Authenticate ggshield with GitGuardian (browser login, tokens, and api-status)

Now that ggshield is installed, the next step is to authenticate it with GitGuardian so it can scan and talk to the API. The most common method is browser-based login: ggshield auth login This opens your browser and prompts you to sign in through the GitGuardian dashboard. It automatically generates an access token for you and stores it safely in your local configuration. By default, the token is scoped for secret scanning, which is what most people need. We’ll revisit scopes later.

2026 Cybersecurity Predictions by Teleport CEO Ev Kontsevoy

2025 was a turning point for identity security. Many professionals realized that traditional human and machine-focused identity solutions just don’t work for AI. AI is non-deterministic like a human, yet it’s still software. This creates an entirely new identity category. Traditional IAM tools would treat AI identities as yet another separate type, creating new silos.

Why AppSec and Network Risk Management Must Be Unified in the Modern Enterprise

How Mend.io’s ServiceNow integration helps organizations manage application, network, and operational risks together—at scale. Managing AppSec and network risk as separate programs is no longer realistic for enterprise security teams. Today’s digital environments are interconnected, distributed, and constantly changing. A single misconfiguration, unpatched server, or vulnerable open-source component can become a point of exploitation when combined with weaknesses elsewhere in the stack.

Creating Temperature-Zoned Swim Areas in Custom Pools

People often imagine a pool as one uniform body of water, yet modern design has started to shift that expectation. More homeowners want their pools to adapt to the way they move throughout the day, which explains why temperature-zoned swim areas are becoming such a popular feature. Instead of choosing between a warm soak or a cool swim, you can create a layout that lets you wander between different sensations. It gives a pool a layered personality and invites people to use it in new ways.

Keeping Backup Equipment Secure While Strengthening Digital Defenses

During power outages, cyber-attack incidents, and hardware failure, backup devices allow for many systems to be operational without interruption. To ensure that a backup device operates effectively, it must be maintained in a secure location and in good condition. When backup devices are lost, exposed to environmental conditions, or unorganized, the chance of a backup device working when it is most needed is diminished significantly, which increases the risk of an organization losing access to a required digital resource.

Best Managed Vultr Cloud Hosting Providers for Performance and Ease

Using Vultr directly is fast and affordable, but it comes with a tradeoff. You get a powerful cloud server, then you are on your own. Every update, every security patch, every performance tweak, and every outage becomes your responsibility. For some teams, that level of control is fine. For many others, it becomes a distraction.
