Their approach offers useful insights for any system built on retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).
By Sergio De SimoneAWS Introduces Nested Virtualization on EC2 Instances

By Renato LosioStandardizing Post-Quantum IPsec: Cloudflare Adopts Hybrid ML-KEM to Replace Ciphersuite Bloat
Cloudflare has extended hybrid post-quantum encryption to IPsec and WAN traffic, standardizing its SASE stack ahead of the NIST 2030 deadline. By adopting a streamlined ML-KEM key exchange, the move addresses long-standing "ciphersuite bloat" in quantum-resistant IPsec. The update aims to neutralize "harvest now, decrypt later" threats without requiring specialized hardware upgrades.
