EC-Council, creator of the world-renowned Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) credential and a global leader in applied cybersecurity education, today launched its Enterprise AI Credential Suite, with four new role-based AI certifications debuting alongside Certified CISO v4, an overhauled executive cyber leadership program. The dual launch is the largest single expansion of EC-Council's portfolio in its 25-year history. It addresses a structural gap that no single tool, platform, or policy can solve alone: AI is scaling faster than the workforce trained to run, secure, and govern it.

Refrigeration is one of the most important elements of a successful food safety program, regardless of whether you run a retail operation, catering service or restaurant. Smart refrigeration technologies allow for greater protection against spoilage, reduced time spent monitoring refrigerators/freezers and the ability to provide inspections without the need for manual monitoring. Keep reading to find out how smart refrigeration technology works, and the ways in which it protects your business.

There is a growing emphasis on database compliance today due to the stricter enforcement of compliance rules and regulations to safeguard user privacy. For example, GDPR fines can reach £17.5 million or 4% of annual global turnover (the higher of the two applies). Besides the direct monetary implications, companies also need to prioritize compliance to protect their brand reputation and achieve growth.

As UK businesses enter 2026, many small and medium-sized enterprises are taking time to review the systems that support their day-to-day operations. Staffing, compliance, budgeting and customer experience are often top of the agenda, particularly for companies operating in competitive or regulated sectors. One area that is frequently overlooked, however, is workwear. Despite being a daily necessity for many teams, workwear is rarely treated as a strategic consideration. Yet the right work uniform can directly influence professionalism, safety, staff confidence and onboarding speed.

ISO 9001 certification is a globally recognized accolade, attesting to an organization's commitment to quality excellence.

There's been an explosion in the growth of corporate eLearning initiatives in the post-COVID era. That's due in part to the growth in remote work and geographically distributed teams. Unfortunately, there are always growing pains when any corporate initiative scales up in a hurry. In the case of eLearning, one of those growing pains is a tendency to let data privacy standards fall by the wayside.

In today's digital workplaces, cyber threats rarely begin with broken systems. They begin with everyday actions-opening emails, sharing information, or accessing online platforms. Security awareness training helps reduce cyber attack risks by strengthening how individuals recognize and respond to these situations. Rather than focusing on technical controls alone, organizations are increasingly prioritizing cyber awareness as a core defense strategy. When users understand common threats such as phishing, social engineering, and unsafe online behavior, they are better equipped to prevent incidents before damage occurs.

Personal Track Safety refers to the rules, procedures, and behaviours that allow workers to operate safely on or near live railway lines. It's designed to minimise risks from moving trains, electrical systems, and environmental hazards. PTS is not just about memorising rules. It's about understanding why they exist and how they apply in real working conditions. When workers grasp this early, they're far more likely to act decisively and safely when situations change.

We are now in a time of manufacturing where precision is more than a technical necessity; it's a business requirement. The more complex, globally dispersed and demanding things get, the less slack remains in the system. Under these circumstances tolerance management has become a decisive competence and affects competitiveness not only in terms of controlling costs, ensuring quality and improving production efficiency but also for long term market success.

Organizations have reported heightened cybersecurity risks as a result of these skill shortages, but the issues don't end there. Many teams will also experience burnout, which is an issue for security teams even in the best of times, which can only add to the talent gap concern if burnt out employees leave the industry.

I belong to six professional organizations. Or maybe it's 13, 19, 26, or 47. I can't be sure. The ones where I pay dues or volunteer I know well: ASIS International, the Life Safety Alliance, Chartered Security Professionals, and a couple of others. Then come the niche and industry-specific associations like the International Council of Shopping Centers, public-private partnerships such as OSAC and Infragard, and the countless ASIS Communities.

Building security into the framework of an organization prevents security from being seen as a barrier to daily activities. If an employee feels as if a security measure is inhibiting them from completing their daily tasks, they're far more likely to find a way around that measure. This can range from propping open a door to using the same easy-to-remember password for every account.

The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is the definitive standard for DoW contractors to demonstrate security competence. Whether viewed as necessary progress or an audit burden, CMMC represents a strategic career investment - and a strong entry point for practitioners looking to specialize. It is poised to reshape cybersecurity roles in the defense sector, making certification a strategic move for advancement.

Siemens has published eight new advisories. The company has released patches and mitigations for high-severity issues in Desigo CC, Sentron Powermanager, Simcenter Femap and Nastran, NX, Sinec NMS, Solid Edge, and Polarion products. A medium-severity flaw has been found in Siveillance Video Management Servers. Exploitation of the vulnerabilities can lead to unauthorized access, XSS, DoS, code execution, and privilege escalation.

Hoang: My background sits at the intersection of enterprise IT, data protection, and cybersecurity. I've spent much of my career working with CIOs and CISOs on resilience - how organizations protect, recover, and govern their most critical data in the face of cyber threats, outages, and operational risk. Today, as CIO at Commvault, I see security not as a standalone function, but as a core business capability.

Vulnerabilities discovered by researchers in Dormakaba physical access control systems could have allowed hackers to remotely open doors at major organizations. The security holes were discovered by experts at SEC Consult, a cybersecurity consulting firm under Atos-owned Eviden, in Dormakaba's Exos central management software, a hardware access manager, and registration units that enable entry via a keypad, fingerprint reader, or chip card.
