The DevCentral MVPs for 2022 have just been announced and FullProxy’s Technical Manager Donald Ross is on the list!  DevCentral is F5’s community-led user support forum, MVPs are awarded following nominations from subscribers and fellow users. What an amazing accolade for a talented cyber security professional.

Leslie Hubertus, DevCentral’s Community Manager, explains “The DevCentral MVP Award is given annually to the outstanding group of individuals – the experts in the technical F5 user community who go out of their way to engage with the user community. The award is our way of recognizing their significant contributions because while all of our users collectively make DevCentral one of the top community sites around and a valuable resource for everyone, MVPs regularly go above and beyond in assisting fellow F5 users.”

MVPs get a special badge on their profile for the calendar year of their cohort, so users can know at a glance who they are. This year’s MVPs will also receive a glass award, certificate, exclusive thank-you gifts, and invitations to exclusive webinars and behind-the-scenes looks at things like roadmaps, new product sneak previews, and innovative concepts in development.

So if you are looking for expert F5 advice from consultants with their fingers on the pulse, get in touch today to see how Donald and his team can help.

Certificate management is a critical part of an organisation’s cyber security that cannot be ignored. Certificates are vital for protecting data transmitted between websites and users. If not properly managed, data could be at significant risk. One certificate option that organisations often consider is wildcard certificates, which provide some benefits but also carry security risks.
Google's announcement to reduce the lifespan of Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificates from 398 days to 90 days continues to be a hot topic of discussion among information security professionals, especially those directly involved in replacing and updating certificates. It’s especially frustrating because – although mooted back in April of 2023 – there’s still no confirmed date for its implementation. Yet Chrome browsers account for just over 50% of all UK web traffic (Statista), so there’s no avoiding the impact that this will have.
Meet Donald, our experienced Technical Manager. In this blog post, he takes us through a quick demonstration of F5's Distributed Cloud, showcasing how effortlessly you can ensure maximum uptime and protection for your web applications.
