Linux security is built for environments where resilience matters. From vulnerability management to long-term maintenance, securing open source at enterprise scale requires a robust approach across the software lifecycle. Robustness comes from how those practices work together and hold up over time. What’s new in security for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS? → ubuntu.com/blog/ubuntu-26-04…

Curation plays an important role in enterprise Linux security. Knowing what enters your environment, how it's maintained and what you can rely on over time helps manage open source securely at scale. Understanding these considerations helps inform a deliberate approach to Linux security. What’s new in security for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS? → bit.ly/3V9PNGm

Ubuntu 26.10 official desktop wallpapers are here! 🧡 Our undersea artist, Marcus Haslam, has captured both the scale and elegance of the #StonkingStingray. In this own words: “For Stonking Stingray, my goal was to capture the stingray’s grace and elegance. I refined the shape to more closely resemble the actual animal, with wide fins sweeping gracefully into the body and a long tail that creates a natural sense of movement in the design." See the Stonking Stingray in a variety of colors, shapes, and sizes: ubuntu.com/blog/grace-on-the…

Linux security benefits from transparency. Open source makes code available for scrutiny, allowing vulnerabilities to be identified, understood and addressed. At enterprise scale, that transparency plays an important role in how Linux security is managed. What’s new in security for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS? → bit.ly/3V9PNGm

How do you monitor wildlife in places where infrastructure is limited? Some of the world's most valuable biodiversity data comes from remote, hard-to-reach locations, where researchers can't rely on traditional connectivity or computing. This is what the Open Science Conservation Fund is working to solve with Trapper, an open source platform that helps researchers analyze camera trap data closer to where it's collected. This demo, running on Ubuntu and Canonical Kubernetes, uses NextComputing’s fly-away kit - a portable edge computing system that can be carried into remote locations and deployed wherever it's needed, making it easier to turn observations into knowledge that the global scientific community can build on. #OpenSource #Ubuntu #Kubernetes

Every space mission begins long before launch day. Ideas become spacecraft. Thousands of decisions are made before a single engine ignites. The European Space Agency (ESA) knows what that journey looks like. As the agency prepares to increase the missions it supports by 2030, it is laying the groundwork for decades of future exploration. Working with Canonical, ESA is building a common platform for mission operations based on open source. Kubernetes, Ceph, PostgreSQL, and Kafka form ESA’s infrastructure foundation.

Open source is everywhere in modern IT. But the way organizations manage open source software supply chains is still often fragmented. @Canonical’s new research report, "The open source chain of trust," surveyed 500 DevOps professionals to understand where enterprises are making progress – and where blockers remain. The findings show a clear shift toward verifiable provenance, automated security workflows, and stronger cross-team collaboration. Read the report to learn how organizations can build a more trusted foundation for open source security: canonical.com/blog/open-sour… #OpenSource #CyberSecurity #DevOps
