The best recognition comes from the people who experience your culture every day. Congratulations to the Oakland team on this richly deserved certification!
We're starting the week with an award - it's not just any award, it's one voted for by the Oaklanders who make Oakland Everything Data such a special place. This award actually recognises how it feels to work here. So with no further ado, we can share that Oakland is now officially Great Place To Work Certified™. The thing that makes this one special? You can't enter it with a fancy PowerPoint or a polished awards submission. It's based on what our people actually say about working at Oakland. We've always believed that if we look after our people, they'll do extraordinary things for our clients. That's why we've built a culture around freedom to grow, supporting one another, having the confidence to challenge ideas, and never taking ourselves too seriously along the way. From our flexible career framework and wellbeing initiatives to our annual training budget, Oakland Futures programme, Oakfest and the occasional laser tag battle, we've tried to create a place where brilliant people can do their best work and genuinely enjoy doing it. As our Head of People, Samantha Fearnley, puts it: "The best places to work don't happen by accident. They happen because people care enough to keep making them better, and we're never finished! We're always looking for new ways to create a better experience for everyone, especially as we grow. So this award isn't just something that sits on the shelf - it belongs to every single Oaklander who shows up, supports each other, and helps make Oakland what it is." And... With TWENTY new roles about to become live we're growing even bigger and better. Check out our website for more details we'd love to hear from you. #EverythingData #Greatplacestowork #hiring

Ransomware is increasingly identity-led. When attackers compromise Active Directory, they often compromise everything that depends on it, which, in most organisations, is nearly everything. That’s why “traditional backup” thinking can leave a recovery gap. AD recovery is complex, time-critical, and malicious changes can replicate across domain controllers within minutes. In this blog, we explore why AD is targeted so often and what a more resilient approach looks like, including Commvault’s focus on identity resilience through integrated capabilities like change tracking, alerting, audit trails and rollback.

Looking back on an incredible week at HPE Discover 2026 in Las Vegas. 🌟 Alongside our customers and partners at Hewlett Packard Enterprise, we explored how organisations are preparing for the next phase of AI adoption, from modernising networks and hybrid cloud environments to navigating the operational and governance challenges that come with AI at scale. One of the biggest themes throughout the week was that successful AI strategies rely on more than just compute power. The underlying infrastructure, networking and operational foundations are becoming increasingly important as businesses look to turn AI ambitions into real outcomes. Beyond the announcements and keynote sessions, the real value came from bringing together Softcat, HPE and our customers to have open conversations, share experiences and discuss how these industry trends translate into practical business opportunities. We were also proud to see Softcat recognised as HPE AI Solution Partner of the Year 2025, reflecting the strength of our partnership and our shared commitment to helping customers innovate with confidence. Thank you to HPE and everyone who joined us. We're excited to bring these insights back to our customers and to continue growing the conversations and connections that made this year's event so valuable.
