February 2026 — RIPE-NCC/whois: Security hardening and data-import reliability upgrades. Delivered an Authentication System Overhaul with a secure path forward (password deprecation, control flag to disable password auth, updated tests and error messaging, plus user guidance toward PGP signing or API keys). Implemented GRS Import Process Enhancements (better timestamp handling and warnings for outdated downloads) to improve data freshness and import reliability. Both initiatives reduce security risk, improve user experience, and bolster data integrity.
