Mitigating Inside and Outside Threats with Zero Trust Security
As ransomware and phishing attacks increase, it is evident that attack vectors can be found on the inside in abundance. Zero Trust Security can be thought of as a new security architecture approach where the main goals are: verifying endpoints before any network communications take place, giving least privilege to endpoints, and continuously evaluating the endpoints throughout the communication.

Avoiding Technical Bankruptcy: a Whole-Organization Perspective on Technical Debt
Technical debt is not primarily caused by clumsy programming, and hence we cannot hope to fix it by more skilled programming alone. Rather, technical debt is a third-order effect of poor communication. What we observe and label “technical debt” is the by-product of a dysfunctional process. To fix the problem of accumulating technical debt, we need to fix this broken process.

Remote Ensemble Testing - How an Experiment Shaped the Way We Work
This article shares how an experiment evolved into a common practice at the workplace, using an experimental approach with remote ensemble testing to get teammates on our cross-functional team more involved in the testing activities of the jointly created product. This all started in the times of a global pandemic where the entire team was working from home.

Six Features From Java 12 to 17 to Get Excited About!
Oracle maintains an ambitious release schedule for new versions of Java, having one fixed release every six months. Although frequent, only some versions are considered long-term support, which means they’ll have premium maintenance for three years. In this article, I review some of the language additions between Java 12 and 17, for anyone interested in what’s been happening since Java 11.
