Binarly Expands Platform to Enable Post-Quantum Compliance Readiness
The all-new Binarly Transparency Platform v2.7 adds cryptographic reachability and PQC compliance features to enable forward-looking organizations to meet NIST standards and deadlines with confidence.
SANTA MONICA, Calif., January 30, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Binarly, a leader in firmware and software supply chain security, today announced the release of its flagship Binarly Transparency Platform v2.7, a major update that immediately enables corporate defenders to prepare for a mandatory transition to Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) standards.
As quantum computing advances, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has issued fresh guidance on Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), underscoring the urgency of PQC readiness amid deadlines and regulations.
Transitioning large enterprises to meet these new requirements is a lengthy, often complex process. The latest product update has been fitted with patented technologies to handle discovery, inventorying and assessment of cryptographic assets:
Cryptographic Keys: Ownership, algorithm identifier, format, and status (active or deprecated) accurately documented.
Certificates: Validity period, ownership, and algorithm used, captured and displayed in streamlined reports.
Algorithms: Accurate tracking and identification of algorithms in use, and assessment of their ability to resist quantum attacks.
Protocols (TLS, etc.): Inventory that includes version and implementation details to track any dependencies.
"Preparedness for PQC can't happen overnight," said Ryan Weekes, Chief Product Officer at Binarly. "Our platform helps you discover which assets need immediate attention while delivering the insights required to align with new regulations for post-quantum readiness."
By identifying outdated or insecure cryptography, enterprises can better manage their transition to post-quantum standards and avoid compliance gaps.
Key PQC-focused enhancements:
Cryptographic Reachability: Identify which cryptographic algorithms in a binary are actively used, so you can prioritize changes that truly matter.
PQC Compliance: Track NIST-approved post-quantum algorithms, pinpoint outdated cryptography, and plan targeted updates for quantum-safe security.
Enhanced CBOM and Reporting: Build a robust inventory of certificates, keys, and algorithms while generating streamlined reports for cross-team collaboration.
"Our new cryptographic reachability feature cuts through false positives to highlight exactly which algorithms are actively in use," said Alex Matrosov, CEO and Head of Research at Binarly. "Enterprises gain an actionable blueprint to modernize their cryptographic assets and stay ahead of regulatory mandates."
With v2.7, the Binarly Transparency Platform introduces key feature improvements, performance upgrades, and critical updates to better support software supply chain transparency, vulnerability remediation, and regulatory compliance.

Former rivals Baker Tilly and Moss Adams just merged as private equity reshapes accounting. Their CEOs explain why they did the deal.
Baker Tilly and Moss Adams have merged to create the sixth-largest advisory CPA firm in the US. "We just added a bunch of arrows into our quiver," Jeff Ferro, CEO of Baker Tilly, told Business Insider. The deal marks a major shift for the mid-market landscape, which is being heavily influenced by private equity. Baker Tilly and Moss Adams merged this week in a deal that marks another shake-up for mid-market consulting firms and emphasizes the role being played by private equity in US accounting. The two firms, which are both in the tier below the Big Four, have a combined annual revenue of over $3 billion. By joining forces, they've catapulted themselves above BDO, Grant Thornton US, and CLA to become the 6th largest accounting firm by revenue in the US. The move brings together 11,500 employees into one firm that will keep the Baker Tilly name and be an independent member firm in the Baker Tilly International network. In a joint interview, the two CEOs of the merged firms told Business Insider that the move is mutually strategic and will help them navigate the challenges facing the mid-market. "We just added a bunch of arrows into our quiver," said Jeff Ferro, CEO of Baker Tilly. The deal also offers an insight into how private equity is reshaping the industry in the US. In 2024, Baker Tilly sold a stake to the private investment groups Hellman & Friedman (H&F) and Valeas, in the second-largest deal in the sector at the time. Baker Tilly is now, thanks to the merger, the largest firm in the industry to be partly owned by private-equity investors. It's a trend that is redefining the culture and business model of traditional accounting firms. Firms have typically paid out profits to equity partners, who also get a vote on how they are run. Private equity offers an influx of capital to help firms evolve their technology and data, but requires firms to divest the control historically promised to partners, shaking up their culture. Ferro told BI that Baker Tilly's strategic plan had been to grow through acquisition, and was a key part of what H&F bought into when they signed the deal. H&F will also make a "meaningful additional strategic investment in the business" as part of this transaction. "Our chances of executing our strategy were good, and now I think they're great," said Ferro. Combining firms also created strategic advances in geographic reach — Moss Adams is West Coast-focused, while Baker Tilly mostly covers the East, central, and has some international clients. The two firms bring specific industry strengths to the table and different tools and service capabilities to offer clients, Ferro said. "I see us being a $6 billion revenue organization in five years," Ferro said, which would mean doubling their current combined revenues. "It's quite a win," agreed Eric Miles, the former CEO of Moss Adams, who will take over from Ferro as CEO of Baker Tilly when Ferro retires at the end of the year. The needs of the mid-market client base are changing, and they require more scale and breadth of services than they used to, he said. At the same time, the firms themselves are seeing increasing demand for true fixed costs like training and development, and AI. Those kinds of pressures require large organizations to scale to be competitive, he said. Neither firm had to do the merger, Miles said, "But we had this strategic lens on it, saying, 'how can we be stronger? What's going to be required to be a leading competitive firm in the future?'" "The partnership with Baker-Tilly helped us meet all those long-term strategic objectives, which helps us not only deal with these forces, but get out in front and lead in the market," Miles said.

