Neutral Networks sells Mexican fibre neutrality before the last-mile bill

Superloop's NBN margin starts with wholesale access it does not control

FiberCorp prices no-contract fibre against a one-prefix network

01 SYSTEM SRL and the Price of Owning Network Reliability
01 SYSTEM SRL has an economic reason to own more of the network than a conventional IT reseller: every router, address block, fibre path and rack under its control gives it a better chance of fixing a customer's outage without waiting for someone else. That independence is…

ICANN made the DNSSEC root key rollover a public test of operational accountability
ICANN's first DNSSEC root key-signing-key rollover was not only a cryptographic maintenance event. It was a rare global exercise in changing a shared trust anchor while millions of recursive resolvers, public agencies, enterprises, software vendors, registries, ISPs and end users…

AlterTEL prices Polish local access through the routes it can actually repair
AlterTEL has the legal shape of a Polish telecom company, the public routing identifiers of a small internet operator and the commercial posture of a Warsaw technical-service shop. Those three facts make it more interesting than a simple local-provider listing. They also make it…

JBS made ransomware a food-supply continuity question
The 2021 JBS ransomware incident was not only a corporate extortion case. It was a short, sharp test of how a concentrated meat processor, public agencies, producers, workers, retailers and customers absorb uncertainty when plant operations depend on centralized digital trust.…

DCspine turns a first data-centre port into an on-demand circuit habit
DCspine matters because its strongest commercial claim is not just another fibre route across the Benelux. It is the habit that begins after a buyer has installed a port, learned the portal, and started treating data-centre, cloud, internet and redundancy links as repeatable…

Fornex sells hosting confidence after the server has already moved
For a workload owner, the cost of a hosting provider is never just the first invoice. It starts after files, domains, backups, DNS records and operating habits have crossed into the provider's control surface. Fornex Hosting S.L. competes in that second phase of the purchase: the…

Change Healthcare: how one missing identity control became a national continuity failure
The 2024 Change Healthcare attack was a criminal act, but its national consequences were not explained by ransomware alone. A legacy remote-access service without multifactor authentication, an unfinished post-acquisition control migration, privileged access to a broad technology…

LACNIC utilisation audits in the acquisition data room
