The digital landscape continues to evolve rapidly, and so do the methods used to protect online environments. Passwordless authentication has emerged as a powerful alternative to traditional password-based security, helping organizations improve protection while simplifying access. Instead of relying on memorized passwords, users verify their identity through more secure and convenient methods.

You already know the stakes.
Nearly 80% of AI initiatives fail, and the root cause is rarely the algorithms—it’s data. You’ve seen how traditional governance slows innovation, creating a trust paradox where controls increase friction instead of confidence. You understand the promise of govern-as-you-go and how quickly organizations can transform when governance becomes embedded rather than enforced.

The modern enterprise extends far beyond the traditional data center and the employee laptop. Today’s environments include a vast array of devices operating at the network edge—ranging from smart surveillance cameras and HVAC sensors to specialized Operational Technology (OT) controllers in factories and warehouses. While this growing ecosystem of Internet of Things (IoT) and Industrial Control Systems (ICS) significantly enhances business capabilities, it also introduces a substantial and often overlooked security gap.

At Versasec, we believe security should enable efficiency and growth—not create unnecessary complexity. Today’s business environment requires far more than the outdated and fragile protection offered by passwords. This legacy approach is not only a critical security weakness, but also a significant operational burden. It’s a challenge we know well, and one we are committed to solving.

Passkeys are different from traditional username-based approaches to passwordless sign-in and MFA. This article explains how to design the most effective passkey experience for users, with a focus on web browsers as the platform.

In cybersecurity, convenience often comes at a cost. Synced passkeys—touted for their ability to work seamlessly across multiple devices—are a prime example. While they simplify access, recent research shows they can introduce serious vulnerabilities, potentially exposing entire organizations to risk.

Cyberattacks are increasing in both scale and complexity, making data protection one of the most critical challenges facing organizations today. While traditional security controls — such as firewalls, antivirus software, and network monitoring — continue to play an essential role, they are no longer enough on their own.

Recently, several people have asked about the syslog-ng project’s position on AI. In short, the answer is one of cautious optimism. We are open to using AI, but we do not allow it to take over any critical responsibilities from human developers. What does this approach look like in practice?

Users and organizations should expect a sharp rise in phishing activity in the coming weeks as cybercriminals take advantage of the holiday shopping rush, according to a recent report from Zimperium. The findings show that mobile phishing attacks increase by as much as four times during the festive season, with many campaigns posing as trusted brands and popular online marketplaces such as Amazon and eBay.

Recent findings from heise online have raised serious concerns about a large number of aging Western Digital hard drives, especially from the Blue, Red, and Purple series. These models use Shingled Magnetic Recording (SMR) technology — a method that increases storage capacity by overlapping data tracks like roof tiles.

A feast of new features. A cornucopia of new capabilities. A banquet of breakthroughs (and the T-day puns are just getting started). Graylog 7.0 brings a full plate of advancements that help security teams cut through noise, control cloud costs, and respond with confidence. We’re serving practical improvements across dashboards, automation, and AI support so analysts can focus on action instead of manual effort.
