rf IDEAS, a leading manufacturer of credential readers for authentication and logical access, is proud to announce that it is the recipient of the 2021 HP Partner Award for Partner Agility.
Presented at the virtually held HP Developer Partner Conference 2021, this award recognizes rf IDEAS for its role in helping HP land a successful worldwide deployment deal, featuring readers with Bluetooth® Low Energy technology, for its development agility, and for managing the changes and challenges over the past year. “This award represents the great relationship we have built with HP,” said David Cottingham, president of rf IDEAS. “We were able to take secure authentication to the next level by deploying a solution that combines mobile credentials and secure physical employee badges. Through a difficult year, we have been able to execute on tough delivery timelines and offer continued support to HP and their customers long after the product leaves our warehouse.”
For the last 13 years, rf IDEAS and HP partnered together to provide leading authentication technology for HP’s Secure Print solutions for many top enterprise companies in multiple verticals around the world. During this time, rf IDEAS has built a robust supply chain to support HP in multiple routes to market such as direct MPS or indirect channel through worldwide distributors.
“The pandemic caused many new technical and logistical hurdles to overcome to deliver a highly complex and customized solution. Being able to adapt to an ever-changing environment in a positive, productive way requires real partnership, flexibility and a commitment to win,” said Paul Birkett, leader of HP’s Commercial Software Solutions for its print business. “rf IDEAS responsiveness to HP’s rapidly evolving customer needs is what made them stand out. rf IDEAS was instrumental in our work with this critical customer, and without the work of this partner, we would not have won a global multimillion-dollar Managed Print Services Deal.”
This is the fifth time HP has awarded to rf IDEAS for various achievements including Customer Focus in 2020, Partner Sales Excellence in 2017, Partner Collaboration in Excellence in 2016 and Partner in Excellence in 2014.

Klarna Card reaches 5 million active customers19.3.2026 16:31:00 EET | Press release
Klarna, the global digital bank and payments provider, today announced that the Klarna Card has reached 5 million active customers globally, underscoring rapid adoption as consumers shift towards new forms of payment which provide more control over day-to-day money management. The card draws from the customer's own funds for everyday spending, with the option to spread the cost of a specific purchase, like a large appliance or a flight, when it makes sense to do so. The result is a card that offers genuine spending control without the long-term debt obligations that come with traditional credit cards. The card’s growth is reinforced by Klarna’s membership program. The program offers premium perks such as airport lounge access, travel insurance, and lifestyle subscriptions — without requiring users to take on debt, meet spending thresholds, or revolve balances. By separating everyday spending from rewards, Klarna is challenging the strings-attached model legacy banks have long relied on

Armis, the cyber exposure management & security company, is warning that the rapid enterprise adoption of AI-native development is outpacing critical security safeguards, leaving organizations exposed to systemic vulnerabilities. New research from Armis Labs’ Trusted Vibing Benchmark Report, which evaluates 18 leading generative AI models across 31 test scenarios, reveals a 100% failure rate in generating secure code. These vulnerabilities are most prevalent in high-risk areas like memory buffer overflows, design file uploads and authentication systems. Therefore, organizations should immediately implement AI-native application security controls to reduce risk. “The era of vibe coding is here, but speed should not come at the cost of security,” said Nadir Izrael, CTO and Co-Founder of Armis. “Our research finds that the worst offenders are the same ones selling security solutions for the very vulnerabilities their models create.
