Mobile Credentials Are a Journey, Not a Jump

Mobile credentials are being increasingly adopted in physical security, but the transition requires careful planning rather than an abrupt switch. System integrators must navigate client readiness, legacy infrastructure, and evolving technologies like AI and machine learning. The shift is best approached as a phased journey that balances innovation with operational continuity.

As the physical security landscape continues to evolve, system integrators find themselves at the intersection of rapid technological innovation and ever-growing client demands. Artificial intelligence and machine learning are no longer distant concepts—they’re becoming standard components of modern security solutions, from predictive threat detection to real-time analytics. At the same time, the growing adoption of mobile credentials is reshaping how organizations think about access control, ushering in a new era of convenience, flexibility, and security. But amid all this change, one constant remains: the critical role that integrators play in tying these technologies together into cohesive, reliable systems. Supporting these professionals requires more than just great products—it demands collaboration, education, and a deep understanding of emerging needs. That’s where networks like PSA come in, serving as a hub of resources, innovation, and strategic guidance for integrators navigating this shifting terrain.

For a deeper dive into these challenges and opportunities including how mobile credentials are becoming a key focus area for enterprise clients, don’t miss the latest episode of AMAG Asks Experts: Integrator Community. Host Kyle Gordon speaks with Matt Barnette, CEO and President of PSA Network, about how PSA is helping integrators thrive in an increasingly complex world.

Uber cut 3,300 jobs in September. Now it is giving 30,000 employees ChatGPT

Uber cut 3,300 jobs in September. Now it is giving 30,000 employees ChatGPT

Uber deployed ChatGPT Work to more than 30,000 employees seven weeks after cutting about 3,300 jobs (10% of corporate staff). The company framed layoffs as organizational restructuring, while the rollout expands a pilot that embedded AI engineers with teams to automate pieces of their work.

  • 01Uber expanded ChatGPT Work from a 1,000-person pilot to over 30,000 employees across operations, finance, marketing, and product teams.
  • 02During the pilot, 80% of early adopters were non-engineers, and AI pods of 30 engineers paired with teams to automate work such as analyzing operational data, localizing training materials, and building dashboards.
  • 03Uber’s rollout shows AI deployments can go beyond licenses: curated integrations, embedded technical support, an internal skills library, and plans to measure adoption and outcomes.

PHP2Shell: two critical PHP flaws put 34 million web services on the clock

PHP2Shell: two critical PHP flaws put 34 million web services on the clock

Two critical unauthenticated remote code execution flaws in PHP (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619) with CVSS 9.2 scores affected 34.4 million vulnerable services as of October 23, with no patches available for PHP 8.1 and older. Exploitation attempts reached millions within hours of disclosure, though confirmed compromises remain unproven, while attackers tested a Mirai-derived botnet variant against production servers.

  • 0134.4 million PHP services were vulnerable to the remote code execution flaws as of October 23, with roughly 272,000 hosts running supported branches that received patches
  • 02PHP 8.1 and older versions have no official patch available, requiring migration to a supported branch or acceptance of backported fixes from Linux distributions
  • 03Exploit attempts grew from tens of thousands within 45 minutes of disclosure to millions by October 22, but ASLR and proper error-display configuration on production servers have so far prevented confirmed code execution

Two-phase cold plates run in desert heat on warm water loops

Two-phase cold plates run in desert heat on warm water loops

UNICOM Engineering chief technologist Austin Hypes compares rear door, single-phase, two-phase and immersion cooling for AI racks on Flawless Execution. He says two-phase cold plates use dielectric refrigerant and can avoid chillers and evaporative towers in hot, dry sites, and immersion can keep servers up ten to 15 minutes and sometimes an hour or more after a cooling loss. Schneider Electric engineers cite estimates that single-phase holds about 55% of the 2026 liquid cooling market.

  • 01A Motivair by Schneider Electric engineer puts single-phase cold plates at an estimated 55% of the 2026 liquid cooling market and expects them to dominate for five to 10 years.
