In March, we awarded Sentry’s Open Source Grant to Latinx non-profit Techqueria. Here’s a look at their progress, six months later.

A few months ago, LogicMonitor was certified to the ISO 27000 standards for Information Security management, so I thought I’d take the opportunity to write a bit about our efforts to build our information security certification program as well as our own best practices for secure use of the LogicMonitor platform.

Our user community spoke and we listened. You asked for Xray to be even more universal and support more package types… in particular Go and PHP Composer.
