Is digital sovereignty illusory without open source and a trusted supply chain?
May 29, 2026, 12:00 am
For a Chief Information Officer (CIO) or VP of Infrastructure, the term "digital sovereignty" often arrives as a regulatory burden to support a collection of acronyms like DORA (the EU Digital Operational Resilience Act), NIS2 (the updated Network and Information Security Directive), and PDPA (the Personal Data Protection Act) that require more checklists and audits. This begs the question, is viewing sovereignty through a purely legal lens a strategic mistake? Red Hat’s point of view has just been published in our recently released article, Red Hat Strategic Approach to Compliance, Sovereig
10 essential reads to optimize performance, security, and ROI in the AI era
May 29, 2026, 12:00 am
As enterprise IT organizations push deeper into operationalizing AI, the conversation has shifted from theoretical capability to hard execution metrics. Whether your team is talking with customers about scaling large language models (LLMs) on restricted local hardware, navigating the real-world performance numbers of distributed inference, or shielding proprietary model weights, the underlying goal remains the same: building a predictable, highly security-focused foundation that returns clear business value. This month’s roundup brings you the critical architecture analyses, benchmark realit
7 features of Red Hat Identity Management you need to know for the modern enterprise
May 28, 2026, 12:00 am
In the era of hyper-distributed systems where AI agents traverse our networks, and hybrid clouds stretch from the edge to the core, the "who" and "what" of infrastructure access are more critical than ever. Managing identities across thousands of nodes is a vital administrative task in optimizing your infrastructure's security posture. To assist with this, Red Hat Identity Management (IdM) can serve as a comprehensive domain controller for your Linux environment. If you're still managing local /etc/passwd files, or struggling with complex cross-realm Kerberos trusts manually, then it's time to
Advancing post-quantum capabilities of SSH in Red Hat Enterprise Linux
May 28, 2026, 12:00 am
The post-quantum cryptography (PQC) transition is well underway in Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). In May 2025, RHEL 10 delivered post-quantum key exchange algorithms in three major cryptography libraries (OpenSSL, GnuTLS, and NSS), making post-quantum key exchange usable in TLS 1.3 connections. RHEL 10.1 followed, setting the new key exchange algorithms as default in TLS, and introducing post-quantum signatures for RPM packages.The secure shell (SSH) protocol was not left behind. RHEL 10 shipped with OpenSSH 9.9, supporting two hybrid post-quantum key exchange methods: sntrup761x25519-sha512
4 reasons to start using image mode for Red Hat Enterprise Linux right now
May 28, 2026, 12:00 am
Nearly two years ago, we launched image mode for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) to give customers a simpler way to deploy the foundation of their IT enterprise. Since then, I’ve heard users who have adopted image mode describe it as a lifestyle change. There's a fundamental shift in thinking from package-based management to container-native, image-based management. And let's face it, lifestyle changes can be difficult. But the benefits—technical and personal—are real.Image mode makes some of IT’s most tedious processes simpler. That means more predictable operations for the enterprise
