Xello and Kode Bezopasnosti Sign Technological Partnership to Integrate Equipment Emulation into Xello Deception Platform

Xello and Kode Bezopasnosti have concluded a technological partnership agreement aimed at strengthening protection against targeted attacks through enhanced deception capabilities.

Xello, a Russian developer of platforms for data and infrastructure protection, and Kode Bezopasnosti, a Russian developer of software and hardware information security tools, will work together to integrate equipment emulation into the Xello Deception platform.

The partnership will allow Xello Deception, the first domestic Distributed Deception Platform, to emulate hardware from Kode Bezopasnosti. This addition will make the false layer of IT assets more realistic and broaden scenarios for early identification of threats in real-world infrastructures.

Statements from company executives

"We carefully consider customer requests and develop Xello Deception with the specifics of actual infrastructures in mind. Cooperation with Kode Bezopasnosti will expand the platform's functionality and make the false layer even more plausible in organizations that use this vendor's solutions. The partnership also opens new opportunities for expertise exchange. Joint work by our teams will help improve the direction of proactive threat detection," noted Rustam Zakirov, head of the Xello Deception product.

"Deception technologies are becoming an increasingly sought-after tool in the arsenal of information security teams. Against the backdrop of growing targeted attacks, organizations need not only to strengthen the perimeter but also to promptly notice signs of an intruder's presence inside the infrastructure. The partnership with Xello is an opportunity to support the development of a promising direction on the Russian market and contribute to expanding practical scenarios for the use of cyber deception," emphasized Pavel Korostelev, head of strategic marketing at Kode Bezopasnosti.

Reviving Huawei SANEX9510: Expired Certificates, Zero-Byte Keystore and Lost '@' Symbol Fixed Without Database Restart

A three-day postmortem revealed seven independent failures across four TLS contours in a legacy Huawei SANEX9510 telecom OSS platform that had been offline for ten months. The issues included expired certificates, an empty 0-byte PKCS#12 keystore, a missing '@' character in an encrypted TrustStore password, incompatible PKCS#8 private key encryption formats, and connection leaks to Sybase IQ. All components were restored without rebooting servers, restarting the database, or resetting passwords. The engineer mapped every keystore reference across multiple property files to avoid breaking working segments while fixing others. A final table creation for missing DAS_DIRSIZE metadata resolved a month-old import failure unrelated to the certificate problems.

Russian Federal Tax Service Tests Scoring Model to Uncover Concealed Self-Employed Income

The Russian Federal Tax Service is piloting a new scoring system designed to detect self-employed individuals who attempt to hide revenue by improperly canceling receipts in the Moy Nalog application. The model analyzes patterns such as systematic cancellations over specific periods and instances where checks are annulled by partner platforms or banks. Vladimir Maltsev, head of the operational control department at the Federal Tax Service, confirmed that the system is already being tested in several regions. Over the first nine months of 2026, authorities imposed penalties on approximately 3,000 self-employed taxpayers for unlawful receipt cancellations, resulting in fines totaling around 300 million rubles. The approach mirrors risk-assessment techniques long used by banks and focuses not only on incoming funds but also on how users manage recorded transactions. Full details of the scoring parameters and their weighting remain undisclosed to prevent circumvention.
