Kubernetes is a revolutionary technology for orchestrating containerized applications, enabling organizations to deploy and manage applications efficiently. Containers’ portability, scalability, and agility have transformed software development and deployment. However, these benefits come with significant security challenges, including risks associated with vulnerabilities in container images and potential misconfigurations.

Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) has become essential for monitoring cloud infrastructure, identifying risks, and enforcing security policies. As cloud adoption grows, managing the complexity of these environments—where misconfigurations and vulnerabilities can lead to breaches—requires a robust approach. This is where security frameworks come into the picture. Security frameworks offer structured guidelines and best practices for managing and improving security posture.

We’re thrilled to announce a new partnership with OVHcloud, a leading global cloud provider! This collaboration brings industry-leading security solutions to OVHcloud users, empowering them to confidently scale their applications.

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) is important for managing permissions in Kubernetes environments, ensuring that users have the appropriate level of access to resources. However, organizations often encounter challenges in effectively managing their role-based access control systems, which can lead to security vulnerabilities and compliance issues. Below are the best RBAC tools for managing Kubernetes RBAC, ensuring compliance and enhancing security within cloud-native applications.

Kubernetes continues to evolve its security posture with version 1.32, introducing several significant improvements in authentication, authorization, and auditing mechanisms. These enhancements provide more granular control, improved traceability, and stronger security defaults.

We’re honored to share a new partnership with Orange Business (Norway), a global leader in digital services. ARMO was selected to secure Orange Business’ new Managed Kubernetes Service (MKS) with ARMO’s advanced runtime-driven cloud security platform. This collaboration marks a significant milestone in delivering robust security solutions for on-premises Kubernetes environments for Orange Business.

Runtime security in multi-cloud environments encompasses the continuous monitoring and protection of cloud-based resources during their active operation. Unlike traditional security approaches that focus on static configurations or pre-deployment checks, runtime security emphasizes: This approach ensures that potential risks are identified and mitigated in real-time, providing an additional layer of protection against both known and emerging threats in complex multi-cloud setups.

The dynamic world of Kubernetes and cloud security is constantly evolving. As we explore this complicated ecosystem, it’s crucial to understand the role of policy as code (PaC) and its impact on operations and security teams. Emerging from the broader paradigm of infrastructure as code (IaC), PaC represents a significant shift in how we manage and secure cloud-native environments.

Have you ever heard of CVEs? Maybe not by their acronym, but Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures, monitored by the CVE Program Mission, are everywhere. As of the writing of this article, there are over 220,000 CVE Records available—meaning many potential threats you could be exposed to. How can you ever protect your infrastructure against this reality? Well, the good news is, you usually don’t have to.

Almost all organizations either rely on cloud computing or are planning to adopt cloud computing technologies soon to ensure their businesses remain competitive and gain an edge over the competition. As businesses increasingly rely on cloud services to manage their operations, the complexity of these environments continues to grow, introducing new challenges in maintaining security and compliance. This is where Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) comes into the picture.
