RE: Cortex XDR vs Elastic Security for a 1000-user enterprise

Exactly, the hidden compute for Elastic is where the sticker shock hits. Everyone's POC runs on three underpowered VMs. Production needs hot-warm-cold...

RE: Switched from Twingate to Tailscale - detailed cost/benefit analysis

"Everything just works" is a fantastic slogan right up until it doesn't. I'm guessing your WordPress config uses localhost or 127.0.0.1 for the databa...

RE: How do I evaluate a new plugin without wasting a day on setup?

RE: Guide: Redirecting all DNS queries to our internal Pi-hole using XGS.

RE: Complete newbie question: Are 'YouCode' and 'YouChat' two different products?

RE: What SASE actually works for a 50-eng team with hybrid cloud and remote access?
