Monday news from ITSPmagazine 🙂 #happymonday!

Join Marc Manzano, Sean Martin, CISSP and me on this week SandboxAQ Webinar!

After an incredible conversation with Marc on the #RSAC floor in San Francisco — where Sean and I used every second of our time and still had more to explore — I knew the #Sandbox Story couldn’t stop there.

If you missed that on-location episode from #RSAC2025, catch it here:

👉 Security at the Edge of Change – A Brand Story with Marc Manzano from SandboxAQ

Now, we’re keeping the momentum going with a live ITSPmagazine webinar you don’t want to miss — and I won’t either. 🤘😬

🔐 How To Detect And Mitigate Non-Human Identity And Cryptographic Vulnerabilities | An ITSPmagazine Webinar with SandboxAQ

Join Marc, Sean, and me as we dig deeper into how SandboxAQ is tackling one of today’s most urgent security challenges.

By attending, you’ll:

🔸 Gain visibility into cryptographic assets and non-human identities like API keys, certificates, and service accounts

🔸 See how #AQtiveGuard enables automated discovery, threat detection, and root cause analysis without disrupting workflows

🔸 Learn how to future-proof your security with Post-Quantum Cryptography readiness and AI-powered #SecOps

Tom Cruise Gives His Ex Nicole Kidman A Compliment — But It’s Also Self-Serving

The “Top Gun” star has said very little about his ex-wife since their 2001 split.

^{Elyse Wanshel (HuffPost)}

Most people don't trust most news most of the time, according to research from the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism. “Our problem is not simply that the public does not trust us, it’s that they do trust other dishonest brokers,” said Columbia Journalism School dean Jelani Cobb. He says that journalists should be more transparent in order to create trust. Nieman Lab's Gretel Kahn spoke to editors and journalists in Spain, Sweden, the U.S. and the U.S. about what that might look like. "We often make mistakes," says Eva Belmonte, managing editor of Spanish news outlet Civio. "But if you have explained how you've reached your conclusion and then you have done it wrong, at least you have explained your process."

Do you think greater transparency would increase trust in media?

These newsrooms are trying to boost trust through transparency. Is it working?

"Our work is the most valuable where we're creating a discourse that isn't just informing people, but actually getting them involved with the creation of good information."
