At Smallstep, we've been championing ACME Device Attestation (ACME DA), a specification we co-authored with Google at the IETF. Last week, we released client agents for MacOS, Windows and Linux that communicate directly with the TPM/Secure Enclave on the device to provide the highest level of assurance that the client device is who it says it is. For #Okta customers, we've integrated Smallstep into Okta so administrators can easily add a high assurance hardware identity check as an additional factor of identification, ensuring that only known corporate devices can access sensitive corporate resources. #ZeroTrust

    Hey everyone! Apple is diving into the world of smart home devices with a slick, iPad-like tabletop gadget! Imagine managing your smart home, security, and video calls all from a rotating screen on a robotic arm – that's what they’re aiming for. Slated for a 2026 debut, it'll be powered by iPadOS with voice commands via Siri and Apple Intelligence. They're pushing this new tech hard after shelving their Apple Car project. However, there's some buzz internally about whether folks will dish out the $1,000 price tag given their existing tablets. Also, keep an eye out for their other potential game-changers like smart glasses and foldable iPhones. Want to dive deeper?

    🚨 Breaking News in Cybersecurity! 🚨 NIST, the cool nerds at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, have just dropped three fresh, post-quantum encryption algorithms ready to defend against those sci-fi-level quantum computers poised to make hacking a walk in the park in about a decade. These guys have worked eight years to serve us with robust digital defenses that can secure everything from general encryption (FIPS 203) to digital signatures (FIPS 204 and FIPS 205).NIST’s beckoned cybersecurity pros to start integrating these bad boys ASAP and keep our data shields up. Remember, strong fortresses now will keep the quantum invaders at bay later. Dive into the details via [NIST’s official update](https://lnkd.in/gpzzGBBk). #CyberSecurity #QuantumComputing

    Hey folks, remember what happened at CrowdStrike recently? They had a massive outage in July that took down 8.5 million Windows systems worldwide. Turns out, the culprit was a mishap between Content Validator inputs and Content Interpreter's expectations, causing a system crash. At the Black Hat USA #BHUSA 2024 conference, CEO George Kurtz owned up to the blunder publicly, and they’re making serious changes to prevent this in the future.Even more, at #DEFCON 32 they scooped up a Pwnie Award for "Most Epic Fail," which they'll display as a constant reminder of this colossal error.

    Hey everyone, big news in the streaming world! Google is retiring the beloved Chromecast in favor of their new Google TV Streamer. Understandable given how much smart TV technology has progressed, but not all TVs deliver a smooth experience without extra help. Lackluster performance is common in budget TVs, so a $30-$50 Chromecast was an ace in bridging that gap. Now, with its departure, the Fire TV Stick may swoop in to fill the space. Curious if Google's move adds up? Dive into the full scoop at [this link](https://lnkd.in/g-B6RdHb). #TechNews #StreamingInnovation

    Google's reason for ending the Chromecast makes sense, but there's an obvious problem https://9to5google.com
