HTTPS is the standard method for internet communications that transmit sensitive data. The TLS protocol is the backbone of HTTPS, encrypting connections so transmitted information can’t be intercepted or modified. HTTPS should also be used with local web applications that transmit sensitive data. This includes NetApp servers, since external applications and users need to authenticate, authorize and transfer data with the NetApp ONTAP operating system.

I recently had the pleasure of participating in a great panel discussion at the San Diego Cyber Security Summit, entitled “Cloud Security — Leveraging Its Strengths and Overcoming Its Vulnerabilities,” alongside representatives from Palo Alto Networks, Gigamon, Sysdig, Lacework, Imperva, and Tufin.

Velero is an open source tool for backing up and restoring resources in a Kubernetes cluster, performing disaster recovery, and migrating resources and persistent volumes to another Kubernetes cluster. Velero backup helps many organizations protect data stored in persistent volumes and makes your entire Kubernetes cluster more resilient. Velero has been pulled over 50M times from DockerHub! It is the most popular data protection choice for the Kubernetes community.

DevOps engineers must handle secrets with care. In this series, we summarize best practices for leveraging secrets with your everyday tools.

I recently had the pleasure of joining Marina Novikova, partner solutions architect from AWS in a webinar to discuss the key principles for building modern application security programs. We explored the big issues facing AppSec today, and why many companies are taking a new approach. As the world becomes increasingly application-driven, security can no longer be simply a box-ticking exercise for compliance purposes. It must do much more to ensure that software is delivered safely.
