Runtime ProtectionMonitors live cloud workloads in real time: system calls, process trees, network connections, and file writes.Ask: do you use eBPF? At what scope (process, network, file system)? Get the technical answer, not the product slide. Real-time threat detection at the workload level is the standard.Vulnerability Scanning and ManagementContinuously scans virtual machines, container images, and application dependencies for CVEs. Prioritisation must reflect exploitability in your specific environment, not CVSS score alone. A critical CVE in a library unreachable from the internet is lower priority than a medium CVE on an exposed public endpoint.Cloud Security Posture ManagementMisconfigured IAM policies, exposed storage…

⁠Pop Mart’s 2025 revenue exploded 185%, but it didn’t stop its stock from plummeting Walk around in public, and you’ll probably see someone clutching a furry, pointy-eared creature dangling from their bag. There’s a high chance that it is a Labubu—and it’s the reason Chinese designer toy company Pop Mart has become one of the fastest-growing consumer brands in the world. But Pop Mart’s best financial year on record didn’t stop its stock from dropping more than 20%. Here’s why that’s happened. Pop Mart’s growth was genuinely staggering Pop Mart’s full-year 2025 results were, by any conventional measure, extraordinary. Revenue…

The North Korean state-sponsored threat actor known as Kimsuky (aka Velvet Chollima) has been attributed to a fresh set of cyber attacks targeting South Korean military and corporate entities through March and April 2026. “Kimsuky employed a range of tailored social engineering tactics, such as spoofing security software installation pages and crafting a fake Webex meeting page that leveraged a legitimate meeting schedule,” ENKI said in an analysis published this week. The attacks have been found to deliver a variant of a known malware family dubbed HTTPSpy by disguising it as installers from South Korean security software, a tactic the…

Bartesian is the Keurig of cocktails. After trying several automatic cocktail makers on the market, it was the only cocktail maker I could see fitting into my normal routine. It works like any capsule-style device, but with booze. You fill the Bartesian’s glass bottles with your liquor of choice, make sure there’s water in the reservoir, plop in a cocktail capsule (these typically cost $2-3), choose your drink strength, press “mix,” and then a drink comes out. (If you’ve got kids, the Bartesian Professional version comes with a lock that will stymie curious fingers.)Do you need a Bartesian to make…

The Trump administration announced last Friday that US visa holders who want a green card must first return to their home countries and apply from there, “except in extraordinary circumstances.”On its face, this rule — which was officially promulgated in a memo from US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) — would upend America’s immigration system and the lives of hundreds of thousands of US residents.The Trump administration’s changes to the green card process could force hundreds of thousands of skilled immigrants to leave the country.This policy represents the triumph of MAGA nativists over the tech right, in the battle to…

Dell Technologies Inc. delivered its fastest rate of revenue growth since returning to the public markets more than seven years ago as it delivered stellar first-quarter financial results that crushed analysts’ expectations. The computer server and infrastructure marker also reported rising profitability, and its stock climbed by an impressive 38% in extended trading today. The results came in as NetApp Inc., another key data center infrastructure player, also delivered strong quarterly numbers, sending its stock higher in late trading too. However, it was Dell that earned the lion’s share of the plaudits today. The company delivered earnings before certain costs…

At this year’s Google I/O, the atmosphere at the Shoreline Amphitheatre was electric as the CEO laid out a vision for a world deeply intertwined with agentic AI. We heard about the sheer computing muscle of the new TPU 8i and 8t silicon processing faster than ever, the breathtaking multimodal capabilities of Gemini Omni, and the seamless autonomy of the Antigravity 2.0 IDE. But amidst the dazzling demonstrations of automated operating systems and intelligent search boxes, Google addressed the darkest, most terrifying elephant in the room: the erosion of objective truth. For all the ways AI promises to make our…

83% of B2B buyers change their vendor shortlist mid-funnel. So, if your sales process hasn’t adapted? You lose deals you don’t even know. Most B2B sales funnels assume that SDRs control the process. Someone becomes aware of a problem => reaches out to a vendor => gets a discovery call => sits through a demo => signs a contract. Sounds clean, linear, and predictable, right? SDRs must already know precisely when to show up and what to say. That buyer no longer exists. Hasn’t for a while, honestly. The modern B2B buyer is self-serving and moves at their own pace.…
