EDITOR'S NOTE

Good afternoon,

A popular billing platform for web hosting companies, WHMCS, has acknowledged a breach of servers that saw thousands of credit card details, passwords and usernames exposed online overnight.

And the Federal Government has progressed on plans to implement a 'G-Cloud', issuing guidelines to direct a common approach to pooling resources between agencies. The approach could see smaller agencies use the resources of larger ones, rather than going to market.

-- James Hutchinson
