We hear a lot about the urgency of transition from DevOps to DevSecOps, and with good reason. The ongoing rise in cyberattacks across the software supply chain, coupled with a shifting regulatory landscape, highlights the growing urgency of improving application security. But it’s one thing to recognize the importance of integrating security into the software development process, and another thing to actually succeed at doing so.

Let’s talk about operational risk and security risk. In the dynamic world of software development, a persistent tension exists between developers and security professionals when it comes to managing operational risk and security risk. Developers prioritize avoiding code disruptions, leading them to implement measures like version locking and reluctance to patch.

Kubernetes has become the de facto standard for container orchestration and management, providing a powerful platform for deploying and managing containerized applications. One of the key benefits of Kubernetes is its support for namespaces, which allow users to isolate groups of resources within a cluster, providing a level of isolation and resource allocation for different applications or teams.
