The Heisenberg Horror: Why Debugging Tools Make Bugs Disappear
Production bugs that vanish when you try to debug them. Learn why traditional debugging tools change what they observe and how to catch Heisenbugs with kernel-level visibility.
Built to Integrate: Why Qpoint's Modular Architecture Matters
Most security vendors force you into all-or-nothing adoption. Learn why Qpoint's modular architecture (QTap, QPlane, QScan) gives you kernel-level visibility with complete flexibility over data storage, deployment, and integration.
Are You Watching What's Leaving Your Network?
Business units are racing to integrate AI, creating a massive encrypted blind spot in outbound API calls. Learn how to gain visibility into what data is being sent to external AI services without disrupting your applications.
The Hidden Complexity of External Dependencies - How Qpoint Solves a Cloud-scale Problem
Your system is only as reliable as its weakest dependency. Learn how external service failures impact cloud-scale systems and how Qpoint provides immediate visibility into third-party dependencies without code changes.
The CISO's Checklist - What Your Current Tools Can't Tell You
As a CISO, you've invested heavily in security tools. Yet when the board asks about your organization's true risk exposure, you still face uncomfortable silence around critical questions. The problem lies in what encryption hides from your existing security stack.
The M&A Due Diligence Black Box: Why Technical DD Takes Weeks (And How to Get It Done in Days)
Every CISO that's ever gone through an acquisition knows the technical due diligence black hole. Learn how kernel-level visibility can transform weeks-long technical DD into a days-long observational exercise.
How eBPF-Based Egress Monitoring Would Have Caught the Shai-Hulud npm Worm in Real-Time
September 2025 marked a watershed moment for supply chain security when the Shai-Hulud worm became the first self-replicating malware to propagate through the npm ecosystem. This post examines how Qpoint's eBPF-based data-in-motion security would have detected this attack at the moment of compromise.
The Encryption Paradox
Every security incident post-mortem reveals the same pattern: the evidence was there in the network traffic all along. The warning signs existed, but they were hidden beneath layers of encryption and distributed across dozens of services.
Why Running Qtap in Production is Safe - A Deep Dive into eBPF and Privilege Boundaries
Let's address the elephant in the room. After recent high-profile kernel agent failures that took down millions of systems worldwide, your security and operations teams are rightfully cautious about anything that touches the kernel. When we tell you that Qtap needs elevated privileges and deploys eBPF programs into kernel space, we understand the skepticism.
The eBPF Verifier - How Linux Safely Runs User Code in Kernel Space
Understanding how the Linux kernel can safely run user-supplied programs without risking system stability through eBPF's mathematical verification system.
The Impossible Proxy - An Egress Journey
We just need all external traffic to go through an egress proxy. That's how it always starts. A seemingly simple security requirement that sounds reasonable in the boardroom. The CISO nods. The compliance team is satisfied. The architecture review board approves. And then, someone has to actually build it.
