Delighted to receive today a photo of my late partner Heather Loney at a special wedding on the Amalfi Coast in Italy in July 2022. Heather was discreet and did not like her photo taken. I am so happy someone took this of her unaware. I miss my buddy 😘

Zero trust, SASE, and quantum-safe design are reshaping networks. Security is no longer bolted on – it must be embedded, adaptive, and future-proof
