In the world of cloud-native development, containers are the bedrock of agility and scale. They allow teams to package applications and their dependencies into a single, portable unit that runs consistently across any environment. But this convenience comes with a hidden risk. Every container image is built from layers, and each layer-from the base operating system to the application libraries-can harbor vulnerabilities. Forgetting to implement robust security measures for these containers is a lesson many companies learn the hard way.

Technical fortifications often play an important role among organizations looking to create a reliable and modern cybersecurity environment. There are firewalls, zero-trust networks, encryption, endpoint monitoring, and more. However, despite these solutions, breaches continue to happen. And to the surprise of some, they happen through a rather unexpected route-the partners you trust. Vendors, suppliers, and service providers have to be authentic. Not all enterprises bother checking the identity of their partners, which leads to a plethora of problems down the line.

Chief Information Officers (CIOs) today play a pivotal role in steering organizations through technology transformations. Among the most impactful tools at their disposal is Microsoft Power Apps. A key component of the Power Platform that enables businesses to build custom applications rapidly and efficiently. However, unlike what people assume, implementing Power Apps successfully goes beyond simple app creation. It demands a clear strategy, governance, and alignment with enterprise goals.

A new phishing kit, Tykit, is rapidly spreading, using malicious SVG files to mimic Microsoft 365 login pages and steal corporate credentials. Linked to hundreds of compromised accounts across finance, IT, government, and telecom sectors, it shows how simple code tweaks can outsmart traditional defenses. ANY.RUN experts traced 180+ sandbox sessions revealing the kit's infrastructure and patterns, and how analysts can detect it within minutes where standard scanners see nothing.

Digital catalogs have become a core sales engine, not just a glossy PDF on a server. They power discovery, merchandising, and conversion across web and mobile experiences. When a catalog powers real revenue, the way you build and run it starts to look a lot like modern software delivery. That's where DevOps and observability enter the picture: practices that shorten release cycles, reduce risk, and keep customer experiences fast and available even on your biggest traffic days.
