📅 - Coro has signed a DACH distribution deal with QBS Software, giving resellers in Germany, Austria and Switzerland access to its cybersecurity platform through the Prianto brand. The arrangement extends Coro's EMEA channel strategy and targets mid-market companies that want broader protection without building larger security teams or stitching together more point tools internally.
The commercial logic is not complicated. DACH has a deep base of industrial, services and Mittelstand-style companies with real cyber exposure and limited security staffing. Many are too complex for basic SMB security bundles, but not large enough to run sprawling enterprise security operations. Vendors love that [...][... Check source for end of article ...]
📅 - QIZ Lands $17M as Quantum Cryptography Risk Grows - QIZ Security has raised $17 million in seed funding to build its cryptographic posture and post-quantum cryptography management platform, as enterprises begin confronting a security migration that could outlast normal technology refresh cycles. Bessemer Venture Partners and Merlin Ventures led the round, joined by Evolution Equity Partners, Qbeat Ventures, Singtel Innov8 and Qino Cyber Capital.
The company is entering a market that is suddenly less theoretical than it used to be. Quantum risk has lived for years in conference decks, national security briefings and vendor roadmaps. Now the problem is moving into asset inventories, audit committees and procurement language.
Not because [...]
📅 - Cerebras Plans 200 MW Europe AI Data Center Buildout by 2027 - Cerebras Systems plans to bring European AI data center capacity online by late 2026, then scale across France and the Nordics to 200 MW by the end of 2027. Some capacity is expected to serve OpenAI workloads, putting Cerebras' inference infrastructure closer to European customers asking for faster, regionally located compute, under tighter sovereignty expectations today too.
The company is talking about Norway and Finland for 2027 deployments, with France also part of the planned build-out. That geography is doing work. Cheap or cleaner power. Cooler climates. Grid politics. Data residency pressure. Europe wants AI capacity, but not only as imported API access from U.S. platforms running [...]
📅 - MegazoneCloud Brings Pasqal Quantum Access to Korea - Pasqal and MegazoneCloud have signed an agreement to explore quantum computing services in South Korea, linking Pasqal's neutral-atom systems with MegazoneCloud's managed cloud reach, enterprise customers and possible on-site deployments. The deal is not a product launch. It is a market-access move aimed at making quantum look less experimental to Korean enterprise buyers and procurement teams alike.
The memorandum of understanding gives both companies room to test commercial routes without promising too much too early. Pasqal gets a domestic channel in one of Asia's most demanding technology markets. MegazoneCloud gets a quantum story for customers already spending heavily on cloud, AI, [...]
📅 - Rackspace, Palantir Launch Framework for Enterprise AI - Rackspace Technology and Palantir have introduced a framework for running AI in regulated and sovereign environments, combining Palantir Foundry and AIP with Rackspace private cloud, on-premises infrastructure, certified engineers and managed operations. The model targets customers that need control over data location, security rules, governance and production outcomes, not another AI pilot program alone.
The framework is aimed at the organizations least able to treat AI as a loose cloud experiment: hospitals, banks, energy operators, government-linked bodies and enterprises with cross-border data restrictions. These buyers are not usually short of AI ambition. They are short of operating [...]
📅 - ÆTHER Plans Strasbourg AI Gigafactory for EU Sovereignty - ÆTHER, a European AI infrastructure consortium, has submitted itself for the EU's next AI Gigafactory call, naming partners across energy, construction, cloud, semiconductors, HPC and AI. The group is pursuing two Strasbourg-area campuses that could start operating in 2027, with initial 42 MW capacity and a longer-range ambition beyond 400 MW if grids allow.
The project is less about one data center than a European answer to a fairly blunt question: can the region build AI infrastructure without depending almost entirely on U.S. cloud platforms, U.S. accelerators, U.S. capital and non-European operating layers?
ÆTHER says yes, or at least wants Brussels to believe the ingredients are [...]
📅 - Microsoft Warns: AI Will Drive More Windows Security Patches - Microsoft is preparing Windows customers for more frequent security updates as artificial intelligence accelerates vulnerability discovery across its operating system. In this blog post by Windows and Devices chief Pavan Davuluri, Microsoft said AI is finding flaws across more code, forcing engineering teams to compress detection, validation, and remediation cycles without weakening reliability or operational stability.
For enterprise IT departments, the message extends beyond another Windows security announcement. Microsoft is effectively resetting expectations around patch management. Monthly Patch Tuesday releases are unlikely to remain the practical ceiling for security remediation as [...]
