DORA reaches far beyond banks. This guide maps the operational-resilience work for non-bank financial entities and their ICT suppliers: ICT risk management, the third-party register, contract clauses, and resilience testing under Regulation (EU) 2022/2554.
A hub for securing production AI in 2026: the LLM, prompt injection, retrieval, agents, the AI supply chain, governance and observability, with links to the deep engineering on each layer.
A working 2026 threat model for AI agents in production, plus the controls that contain them: tool and token scoping, blast-radius limits, prompt injection via tools, human-in-the-loop, and least privilege.
Public reporting suggests nearly half of AI-generated code ships with an OWASP Top 10 weakness. Here is a practical playbook to audit, remediate by vulnerability class, and add diff-aware CI guardrails to vibe-coded repositories.
CodeRabbit, SonarQube, and Sourcery solve different slices of review. We compare them for EU engineering teams, explain why codebase context beats diff context, and show how to design a merge gate when AI writes half the PRs.
A practical framework for deciding when a sub-10B model like Phi, Gemma, or Qwen beats a frontier API, covering cost, latency, privacy, fine-tuning, and the hybrid router pattern that sends high-volume traffic to cheaper models.
A hands-on guide to running Gemma 3 and Qwen2.5 on your own EU infrastructure: model licences, GPU sizing, quantization, vLLM serving, proving residency to auditors, and when self-hosting actually beats a managed API.
Inference is roughly 80% of production AI spend, and most of it is avoidable. A practical FinOps playbook: measure cost per token, batch with vLLM, cache and route, quantize, and time your self-host break-even.
A demo MCP server exposes tools on a laptop; a production one adds identity, audit, and blast-radius control. Here are the auth, gateway, and audit patterns that make an enterprise MCP server safe to ship.
EU data residency alone does not defeat the US CLOUD Act. Here is a hyperscaler-free reference architecture, EU providers, HYOK keys, confidential computing, and nearshore Tunisian operations, that keeps data and control under EU jurisdiction.
The proposed EU Cloud and AI Development Act sorts cloud into four sovereignty tiers. Learn what each tier means, which one your stack actually sits at, and how to climb without a rebuild, with the proposal still in flux.
DFIR combines digital forensics and incident response to contain breaches and prove what happened. This field guide maps the modern IR lifecycle across endpoint and cloud, and routes you to deep dives for triage, forensics, and recovery.
