Securing Your Business: The Essential Beginner's Guide to Cybersecurity

Cyberattacks targeting financial institutions are increasing at an unprecedented pace. In June 2025, Iran was hit by a large-scale digital operation aimed at destabilizing its banks and cryptocurrency exchange platforms. This attack, orchestrated by the hacker group Predatory Sparrow, marks a turning point in cyber warfare. It shows that banking systems are no longer merely economic targets—they are now strategic and political levers in geopolitical cyber conflicts. For the

Quantum computing is reaching a major technological milestone: quantum computers powerful enough to break classical asymmetric cryptography are not yet here, but experts are highlighting an imminent danger: the "harvest now, decrypt later" scenario. In this scenario, malicious actors capture encrypted data today in order to decrypt it tomorrow, when quantum power becomes accessible. Faced with this threat, Switzerland is taking action: banks, public institutions, and multinat

In June 2025, Microsoft announced a $400 million investment to strengthen its data centers located near Geneva and Zurich. This decision, confirmed during a meeting between Swiss Minister of Economy Guy Parmelin and Microsoft Vice President Brad Smith, aims to strengthen the cloud and artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure resident in Switzerland. Thanks to this project, sensitive data will remain in the country, a crucial requirement for the healthcare, finance, and p

For several weeks, an intense debate has been raging in the Swiss digital landscape. The issue: the ongoing revision of the Federal Act on the Surveillance of Postal and Telecommunications Correspondence (LSCPT). This bill aims to require providers of VPN, encrypted messaging, and cloud hosting services operating in Switzerland to retain certain metadata related to their users' connections and to transmit it to the authorities upon request. This text, if adopted, would upset

In a constantly evolving technological world, IT professionals face increasing challenges in software development, deployment, and system maintenance. The DevOps movement, a fusion of development (Dev) and operations (Ops) practices, is emerging as a strategic response to improve collaboration, efficiency, and the quality of software delivery. Adopting DevOps best practices is becoming essential for IT teams aiming to optimize their processes and meet modern market demands.

In today's digital landscape, the need for robust cybersecurity measures is more crucial than ever. With cyberattacks on the rise,...

Penetration testing (or pentesting) is an essential practice in cybersecurity, consisting of simulating attacks on a computer system to identify and remediate vulnerabilities before they can be exploited by malicious actors.

In modern software architectures, especially those based on microservices, efficiently managing communications between clients and backend services is crucial. This is where the API Gateway comes in, a core software component that acts as a single point of entry for all external requests.
