RuBackup 2.9.0 Receives Official Compatibility Certificate with BAUM-Inform Storage Systems
RuBackup version 2.9.0 has successfully completed compatibility testing with storage systems manufactured by BAUM-Inform. The results have been formalized with an official certificate issued by the companies involved.
The testing focused on the interaction between RuBackup and BAUM-Inform equipment during backup and data recovery procedures. All checks were conducted according to a pre-approved program and methodology developed by the participating organizations.
BAUM-Inform storage systems are intended for data storage and processing within corporate infrastructures. RuBackup, developed by the company of the same name that belongs to Group Astra, is used to create backups and restore information after failures or incidents.
The solution supports a wide range of environments, including physical servers, end-user workstations, virtualization platforms, mail systems, databases, and domain infrastructure components.
Confirmed compatibility means that the two products can be deployed together in a single infrastructure without requiring customers to perform their own integration testing. This factor is especially relevant when building technology stacks based entirely on Russian solutions, where the number of verified combinations remains limited compared with the total number of available products.
Representatives of BAUM-Inform noted that the completed testing helps lower risks associated with the implementation and ongoing operation of the combined solution. RuBackup developers described the integration as an important step in strengthening the Russian ecosystem of data storage and protection technologies.
Customers now have an additional officially validated option: data is stored on BAUM-Inform systems, backups are created by RuBackup, and the interoperability of the two products has already been verified prior to installation in the data center.

VK WorkSpace Adds Guest Access Without Accounts, Password Protection, Polls, and File Uploads Up to 30 MB
VK Tech has updated the cloud version of its VK WorkSpace Board to allow external participants such as clients, contractors, and other guests to join collaborative boards without creating an account. Access can be protected by a password set by the owner, who can also assign specific permissions including view-only, commenting, or full editing rights while restricting guests from creating new boards or viewing version history. Domain administrators can enforce mandatory password protection across all boards that permit guest access. Additional features include built-in polls with automatic result counting, support for uploading files up to 30 MB that are scanned by antivirus software, a mini-map for navigating large projects, and export options in SVG, PNG, JPG, PDF, and CSV formats. The service also received an English-language interface, addressing key use cases involving external collaboration as highlighted by VK Tech executive Petr Shcheglov.
Solar SIEM 2026.2 Adds Full Solar JSOC Detection Library, TI Feeds Support, Enhanced AI Agent and Multi-Tenancy
GC Solar has released Solar SIEM 2026.2, which now includes the complete detection rule library developed by Solar JSOC over 14 years of monitoring approximately 300 customer infrastructures. The update eliminates the need for organizations to spend months building custom rule sets by providing ready-made detection scenarios that identify sophisticated attacks from the earliest implementation stages. In 2025, Solar JSOC recorded 1.16 million security events after false-positive filtering and confirmed more than 33,000 incidents, with malware accounting for 36 percent and unauthorized access attempts for 23 percent. The product also gained native support for TI Feeds, allowing automatic ingestion and correlation of indicators of compromise from Solar 4RAYS and customer-owned sources. The built-in AI agent has been significantly expanded so it can now independently query raw event data, perform deeper analysis, and recommend next steps, reducing manual workload for analysts. Multi-tenancy capabilities enable multiple organizations to share a single SIEM instance while keeping their event streams fully separated, targeting holdings, MSSP providers, and large enterprises with numerous divisions. More than 40 companies of various sizes participated in the pilot program.
Engineers Create HemaDyne Perfusion System to Replicate Real Human Blood Flow on Lab-on-a-Chip Devices, Aiding Personalized Medicine and Mars Missions
Researchers have developed an automated perfusion system called HemaDyne that accurately reproduces patient-specific blood flow patterns, including rapid pressure changes occurring within 50 milliseconds, inside microfluidic lab-on-a-chip devices. The technology overcomes previous limitations of laboratory pumps that could not match the pulsatile nature of blood circulation generated by the human heart, which produces multiple short impulses and waves of varying duration. By converting real patient examination data into G-code commands that control a foldable bellows-style chamber inspired by accordions and plastic glue bottles, the system delivers precise, individualized hemodynamic conditions to endothelial cells. This enables detailed study of how mechanical forces from blood flow influence vascular diseases, aging, and microgravity effects without relying on animal testing. The compact, long-term stable pump supports experiments lasting months and can be integrated with various organ models. NASA has backed the project to investigate cardiovascular changes during extended spaceflights, positioning these microphysiological systems as tools for preparing crewed missions to Mars where full clinical trials are impossible.
AI-Designed NovoTags Enable Real-Time Fluorescent Labeling of Mitochondria and Other Cellular Structures in Living Cells
Researchers have developed NovoTags, a new class of small artificial proteins created from scratch using AI systems to bind specific Janelia Fluor dyes and make targeted molecules glow brightly under microscopes. The proteins were designed with RFdiffusion for shape generation, LigandMPNN for amino acid sequences, and validated by AlphaFold and RoseTTAFold before lab synthesis and testing. Three independent tags were created for green, orange, and far-red spectra, allowing genetic attachment to proteins of interest such as those in endosomes, mitochondria, and chromatin. Unlike traditional fluorescent proteins, NovoTags do not glow on their own but form a pocket that holds the dye and alters its optical properties for high brightness and super-resolution imaging including STED microscopy. The team also introduced NovoSplit, a split version that acts as both a fluorescent label and molecular glue to control protein interactions on demand. Future plans include combining the tags with cryo-electron tomography and expanding the palette to distinguish up to 30 proteins simultaneously using color and fluorescence lifetime. All sequences and compatible dyes have been made openly available to the scientific community, with results published in Science.
