It's the first Saturday of May, which means Free Comic Book Day is here, and this year, even Tamagotchi is getting in on the fun. Bandai has released a limited edition comic for the event, and it sports the new moniker that's been fueling fan speculation for months: Tamagotchi Paradise. The comic will only be available in physical form, so if you want one, you'll have to take a trip to your local comic store to pick it up. You can find participating shops using the FCBD store locator.
Internet sleuths first spotted a trademark filing for Tamagotchi Paradise earlier this year, sparking theories about the company's plans for an upcoming device.

The last few years have seen an explosion of interest in Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA). The zero trust approach replaces the perimeter defense model with a "least privilege" framework where users authenticate to access specific data and applications, and their activities are continuously monitored.
ZTNA gained a boost in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, with more employees working remotely. The old perimeter defense model, exemplified by VPNs, provides a secured internet connection that gives remote users privileges as if they were on an internal private network. This doesn't match up with a zero trust mindset; and to make things worse, many organizations found that their infrastructure couldn't handle the traffic loads created by large numbers of remote workers connecting via VPN.
