Sekurak has announced its Black Week Early Access initiative, allowing participants to secure the best available discounts on IT security trainings one week ahead of the public sale.

The public Black Week promotion is set to begin on November 23, 2026. To give interested professionals and organizations more time to evaluate options without time pressure, Sekurak is opening Early Access registration starting November 16.

By joining the Early Access list, participants receive several concrete advantages:

  • Discounts of up to 85 percent on ITsec courses, lower than those available during the open Black Week period.
  • Seven additional days to review the full training catalog and arrange funding before the general promotion starts.
  • Priority registration for courses that have limited seat availability.

The offer is also directed at HR departments and training managers who face year-end budget constraints. Funds not spent by the close of the fiscal period typically cannot be rolled over, creating pressure to make last-minute decisions. Early Access allows these teams to plan training investments in advance while obtaining deeper discounts.

Registration is available through the dedicated sign-up page provided by Sekurak. The company states that the program helps both individuals and organizations invest in practical skills at the most favorable prices while avoiding the rush associated with standard seasonal promotions.

Microsoft Integrates Native Backup and Recovery into Entra ID

Microsoft released a preview of an integrated backup and recovery service for Microsoft Entra ID in March 2026. The new Microsoft Entra Backup and Recovery feature automatically creates daily immutable snapshots of critical directory objects and retains the last five restore points directly inside the Microsoft Entra Admin Center. Snapshots are protected even against accounts holding the highest privileges, closing a long-standing gap that administrators previously addressed with custom Microsoft Graph scripts or third-party tools. The service eliminates the need for additional infrastructure by embedding backup and restore capabilities natively into the Entra Admin Center. Because the product remains in preview, Microsoft may still adjust menu labels and workflow details before general availability. The feature provides both differential reporting and one-click restoration options for protected identity objects.

Biomemory Launches Early Access for DNA Shield DNA-Based Offline Data Protection Service

French company Biomemory has introduced DNA Shield, its first commercial managed service that stores highly critical data in synthetic DNA for long-term offline retention. The offering targets organizations seeking protection against cyber attacks, infrastructure changes, regulatory audits, AI advances, and quantum computing threats. Data undergoes encryption and encoding into synthetic DNA before being placed in managed offline storage, with recovery available only through a controlled, non-self-service process. Initial use cases include cryptographic key continuity, industrial intellectual property preservation, regulated integrity records, and sovereign golden records. The launch follows Biomemory’s March 2026 acquisition of Catalog Technologies assets in Boston and the July 2026 appointment of Laurent Guengant as CEO. DNA Shield is currently available through an Early Access Program as the first step in the company’s longer-term Molecular IT roadmap, which plans general data storage capabilities from 2029 onward.

Using rpcclient from the Samba Suite to Assess and Secure Active Directory Environments

The command-line tool rpcclient, part of the Samba suite, enables direct MS-RPC access to Windows systems from Linux. It supports enumeration of domain accounts, shares, and privileges, as well as write operations against SAM and LSA. Originally developed to test Samba's MS-RPC implementation, the utility has become a standard component in the toolkits of pentesters, auditors, and administrators working with Active Directory. From a Linux environment, rpcclient provides access to multiple named pipes including SAM, LSA, NETLOGON, SRVSVC, and SPOOLSS without requiring graphical interfaces. The article demonstrates practical usage through concrete commands against domain controllers and organizes them by common administrative and security-assessment scenarios. This approach allows security teams to perform detailed inventory and privilege analysis directly from the command line.
