proxy infrastructure becomes more valuable when it is managed like a governed business resource instead of a one click purchase. For teams that need repeatable buying rules, visible quality signals, and cleaner reporting, INSOCKS can be treated as a platform for proxy governance rather than only a catalog of IP addresses. The service combines product variety, fraud screening, usage history, API access, and support channels in a way that helps teams build internal standards for selection, testing, approval, and renewal.

Should platform, SRE, and security merge into one function?

Platform, SRE, and security are three distinct functions in modern engineering orgs, each shaped by a different problem. SRE was the operations function's answer to scale: how to keep systems reliable when the systems get big. Platform answered a different problem: how to let developers ship without becoming infrastructure experts. Security drew the line on what could safely reach production.
