Docker Hardened Images: Security Independently Validated by SRLabs Earlier this week, we took a major step forward for the industry. Docker Hardened Images (DHI) is now available at no cost, bringing secure-by-default development to every team, everywhere. Anyone can now start from a secure, minimal, production-ready foundation from the first pull, without a subscription. With that decision comes a responsibility: if Docker Hardened Images become…
AI is generating code faster than teams can secure it, widening software supply chain risk and exposing major gaps in AppSec and governance.
Earlier this week, we took a major step forward for the industry. Docker Hardened Images (DHI) is now available at no cost, bringing secure-by-default development to every team, everywhere. Anyone can now start from a secure, minimal, production-ready foundation from the first pull, without a subscription. With that decision comes a responsibility: if Docker Hardened Images become the new starting point for modern development, then developers must be able to trust them completely. Not because we say they’re secure, but because they prove it: under scrutiny, under pressure, and through independent validation. Security threats evolve constantly. Supply chains grow more complex. Attackers…
Imagine this: You’re in your Tesla, going from your home to the sunny beaches by the Mediterranean Sea. You feel sleepy, so you take a nap. The car drives all by itself – through big highways, twisty mountain roads, and busy towns. It stops at lights, changes lanes, and parks when you get there. Wow!This cool thing is called Full Self-Driving (Supervised), or FSD for short.Right now, people in places like America, China, Australia, and New Zealand can use it.But in Europe, it’s not ready yet because of strict rules about car safety.Tesla is working super hard to get permission.…
In a modern enterprise digital landscape, organizations are increasingly migrating between cloud platforms not merely for technical benefits but to support strategic business imperatives ranging from cost savings to market expansion. This shift represents a fundamental rethinking of how modern enterprises approach their technology infrastructure. Techstrong Research polled our community of infrastructure and systems management […]
Python is widely regarded as one of the easiest programming languages for beginners due to its simple syntax and versatility. However, despite its beginner-friendly design, many students still make common mistakes when learning Python. These mistakes can create unnecessary confusion and slow down the learning process. This article will highlight some of the most frequent errors Python learners encounter and provide practical advice on how to avoid them.1. Overlooking the Importance of IndentationOne of the most fundamental mistakes Python learners make is overlooking the importance of indentation. In Python, indentation is not just for readability – it is syntactically significant.…

L2TP (which stands for Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol) is a tunneling protocol designed to support virtual private networks (VPN connections) over the internet. It is implemented in most if not all, modern operating systems including Linux and VPN-capable devices. The L2TP does not provide any authentication or encryption mechanisms directly to traffic that passes through it; it is usually implemented with the IPsec authentication suite (L2TP/IPsec) to provide encryption within the L2TP tunnel. In this article, we will show how to set up an L2TP/IPSec VPN connection in Ubuntu-based distributions and Fedora Linux. Prerequisites This guide assumes that the L2TP/IPsec…
