Read the full newsletter to see how banks can shorten settlement cycles, recognize revenue sooner, and build resilience for the future.

Our Capture the Flag contest this year pushed Arcesium's best minds to their limits, and reminded us that cybersecurity is as creative as it is critical. ✨ 219 global teams showed up for 24 electrifying hours of problem-solving and tackling real-world challenges in web vulnerabilities, reverse engineering, cloud security, Kubernetes, and more. The competition was to find “flags” within vulnerable programs, in a fixed amount of time. And we saw a submission come in every 15 seconds on average! 👏 A huge salute to every competitor, the organizing team, and to our InfoSec team for delivering an amazing learning experience and strengthening our security mindset. #LifeAtArcesium

RelQuest is our internal challenge for the Reliability Engineering team, which pushes our engineers to think fast, troubleshoot under pressure, and collaborate closely. Here’s what the winning team shared about the event: 🧠 Unexpected insight: “We were surprised by how often reliability issues came down to small but critical misconfigurations — things like readiness probes, limits, or node selectors. Focusing on the basics has already changed how we troubleshoot problems in our day-to-day work.” 💪 Toughest moment: “That was when we hit an intermittent service failure. Logs looked fine, yet requests kept failing at random. That challenge taught us to step back, question assumptions, and stay persistent until the root cause surfaced.” 🤝 Teamwork in action: “Teamwork truly defined our experience! Each of us could tackle problems on our own, but whenever we hit a roadblock, we came together to find solutions. That mix of independence and collaboration meant we could move much faster together than we ever could have individually.” Shoutout to our champions for demonstrating that the best outcomes come from learning and growing together! #LifeAtArcesium #Teamwork #EngineeringExcellence
