At first glance, the proposed deal makes little sense. The Internet Society is trying to sell the non-profit Public Interest Registry (PIR), the registry for the “.org” top-level domain (TLD), to the new private-equity firm Ethos Capital for $1.135 billion.

Open source revolutized technology and networking but it’s done almost nothing in cellular technology. That’s because Boris Renski, co-founder of OpenStack and Kubernetes power Mirantis, explained, “cellular wireless is an oligopoly black box primarily due to historic government regulation.” But, now that the FCC has opened up the 3.5 GHz Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) band, there’s room for new open-source based companies to offer 4G LTE and eventually 5G voice and data. Renski will be one of its pioneers.

Open-source software makes up 80% to 90% of all software. Much of that is built on deeply buried open-source components. And, far too often, your own developers have placed passwords and secrets in that code. That’s not an exaggeration. According to the SANS 2019 Cloud Security Survey, “Last year 50% of all breaches were traced to misuse of credentials, which frequently are found in code.” That’s where the just launched BluBracket comes in.
