Unauthorized access was detected to systems the ministry describes as primary processes within the policy department. Exactly what those systems contain or how deeply the intruders penetrated has not yet been disclosed.

Openreach has constructed a digital twin of the UK's transportation corridors, integrating data for 35 million homes and businesses with national road, rail and waterway networks and its existing fibre infrastructure.

In the cyberattack reported by Odido two weeks ago, personal data from more than 6 million accounts was stolen. The stolen information includes names, home and email addresses, phone numbers, dates of birth, bank account numbers, and ID numbers.

Conversations often sit outside enterprise systems, fragmented across devices and locations. As a result, it was reconnecting mobile calls to the business, ensuring continuity and control as work happens in real time. Part of the Wildix Mobility Cloud portfolio, the Wildix eSIM extends enterprise identity and intelligence directly to mobile calling.

Solvinity provides the platform on which DigiD, MijnOverheid, and secure communications for Justice and Security run. The CDA spoke of "critical infrastructure for the Netherlands" that must remain in Dutch or European hands. D66 member Sarah El Boujdaini also opposed the sale: "Digital resilience is national security." The concern extends beyond this acquisition alone. Experts had previously demanded transparency about the deal. Municipalities that chose Solvinity because of national control, including Amsterdam, also felt blindsided.

The Council is limited to 1,000 members globally. Each member is selected through an application and review process. The Council is designed to bring together experienced leaders who want peer conversations, meaningful connections, and visibility through editorial and event participation. Members gain editorial participation opportunities across the platform, access to curated expert panels, and verified executive profiles. They receive priority access to conferences, invitations to private gatherings and closed sessions, and entry to a curated network of founders and senior executives.

ShinyHunters leaked 1 million Odido records for the second day in a row. According to Have I Been Pwned, which is ingesting the data from each day's leaks, the first million contained 317,000 unique email addresses, while the second round consisted of 371,000. Details associated with those accounts include bank account numbers, other basic personal information, passport numbers, driving licenses, and customer service comments.

According to Li Mandri, ING's centralised approach to AI development has resulted in a high success rate for pilot projects, with 90% moving to production compared to the industry average of 30. The bank has standardised on cloud-hosted AI models from preferred partners, which are then made available globally, allowing ING to scale. He says the platform is centrally managed with risk controls, guardrails and real-time monitoring.

The Netherlands has the opportunity to build a European data center with 100,000 AI chips and 20 petabytes of storage, but the government is lagging behind in terms of financial commitment. Energy company Eneco and data center party Volt, who together want to build the AI gigafactory, warn that neighboring countries are moving ahead and emptying the EU subsidy pot of 20 billion euros. "While the Netherlands actually has very good conditions," according to Eneco.

Edge computing is a type of IT infrastructure in which data is collected, stored, and processed near the "edge" or on the device itself instead of being transmitted to a centralized processor. Edge computing systems usually involve a network of devices, sensors, or machinery capable of data processing and interconnection. A main benefit of edge computing is its low latency. Since each endpoint processes information near the source, it can be easier to process data, respond to requests, and produce detailed analytics.

AWS has moved quickly to flood the European continent with its elastic compute fabric, but while it may take two years to bring a new datacenter online, securing power for the facilities can take up to seven years, Pamela MacDougall, who heads energy markets and regulation for AWS EMEA, said in an interview with Reuters this week.

The mass roll-out of fibre networks is seen as the key to the expansion of digital services across major economies, but research from Kearney is warning that a €174bn funding shortfall facing Europe's telecoms sector is putting 2030 gigabit and 5G connectivity targets at risk, meaning around 45 million Europeans could remain without adequate high-speed connectivity by the end of the decade.

"Our shared commitment to advancing IoT innovation creates a unique opportunity to power some of the most advanced IoT solutions globally," he said. "Through our close alignment on values, culture and commitment to service, we can accelerate adoption across industries, enabling operators and enterprises to unlock the full potential of connected ecosystems. Together, we will make LoRaWAN the default infrastructure for massive IoT."
