Enforce Artifact Governance with OPA Policy-as-Code | Harness Artifact Registry

Artifact governance should not depend on manual checks. But for many teams, container images, software packages, and open-source dependencies are imported into registries from multiple internal and external sources. Without automated guardrails, vulnerable images, untrusted packages, end-of-life dependencies, or non-compliant artifacts can reach developers and delivery pipelines.

Top Semgrep Alternatives

Application security has recently become one of the most important parts of software development. Today, there is an increasing number of threats that target code, dependencies, and cloud environments, so developers need tools that go way beyond basic static analysis. Semgrep is a popular tool for code scanning (SAST), but many teams are looking for other alternatives that provide broader security coverage, better automation capabilities, or just easier workflows.

Certificate lineage: the concept your tools already use but nobody named

The word “certificate” means too many different things. When someone says “the certificate for example.com,” they might mean the public key the CA signed. They might mean the key-pair sitting on the filesystem. They might mean the signature that expires in 47 days. Or they might mean all the things together, that you’ve been renewing for the last 10 years. That last one doesn’t have a name in any PKI standard. And it should.

From Tee Time to Uptime: A True Cyber Resilience Story

In this 90-second customer case study, Mehdi Salehi from Golfbreaks shares the operational and security gains his team saw with N-central. Highlights include about 20% annual cost savings, around 20 minutes saved per end-user support session, a 90% increase in third-party patch coverage, and about 70% improvement in server OS update coverage. Watch the short video to see how automation and a central pane of glass helped reduce the burden on the team and deliver greater peace of mind.

Protecting against HTTP/2 Bomb vulnerability (CVE-2026-49975) with HAProxy

On June 2, 2026, security researchers disclosed a remote denial-of-service (DoS) exploit named the HTTP/2 Bomb. This flaw allows unauthenticated remote attackers to rapidly exhaust server memory, rendering major web servers inaccessible.

Shai-Hulud Miasma: Inside the Compromise of Red Hat's Packages | Harness Blog

The Shai-Hulud lineage has a new face. On June 1, 2026, security teams independently flagged a fresh supply chain compromise inside the @redhat-cloud-services npm namespace. 32 packages and 96 versions were all republished with a credential-stealing worm. These aren't typosquats. They are the official packages in a trusted scope, pulling somewhere 80,000-117,000 average weekly downloads.

Keeping Critical Systems Online Across Dynamic Operational Locations

Keeping critical systems online has always been a technical challenge, but the scale of that challenge shifts considerably when operations span multiple physical locations, none of which are fixed. Field sites, temporary installations, marine vessels, mobile command units, and dispersed industrial assets all place unique demands on the infrastructure designed to keep them running. In these environments, avoiding downtime and maintaining business continuity is not simply a matter of patching software or monitoring a server room.

4 Best Chainguard Alternatives for Zero-CVE Images in 2026

Chainguard helped make zero-CVE and near-zero-CVE container images a mainstream topic in cloud-native security. For many engineering and security teams, the core appeal is clear: fewer vulnerabilities in base images, smaller attack surfaces, stronger software provenance, and less time wasted chasing noisy vulnerability reports.

Why Outsourcing Global Payroll is Critical for Growing Global Teams

A crucial part that manages your distributed workforce across various countries is the global payroll. As remote workers continue to rise, organisations need more than just simple solutions. They need a system that ensures accurate and timely payments to their employees globally. This calls for the need for a comprehensive, compliant global payroll solution that scales with your growth.

Live proxy stock visibility on NSOCKS for smarter pre purchase decisions

Buying proxy access becomes much more controlled when the user can inspect real inventory instead of relying on vague package promises. On the homepage, NSOCKS presents a model where specific IPs can be reviewed before payment, with visible details such as geolocation, speed, ISP data, protocol support, and live availability. That shifts the buying process away from blind subscription logic and toward deliberate selection based on current stock. The practical value of the service comes from this visibility layer, because it lets users judge what they are paying for before money leaves the balance.
