Leading an IT team often involves a careful balancing act between two priorities. On one hand, IT leaders must have an eye for innovation in order to keep up with rapidly changing environments. Meanwhile, there’s the constant pressure to reduce technological costs and ensure that IT is driving real value for the business. Within a nonprofit organization, managing these two priorities becomes an even more delicate process.
New regulations like virtual banking licensing frameworks, advances in open banking and big techs rapidly gaining ground in financial services, are dramatically changing the banking landscape, forcing incumbents to reinvent themselves.

But user education only goes so far – particularly because the same statistics cited above show that, on average, only 3 percent of users will report phishing emails.
Serverless event-driven architectures are composed of AWS Lambda functions that regularly interact with databases, APIs, message queues, and other resources to facilitate complex workflows and functionalities. It is therefore crucial to monitor every component of your stack to ensure your applications perform optimally at scale. But traditionally, telemetry data for AWS resources has lived in silos, making it difficult to quickly get the context you need to debug issues.
During the execution of a PHP application, it is possible for it to generate a wide range of warnings and errors. For developers seeking to troubleshoot a misbehaving application, being able to observe these errors is critical. Developers, on the other hand, frequently encounter difficulties when attempting to display errors from their PHP applications. Instead, their applications simply stop working.
The N-able Head Security Nerd, Lewis Pope, just published a blog outlining the top 25 cybersecurity bad practices demonstrated by MSPs today. To accompany his post, I wanted to add one more risky bad habit to his list.
