Several weeks ago, the Linux community was rocked by the disturbing news that University of Minnesota researchers had developed (but, as it turned out, not fully executed) a method for introducing what they called “hypocrite commits” to the Linux kernel — the idea being to distribute hard-to-detect behaviors, meaningless in themselves, that could later be aligned by … Continued

If you’ve been following along, you see how Cloudy brought together a strong understanding of identity, phishing-resistant authentication, good rules for authorizing people and groups, and checks on device health — all to make sure the cloud environment, with its software, data and processes, is safe for employees and end users. Want to go back and refresh your memory? See the whole series at gcpcomics.comThe last piece of the puzzle is the security policy that ties it all togetherUse your understanding about your systems, services and applications to set policies that make sense for your specific set of risks and goals. In this issue you can see how, and why, Cloudy and Dino pull it all together.Click to enlargeThis process of defining rules and policies involves collaboration between security and identity teams, application owners, compliance and other internal groups. Setting up the right policies means deciding exactly how and when people earn the appropriate levels of trust that your organization establishes for accessing internal services and corporate resources like SaaS applications. A framework for levels of trust can actually be pretty simple. For example:High: The most trusted, in line with all security policies and recommendations, and able to access the most secure servicesMedium: Limited trust when out of compliance for some policies.Low: Useful for devices that are in the inventory but not properly set up, or have had issues and need remediationNone: The default state for any unknown or unrecognized deviceWe want to keep things as simple as possible, without diluting them to be overly simplistic. So if you need more granular policies, or have specific regulatory requirements around roles, data stores or offices, you always have the flexibility to customize policies to suit your needs. Increase the security posture of your organization by implementing a modern security model to help ensure only authorized users from trusted devices can access specific resources.

Sie können jetzt ganz einfach die in einer Amazon-Region verfügbaren Amazon EMR-Versionen auflisten und die mit jeder Amazon EMR-Version verfügbaren Anwendungen beschreiben. Wenn Sie früher Amazon EMR-Cluster in neuen Regionen oder mit der neuesten Version einer Anwendung starten wollten, mussten Sie die Versionshinweise lesen und Ihren Cluster-Start-Workflow manuell aktualisieren. Mit den neuen API-Parametern können Sie diese Informationen nun programmatisch ermitteln und so die Arbeitsabläufe beim Start von Clustern automatisieren.

Last summer, as the world adjusted to pandemic life, Jessica Petrie knew that she had to make changes to how she ran her studio, Yoga Next Door.
She quickly figured out how to stream her classes from her studio in the beautiful woods of Maine, and adapted her business model to offer video learning and online payment. While looking forward to a return to in-real-life classes and retreats, she refused to be set back by the pandemic, and found a way to allow her students to continue their yoga practice from the safety of their homes.
We are always learning from customers like Jessica — or Steven Gaither, Wali Pitt, and Tolly Carr of HBCU Gameday. The trio doubled down on understanding their growing audience, while staying focused on their important coverage of sports and culture at Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Their expert use of SEO tools has helped them increase site traffic along the way.
They are not alone: many WordPress.com creators have grown their audiences while publishing on social and cultural movements around the world, signaling their resilience, adaptability, and impact in challenging times.
We are proud to feature Jessica Petrie, HBCU Gameday, and other inspiring customers at the second Official WordPress.com Growth Summit, on Tuesday, August 17 (Wednesday, August 18, for Asia-Pacific timezones). You can still buy your ticket and learn from these incredible customers:
Muslim Girl
Amani al-Khatahtbeh started a website, Muslim Girl, and a movement. Whether highlighting prominent Muslim women in the Olympics or in the media, or diving into issues like human trafficking and marriage in modern Islam culture, Amani has created a platform focused on raising awareness, amplifying young voices, and fostering open dialogue. Beyond this, Amani is building a community around the diverse identities of Muslim women in the West — on #MuslimWomensDay (heading into its sixth year next March) and every day.
CalMatters
CEO Neil Chase and VP of Product Strategy Kim Fox will talk about their nonprofit, nonpartisan newsroom, CalMatters, with our own Kinsey Wilson, the head of Newspack (the open-source publishing and revenue-generating platform for news organizations.) CalMatters not only covers policy and politics in California; they also help empower emerging publishers with their digital platforms. We’ll learn how they started, how they sustain their operation, and what they see ahead in digital news.
Zaloa Languages
Anja Spilker is the founder of Mexico-based company Zaloa Languages, which offers online language learning with native teachers to an international audience. Anja is that rare and powerful combination of founder, CEO, and influencer. She’s equally adept at sharing her life behind the scenes as she is in shifting her business model, significantly increasing revenue, and creating a compelling brand with a sophisticated ecommerce approach. Listening to her tell the story of Zaloa Languages will be a masterclass on its own.
HBCU Gameday
With HBCU Gameday, Steven J. Gaither spotted an underrepresented niche in the vast sports media landscape. He teamed up with experienced journalist Tolly Carr and digital technologist and video producer Wali Pitt to create a publication with an important focus on HBCU sports stories of culture and substance. They’re hands-on in understanding how their audience finds them, all while adopting new formats (video!) seamlessly.
Workprint
David Nitzche is a master of short-form storytelling, and he’s making a business out of it. We’ll learn how he weaves trailers, music videos, and creative for Apple, Marvel, National Geographic, Red Bull, Netflix, Google, and more. David will also talk about how he’s evolved his career from freelance editor to launching his own post-production studio, Workprint, in Los Angeles in the middle of the pandemic.
Yoga Next Door
If the story of how Jessica borrowed her son’s GoPro camera to quickly experiment with offering her classes by online video doesn’t inspire you, Yoga Next Door’s return to real-life retreats will. But you just may learn most from Jessica’s on-the-fly business savvy, including how she set up a digital library for customers while continuing to share her mindfulness and yoga expertise willingly. (So willingly that she’ll offer attendees a mid-Summit yoga and mindfulness session.)
STATURE
Which of Nick Engvall’s ventures can you learn most from? We found him via Sneaker History, the podcast he launched with and for fellow sneakerheads, drawing on his own content-creating background with brands like StockX and Finish Line. But we’ll also explore his creative agency STATURE, his hands-on thought leadership for podcasters and creators, his advocacy of WordPress, and how he finds time for it all!
If we have time, that is. Because all of these speakers have many stories to tell and ideas to share, and we have a packed Summit agenda that also includes sessions with our own talented Happiness Engineers, who will lead workshops on blogging, podcasting, building an audience, and SEO.
We hope you’ll join us at the Summit this week — and just as importantly, we hope you’ll keep working on your thing, too. We’d love to feature you someday soon.
