How to secure Kubernetes Ingress?

Ingress aims to simplify the way you create access to your Kubernetes services by leveraging traffic routing rules that are defined during the creation of the Ingress resource. This ultimately allows you to expose HTTP and HTTPS from outside the Kubernetes cluster so you no longer need to expose each service separately—something that can be expensive and tedious as an application scales, resulting in an increase in services.

How to decide what to fix when you can't fix everything

Contributing to a legacy software development project, as a security-aware developer, is a bit like inheriting an old house. In my old house, the roof is missing tiles, the bathroom taps are dripping, the front door doesn't lock properly, the hallway needs redecorating and there are worrying cracks in the foundations. I don't know where to start. The security problems with the application I've recently (hypothetically) joined are similarly vexing and diverse. It has deprecated dependencies to older versions of software libraries. It could be misconfigured using insecure protocols.

3 New GitHub Features to Reinforce Your Code, Repo, and Dependency Security

Stranger Danger: Your JavaScript Attack Surface Just Got Bigger

Building JavaScript applications today means that we take a step further from writing code. We use open-source dependencies, create a Dockerfile to deploy containers to the cloud, and orchestrate this infrastructure with Kubernetes. Welcome, you're a cloud native application developer! As developers, our responsibility broadened, and more software means more software security concerns for us to address.
