As Winter Storm Fern made its way across the US this weekend, children across the country were glued to phones, computers, or televisions as they tried to guess how long they would be out of school this week. Little do they know, however, the data, science, and lack thereof, that goes into that decision. School closures are the very public end of a complex and fast-changing dataset that is highly dependent on locality and can be wildly different on either side of a district line.

Passwords a necessary evil: Are we ready for a passwordless world?

Jan 27, 2026 By Scott Gray,Product Marketing Manager In 11:11 Systems
For decades, passwords have been the gatekeepers of our digital lives. From logging into emails and banking apps to accessing social media and workplace systems, passwords have been the standard tool for authentication.

Carbon accounting software has become essential for organisations facing mandatory emissions reporting. But as sustainability data grows in strategic importance, the security and governance capabilities of these platforms matter as much as their calculation engines. Regulators now treat ESG disclosures with the same scrutiny as financial statements. Investors make decisions worth billions based on sustainability metrics. A data breach, integrity failure, or audit finding in this domain carries consequences that security teams cannot ignore.
