How Teams Are Scaling Playwright Beyond Local CI
The numbers back it up. Adoption among professional QA teams grew from 12% to 45% between 2023 and 2025 — surpassing Selenium in active adoption on new projects for the first time. Weekly npm downloads have grown from 1.2 million to 52 million over the same period. More than 12,000 companies now run Playwright in…
The Three Hardest Arguments Against White-Box Cryptography–and Why They Miss the Point
In part 1 of the series , we looked at where hardware security stops: why Android’s TLS stack bypasses StrongBox entirely, why hardware fragmentation leaves most of your users unprotected, and why hardware security can’t defend the protocol layer from binary reverse engineering. If you haven’t read it, that context matters here. This post addresses a…
The myth of “rip-and-replace” software delivery in regulated enterprises
In regulated industries, the pressure to “modernize the delivery toolchain” is relentless. Every year brings a new promise: a single cloud-native delivery platform, a consolidated pipeline, an opinionated way of working that will finally eliminate friction. But for regulated enterprises, ripping and replacing software delivery solutions is often just a different kind of risk—because the…
Why Healthcare Workflows Are Hard to Test
In healthcare applications, the workflows that matter most are often the hardest to test. Not just individual features, but complete workflows—patient monitoring, clinical documentation, prescription management, and connected device interactions. These workflows don’t operate in isolation. They depend on devices, environments, systems, and conditions that standard testing approaches don’t always handle well. Healthcare Workflows Extend…
Your Hardware Security Is Working. That’s Not the Problem.
We hear a version of this objection regularly: “We’re already using Android StrongBox. We have ECDH key exchange. Our keys never leave the hardware. Why would we need white-box cryptography on top of that?” It’s a fair question. StrongBox, TEE-backed Keystore, and ECDH are genuinely strong technologies. Dismissing them would be intellectually dishonest–and unhelpful. So…
Migrating from Jira Data Center for Regulated Enterprises
Understanding Jira Data Center end-of-life Jira Data Center is where delivery commitments are made, portfolio plans are reviewed, dependencies are surfaced, risks are escalated, and governance evidence is assembled. Years of fields, workflows, automations, reports, scripts, apps, permissions, and local exceptions have turned Jira Data Center into part of the operating model. That is why…
Cyber Resilience Act Compliance & Application Security
Most organizations approaching the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) are investing in the wrong layer. They are strengthening pipelines, expanding scanning coverage, and documenting risk assessments in detail. All of that activity happens before release. The regulation places legal accountability after release, when the product is already distributed and operating in environments the manufacturer does not…
How Digital.ai Deploy Makes GitOps A Reliable, Governed Model
Executive summary Deploy 26.1 introduces a tightly scoped GitOps capability that centers on a specific layer of delivery configuration: managing Deploy Infrastructure and Environment configuration items as YAML in Git, then synchronizing those definitions between Git and Deploy through explicit control task executions. Understanding The Challenges Problem A frequent Git-centered workflow bottleneck in enterprise delivery…
Healthcare Application Testing: Why Failures Escape Detection
Why Critical Healthcare Application Failures Often Escape Testing Picture this: A nurse reviews patient information during a shift change. A patient checks glucose readings from home through a connected monitoring app. Someone else tries to refill a prescription before running out of medication. Different healthcare experiences. Same expectation: The application needs to work reliably under…
From App Store to Clone: How AI Turns Your .ipa Into a Blueprint
AI – Accelerating Reverse Engineering Every iOS app you ship to the App Store is a compiled binary. It is stripped of your comments, your variable names, your architecture diagrams, and your documentation. For decades, that compilation step felt like a meaningful barrier. Reverse engineering was hard. It required specialists, weeks of work, and a…
