13.4.2021 15:00:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Auth0, the identity platform for application teams, today announced that Lucy McGrath has been appointed as the company’s first Vice President of Privacy. McGrath is an international data privacy lawyer and will be responsible for enabling Auth0 and its customers to continue to solve dynamic privacy challenges and protect the users and other humans impacted by their work.
McGrath has 20 years of diverse data privacy experience working with Fortune 500 brands, including Thermo Fisher Scientific, Promontory Financial Group (an IBM Company), NBCUniversal, Salesforce, and TJX Europe. As Auth0’s VP of Privacy, she will lead global data privacy programs, further embed privacy-by-design principles into Auth0’s products and processes, and continue to shape a culture of privacy for the company and its customers. McGrath holds degrees in science and law with an LLM in information law and data protection, and is based in London.
“Identity management and privacy are without a doubt intertwined, because identity is about people,” said Eugenio Pace, CEO and co-founder of Auth0. “Lucy’s deep privacy expertise and ethos of putting the human at the core of everything she does is a huge asset to Auth0 and our customers who are navigating the complex global data privacy landscape.”
According to Cisco’s 2021 Data Privacy Benchmark Study, sentiment toward privacy laws is overwhelmingly positive, and investing in privacy makes companies more innovative and attractive among consumers. McGrath will help reinforce the link between privacy and identity management, and empower Auth0 customers to innovate in compliance with existing and emerging global regulations such as GDPR, CCPA and U.S. state privacy laws, Brazil’s LGPD, and Japan's APPI.
“It was clear from Auth0’s values that the company cares about human beings—which is what drew me to this role. The opportunity to connect with and support an increasing number of customers across diverse sectors and regions is very exciting,” said McGrath. “Privacy is dynamic, and a big part of my role is enablement for our employees and customers to manage risk and respond to the pace of change. I’m lucky to be working with an innovative, important technology, while preserving the dignity and respect of the employees, customers, and partners who are a part of Auth0.”

EZO Reaches Financial Close on €150 Million Senior Debt Facility14.10.2026 14:21:00 EEST | Press release
EZO has reached financial close on a €150 million investment-grade, non-recourse, senior debt facility. The funding will finance the design, installation, operation and maintenance of over 3,000 charge points, representing over 100,000 kWs of capacity, across the UK and Ireland under mostly long-term public sector “PPP-like” concessions with an attractive risk allocation between the public and private sector that will significantly advance EV infrastructure delivery, on time and to budget. These charge points are estimated to generate well in excess of £1 billion in electricity sales over the next 20 years, a portion of which will be shared with the public sector while, at the end of the concession, the chargers will revert back to the public sector. Headquartered in Ireland, EZO has expanded rapidly into the mainland UK, which by 2027 will become its primary EV charging market. The company is building the capital base, technology and operational capability required to deliver reliable

High-Capacity DDoS Attacks Surge 1,286% in 1H 2026 According to NETSCOUT Threat Intelligence Research14.10.2026 13:05:00 EEST | Press release
NETSCOUT® SYSTEMS, INC. (NASDAQ: NTCT) released its first half 2026 Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Threat Intelligence Report, revealing a significant shift in how attacks are launched and sourced. With more than 9.1 million DDoS attacks recorded globally by NETSCOUT between January and June 2026, the report highlights that DDoS risk is growing along three axes: the volume of traffic that must be inspected, the number of places where mitigation must be deployed, and the share of attacks that disrupt service without ever saturating a link. “The 1,286% rise in attacks clearing 1Tbps or 1Gpps means high-capacity events are no longer anomalies; they are routine,” stated Hardik Modi, VP Engineering, DDoS Solutions, and ASERT Threat Intelligence Team, NETSCOUT. “With the proliferation of residential proxies and short, rate-based attacks from DDoS-for-hire platforms, traditional coarse network controls are insufficient.
