If you had asked me in 2024 how seriously firms were taking DORA, my honest answer would have been that only around the top 20 per cent of impacted organisations were truly focused on it. These were typically the more risk averse, forward thinking businesses that tend to move early on regulatory change. Even then, many struggled to embed DORA into compliance as usual activities, whether because of stretched resources, limited budgets or complications within...

Veribee is on a mission to reduce noise for software teams, by striving to minimise alert-heavy tools that create noise, as opposed to confidence in what’s actually secure. As one survey found, over two-thirds of security teams receive over 2,000 alerts a day (roughly one alert every 42 seconds), with 92% reporting missed or uninvestigated alerts were linked to actual security incidents. Evidently, noise reduction, at a time where noise is only increasing, cannot be...

Moltbook has exploded into the security and AI communities with remarkable speed. In a matter of days, it has gone from an experimental curiosity to a viral talking point, with some observers framing it as a glimpse into autonomous AI behaviour and others warning it could signal something far more unsettling. The reality, however, is far less sensational and far more familiar to anyone who has spent time dealing with security failures at scale. As...
