Today’s web consists of lots of 3rd party resources. Let it be your fonts, transformed and optimized media assets, or analytics and ad scripts, many sites out there include resources that they don’t own. Your website probably has a lot of those dependencies, too! And while implementing third-party resources has downsides for performance and you should self-host your assets when possible, sometimes relying on external files is unavoidable.
Stack overflows have notoriously plagued the development processes. They often can go undetected and can present themselves in obscure ways. We have implemented software mechanisms to protect against them, but these have limitations and still don’t protect against all conditions. With the maturity of the ARM architecture, wouldn’t it be better to have a fool-proof mechanism for detecting overflows?
Open-source software is driving some of the most exciting innovations today. According to The Linux Foundation, open-source constitutes about 70 to 90% of all modern software solutions. But it isn’t all fun and games: open-source software is free, which brings about operational inefficiencies due to a lack of financial support for their developers. Platforms like Switch and SubStack started incentivizing paid subscription models to solve this problem.
As the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to grow, transforming the way we live and work, it should be expected that there will be various security challenges to battle. This means that as a business owner, you should be ready to secure your devices and connections. Statista reports that there are currently 15.14 billion IoT-connected devices worldwide.