An Inside Look At Disney's Affordable Housing Development In Florida
Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. If someone asked you to play a word association game using the term "Walt Disney World," your first response might be "Magic Kingdom" or maybe Mickey Mouse. It's a safe bet that "affordable housing" would be way down your list, but the economics of Florida's housing market have forced a paradigm shift. Florida living has become so expensive that Walt Disney World is building an affordable housing community for its employees in Florida. Florida used to be synonymous with affordable housing, but several factors have changed the Sunshine State's housing market. First, a post-COVID influx of new arrivals from Los Angeles and New York with deep pockets caused property prices to spike statewide. If that weren't enough, a home insurance rate crisis and high interest rates have made buying a home in Florida harder than ever before. Don't Miss: Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing — Invest Where It Hurts — And Help Millions Heal: The affordability issue is felt most acutely by workers at the middle to lower end of the wage spectrum. That's historically the economic demographic that staffs Walt Disney World and the company's other Florida attractions. Business Insider reports that despite paying its employees $15 per hour, they still have trouble keeping pace with rising rents and property values. Disney responded by teaming up with a real estate development company, the Michaels Organization, to build a new affordable community on 80 acres of land near the city of Horizon West. According to Business Insider, the community will include 1,400 housing units, and 1,000 of them will be designated as affordable units. Walt Disney World already owns the land, which is about 20 minutes west of the theme park. 'We selected this land because it is part of a thriving community, close to employers, shopping, services, public schools, and areas of rest and recreation. We feel there is no better-positioned community in Central Florida to provide residents the opportunity to start a new chapter of their story,' Disney said in a statement. Trending: If there was a new fund backed by Jeff Bezos offering a ? It sounds like a great deal for Walt Disney World employees, but the plan is not without its detractors. The Horizon West area has experienced rapid population growth and development in the past several years. Area residents are becoming more vocal in expressing their belief that their community can't handle any more development. Orange County District One Commissioner Nicole Wilson has heard those complaints, and Business Insider says she voted against the project last year. Business Insider cites U.S. Census data showing Horizon West's population has grown from 14,000 people in 2010 to 58,000 in 2020. The post-pandemic era brought about another boom, and now 75,000 people live in Horizon West. Area real estate agent Nicole Mickle told Business Insider that the Horizon West real estate market was so hot during the post-pandemic boom that she was selling homes via is constant in real estate, and those changes can be incredibly jarring to local residents when markets get overheated. Naturally, that causes residents to fret that their community is losing the small-town feel that originally attracted them to the area. 'What some want to do is keep the integrity of the community,' Mickle told Business Insider. It looks like they will have to adjust to the new reality. Wilson's "no" vote wasn't enough to stop the project from going forward. Construction is set to begin, and 1,400 new housing units are coming to Horizon West. This may also be a look at the future of real estate development. Attracting employees for regular jobs is becoming increasingly difficult due to the lack of affordable housing. Larger companies may take note of Horizon West and follow suit in other areas. . With over $1 million in dividends paid out last quarter and a growing selection of properties across various markets, Arrived offers an attractive alternative for investors seeking to build a diversified real estate portfolio. In October 2024, Arrived sold The Centennial, achieving a total return of 34.7% (11.2% average annual returns) for investors.
