I'm pleased to see two of my favorite tech companies, IBM and Threema, working together to get PQC protections into the Threema messaging app.

Grumpy old sysadmin, #Linux, #OpenSource. #privacy & #security fanatic.
Happily running Linux as my daily driver since 1992.
Happily rocking my fedora at #RedHat since 2013.
Very, very married....

In IT, we often accept the "patching treadmill" as inevitable. But Red Hat’s Project Hummingbird is chasing the holy grail: a near-zero CVE reality.
By using minimal, image-based RHEL deployments, we can eliminate the "noise" of irrelevant vulnerabilities and focus on what matters. It’s about shrinking the attack surface by design, not just by reaction.

Learn about Red Hat's Project Hummingbird, a solution designed to deliver minimal, hardened container images with a near zero CVE approach. Discover how it simplifies vulnerability management and enhances security for critical sectors.
Another reason I love working at Red Hat is smart people who ever so politely tell me when I goof up 🤣
Thank you, the link has been corrected and hopefully people will see what I had meant to say...🤦♂️
Quantum computing offers huge leaps in tech, but also massive risks.
Full-scale quantum is still years away, but the threat is here now. Through "harvest now, decrypt later," bad actors are already capturing encrypted data to crack once the hardware catches up.
The time to prepare is today. Check out our latest blog to see how Red Hat is staying ahead of the curve and securing the post-quantum future:

Great article if you're a data analyst wondering how to use R on Fedora! We appreciate the extra insight that Hank brings to the role as it has evolved.

AI developer assistance is a game-changer. Which direction it changes your game in depends on a number of variables. My colleague Louis Imershein's series on Medium explains how to succeed with AI coding assistants on RHEL, focusing this installment on configuring Amazon Q Developer for RHEL.

Or...perhaps there's just been a significant drop in the ability of humans to think critically since Turing's time?
