Preparing Infrastructure for the Next Phase of Agentic AI

Agentic AI is changing government infrastructure requirements, pushing agencies to rethink workflows, observability, data movement and resource prioritization before investing in new hardware.

Transforming Mainframe Recovery

Moving beyond disaster recovery, organizations can ensure business-critical mainframe environments. Over decades, the mainframe has earned a reputation for being synonymous with reliability. Many enterprise organizations continue to rely on the mainframe precisely because of the redundancy, automatic recovery, and availability that leads to “nine nines” reliability or 31.56 milliseconds of unplanned annual downtime per […]

Dash0 Acquires Polar Signals for Continuous Profiling and GPU Visibility

Observability startup Dash0 announced this week that it acquired Berlin-based continuous profiling specialist Polar Signals. The deal adds continuous profiling to SignalStore, Dash0’s OpenTelemetry-native data platform. Continuous profiling has been part of the developer toolbox for years and provides teams with an ongoing view of where running applications spend CPU time, allocate memory and consume […]

Hackers Target Popular arrayref Rust Crate in Supply-Chain Attack

Security researchers are sorting through a complex, stealthy, and fast-moving supply-chain attack aimed at pushing information-stealing malware by compromising the account of the maintainer of multiple Rust crates and introducing four more attacker-owned crates. In addition, researchers with Wiz wrote that there also appears to be overlap with supply chain campaigns run by nation-state actors […]

Why API Test Generation Is a Judgment Problem, Not a Code Generation Problem

When we started using large language models for API test generation at KushoAI, the results were impressive on the surface. Tests appeared in seconds. Coverage breadth went up. The team was excited. Then we looked more carefully at what was being produced. On one endpoint, the model generated 26 tests where a senior QA engineer […]

npm v12 Shuts Down a Popular Malware Trick — But the Threat Isn’t Going Away

For years, one of the easiest ways to sneak malware onto a developer’s machine has been to hide in plain sight. Install a package from npm, and any lifecycle script bundled with it runs automatically — no review, no approval, no second look. Attackers have known this for a long time, and they’ve used it […]

Critical Flaw in isolated-vm Can Lead to Sandbox Escape, RCE Threat

Developers for years have been using vm2, an open-source Node.js library, to run untrusted JavaScript inside a secure and isolated sandbox environment. It uses Node.js’s built-in modules and JavaScript Proxies and lets developers whitelist particular built-in Node modules or limit what the script can access. During that time, vm2 has been the default for safely […]

UiPath Test Cloud: Robots Handle Repetition, Agents Adapt and Humans Lead

Most companies don’t actually struggle to ship software anymore. AI made that part fast. What they struggle with is releasing what they built with any real confidence in it. That gap between shipping fast and trusting what you shipped is what I’ve been calling quality debt at conferences all year, and it’s the same gap […]

GitHub Sharpens CodeQL’s Eye on Actions Workflows and Modern JavaScript

GitHub Actions pipelines have become one of the quieter attack surfaces in software development. They pull in third-party actions, cache dependencies, and pass secrets between jobs, often without anyone reviewing the workflow file as closely as they’d review application code. That gap is exactly where cache-poisoning and output-clobbering attacks live, and it’s why GitHub keeps […]

Elevating Technical Documentation: Using Predictive AI to Standardize Visual Knowledge Bases

Every release changes documentation alongside the code. Developers depend on that documentation during implementation, maintenance and troubleshooting. A diagram becomes misleading once services are renamed or integrations change without a corresponding documentation update. Keeping documentation updated becomes increasingly difficult as repositories, products and release cycles grow. Outdated or inconsistent images eventually find their way into […]

How to Avoid Repeating the “Automate Everything” Mistake Due to AI FOMO

The DevOps community has already experienced technological extremes. You might recall the time when automation was thought of as a panacea for all possible engineering issues, and the slogan “Automate Everything” was ringing out everywhere. Over time, the industry came to an important conclusion: Automation should not become the end goal. Along with faster software […]

Why Self-Healing Tests Need a Deployment Gate

When an end-to-end test fails after a front-end change, the repair often looks routine. A class name changed. A button moved. A selector that used to be unique now matches two elements. A self-healing system inspects the page, proposes a new locator, reruns the test, and gets a green result. That green result is useful, […]

Cursor Launches Origin Code Hosting Platform as GitHub Rival

AI coding provider Cursor has launched Origin, a code hosting platform that puts source code and AI coding agents inside the Cursor development environment. The new coding platform expands the company into a market long dominated by GitHub. The rollout arrived as GitHub suffered a major outage lasting more than six hours, disrupting pull requests, […]

LangChain’s dcode Isn’t New. Its Governance Play for Sensitive Code Is

Enterprises are running into the same wall with AI coding agents: the tools that write code fastest are usually the ones IT trusts least with sensitive codebases. Legacy modernization projects — COBOL migrations, .NET upgrades, decade-old frameworks nobody wants to touch by hand — are exactly where agentic coding tools could help most, and exactly […]
