                                    A newly revealed exploit called “YellowKey” may let attackers bypass BitLocker encryption on Windows 11 and Windows Server systems using only a USB stick and a simple reboot trick. The researcher who disclosed it says the flaw is so severe, and so oddly specific to newer Windows versions, that they suspect it could be an intentional backdoor. Windows 10 does not appear to be affected.

                                              Privacy is becoming one of the most important conversations in modern B2B SaaS.

                                              For years, many companies treated privacy mainly as compliance. But with the rise of AI, enterprise buyers are paying much closer attention to trust, transparency, and responsible data handling.

                                              I recently wrote about why privacy may evolve into a long-term competitive advantage for SaaS companies in the AI era:

The video shows dark blue futuristic visuals of cybersecurity dashboards, SaaS platforms, privacy settings, and digital trust symbols. On-screen text explains that privacy is no longer just compliance, but a competitive advantage. It highlights how customers notice how companies handle data, how privacy influences trust and buying decisions, and how trust may become the next SaaS moat. The video ends with a call to read the full article ‘Privacy as a Brand Asset in B2B SaaS: Competitive Edge’ by Ashish Varghese Thomas. Background visuals feature glowing blue interfaces, cloud SaaS graphics, and secure digital branding.
