VPN vs ZTNA: Time to retire the tunnel?

The VPN has been the default answer to remote access for more than 20 years. It was designed for a world where users sat in offices, applications sat in the data centre, and the occasional remote worker needed a tunnel back in....

Will Upgrading to F5 rSeries Improve my Quantum Resilience?

When sufficiently powerful machines arrive, today’s encryption standards - RSA, ECC, and others - will be rendered obsolete. The UK’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has already set a 2028 milestone for all of us to complete cryptographic inventories and prepare for post-quantum migration. For many, one of the most strategic steps towards quantum resilience is already on the roadmap for F5 customers: upgrading from iSeries to rSeries.

Crypto-Agility explained; why you need it before 2028

Crypto-agility is your organisation’s ability to quickly adapt to new cryptographic standards without disrupting business operations. Today, most organisations rely on fixed algorithms like RSA or ECC.

Preparing for the Quantum Future: A Practical Guide to the NCSC Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Roadmap

The threat posed by future quantum computers is no longer theoretical. When these machines arrive (or sooner) today’s encryption systems will be at risk, as quantum algorithms such as Shor’s could break widely used public-key schemes. Experts speak of a looming “Q-Day”, and the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has set out a clear, phased PQC roadmap we should all act on now.

When does my F5 expire? Here’s How to Find Out

If you're wondering “When does my F5 expire?” (whether it's hardware, software or virtual) you're not alone. Many people run into critical lifecycle milestones without realising it, putting performance, security, and compliance at risk.

What’s in a Name? Full Proxies Explained

Someone asked us recently how we got our name, and we enjoyed answering the question so much we thought we’d share the story - and get full proxies explained at the same time.

Simplifying Security Through a Unified Cyber Security Platform

In this blog, learn the importance of shifting to a platform-based approach. Traditional cyber security approaches reliant on isolated, fragmented solutions are proving insufficient. We see increasing evidence of the main pain points that effect business and public sector organisations:

Why TLS Certificate Lifecycle Reduction Improves Security

The push for certificate lifecycle reduction stems from a fundamental truth: certificate lifecycle management is not a team member’s core job role – it's often an afterthought and annoyance, a general admin task. With these changes, this will fundamentally not be the case.
