Adding runtime threat detection to Google Kubernetes Engine with Falco

One of the big advantages of running your workloads on a managed Kubernetes service like Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) is that Google ensures your clusters are being deployed and managed following industry best practices. While GKE clusters are incredibly secure and reliable, there is always room for improvement. In this blog, we’re going to describe how you can enhance GKE’s already great security by adding runtime threat detection with Falco.

Unveiling the Cloud's Hidden Risks: How to Gain Control of Your Cloud Environment

In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, the cloud has become an indispensable tool for businesses seeking agility and scalability. However, this migration also brings a new set of challenges, particularly when it comes to security.

Intelligent Data Classification: Transforming Google Drive Security

Our customers often tell us about how they implement manual classification policies. However, with several hundreds of files created daily, and constant sharing between teams, it becomes impossible to enforce secure sharing and sensitive data protection. Imagine that your sales team just accidentally shared a spreadsheet containing customer credit card details with an external vendor. Or perhaps your HR department stored employee health records in a folder that wasn't properly restricted.

How to Keep Your CCaaS Solution Secure

A Contact Center as a Service (CCaaS) solution offers your business the flexibility and scalability necessary to manage customer interactions efficiently.

Navigating the Future: Cloud Migration Journeys and Data Security

For years, businesses have been chasing innovation with cloud platforms, moving beyond the limitations of legacy technology for greater speed and agility, and sharpening their competitive edge. However, all businesses often face challenges that complicate cloud migration, driving up costs and timelines while exposing the business to data security risks. Ultimately, these challenges block businesses from experiencing the true benefits of cloud integration, and in some cases, lead to significant breaches and regulatory fines.

What to look for in Cloud Security

Cloud computing is changing how companies handle their data, providing unparalleled scalability and flexibility. Gartner predicts that by 2025, 85% of businesses will primarily use cloud services. But this change also brings in associated security risks. The 2023 Cloud Security Report by Cybersecurity Insiders found that 93% of companies are concerned about security risks in the cloud. As more businesses move to the cloud, making sure they have good security measures is very important.

Identify the secrets that make your cloud environment more vulnerable to an attack

Compromised secrets, such as leaked API and SSH keys, credentials, and session tokens, are the leading cause of cloud security incidents. While attackers can directly compromise secrets through methods like phishing, they can also gain control by finding and taking advantage of simple misconfigurations in your environment.

Prevention Cloud: Protecting Your Data from Malware and Other Threats

It is more important than ever to keep your info safe. Malware, ransomware, and cybercriminals who target cloud-based assets are always a danger to businesses because more and more sensitive data is being stored in the cloud. Cybersecurity Ventures recently released a report that says the costs of cybercrime will hit $10.5 trillion per year by 2025. Data breaches and cloud vulnerabilities will be the main causes of this.

Identity is the Perimeter of the Cloud

93% of last year’s data breaches began with compromised credentials. Before the cloud, security perimeters were defined by physical walls and network boundaries, but in the cloud, that perimeter has all but dissolved. Consider what happened in November 2023, when a cloud observability vendor found evidence of unauthorized access to its staging environment — an environment that housed customer data and PII.
