The post Cardano’s EMURGO Steps Down From Pentad Governance After $2.4M Hack appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Cardano News Cardano (ADA) came under renewed pressure after EMURGO, one of the network’s three founding entities, formally stepped down from the Pentad — the cooperative body that steers Cardano’s strategic governance. The token slipped roughly 4% to 5% over 24 hours as the news circulated. EMURGO confirmed on social media that it had notified the other Pentad members — Input Output Global, the Cardano Foundation, Intersect and the Midnight Foundation — of its departure. The company tied the decision directly to the SecondFi security breach, saying it needed to redirect resources toward compensating affected users rather than splitting attention across governance duties it could no longer prioritise. The breach at the heart of the exit was substantial. On-chain data indicates the SecondFi exploit drained roughly $2.4 million and hit hundreds of wallet holders across the ec

GitHub continues to be a scintillating target for attackers because it sits in the middle of the software supply chain and gives threat actors three things they crave: source code, secrets, and automated pipelines to run amok in. Datadog Security Research has been tracking what it calls a “sustained pattern” of GitHub API abuse over the past several months that seeks to map organizations and their members. While individually these requests are “unremarkable,” they become dangerous when they move across environments for weeks at a time, and, worse, progress to full-out cloning. The biggest challenge is that they blend into normal API usage patterns. GitHub has been a goldmine for criminals looking to breach organizations because many development lifecycles are insecure, said David Shipley of Beauceron Security. Typically, threat actors are after API keys and cloud secrets. “Now with everyone being pushed to do more, faster, with AI agents coding, the treasure trove of secrets is likely

The post When Employees Start Working For The Metrics Instead Of The Mission appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. When Employees Start Working For The Metric Instead Of The Mission getty I never loved taking statistics courses in school, and yet somehow that education influenced me more than I ever expected. I now find myself trying to quantify things I never used to think about. There is tremendous value in being able to predict performance, and many of the tools organizations use help leaders improve results. They rely on performance metrics to evaluate everything from customer satisfaction to productivity. Used well, those metrics help identify problems, reveal opportunities, and support better decisions. Used poorly, they can produce exactly the opposite of what leaders intended. The moment employees understand how their performance will be measured, many begin adjusting their behavior to improve the metric rather than the outcome the metric was designed to represent. I saw that of

The post EMURGO Cardano Pentad Withdrawal Signals Governance Shift appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. One of Cardano’s founding organizations is stepping back from the ecosystem’s most prominent governance coalition — not because of a strategic shift, but because of a security failure that drained millions of dollars from hundreds of users. EMURGO’s withdrawal from Cardano’s Pentad governance group is a direct consequence of last month’s exploit on the SecondFi wallet, a product EMURGO itself built and launched. Key takeaways EMURGO is stepping down from Cardano’s Pentad governance group to focus on recovering user funds lost in the SecondFi wallet exploit. The exploit drained approximately 16 million ADA — worth about $2.4 million at the time — from 374 wallets. EMURGO expects to reimburse affected users within two weeks through a structured recovery plan. Pentad, formed earlier this year, groups Input Output Global, the Cardano Foundation, Intersect, the Midnight Foundation, and EM
