The compliance illusion: Why your company might be at risk despite passing audits

For many CISOs, compliance can feel like a necessary evil and a false sense of security. While frameworks like ISO 27001, SOC 2, and PCI DSS offer structured guidelines, they don’t automatically equate to strong cybersecurity. The challenge? Many organizations focus on checking the compliance box rather than ensuring their controls are effective. The problem isn’t compliance itself, it’s the mindset. Too often, security teams scramble to pass an audit, only to return to business … More → The post The compliance illusion: Why your company might be at risk despite passing audits appeared first on Help Net Security.

Mesoporous silicon: Semiconductor with new talents

Silicon is the best-known semiconductor material. However, controlled nanostructuring drastically alters the material’s properties. Using a specially developed etching apparatus, a team has now produced mesoporous silicon layers with countless tiny pores and investigated their electrical and thermal conductivity. For the first time, the researchers elucidated the electronic transport mechanism in this mesoporous silicon. The material has great potential for applications and could also be used to thermally insulate qubits for quantum computers.
