Load Balancing Kubernetes Application Traffic for Best Results

In the same way that conventional software relies on application load balancers for dependability, accessibility, and efficiency, a cloud-based setup necessitates a cloud load balancer to distribute workloads across a company's cloud resources. It's crucial to balance the traffic of Kubernetes applications for optimal user experience. A cloud load balancer spreads network traffic across multiple clouds and load balancing traffic for Kubernetes applications, allowing for the distribution of demand evenly across the Kubernetes pods that constitute the service.

Leveraging Zero Trust and Threat Intelligence for DDoS Protection

With the growing number of botnets escalating the danger of denial of service attacks, companies are increasing their focus on DDoS defense. The Zero Trust architecture plays a crucial role in this endeavor, helping to secure networks from being used as weapons and ensuring that only verified and authorized individuals can access resources.

What Are Cyber Criminals?

Cyber criminals are individuals or groups of people who use computers and networks to commit online crimes. Sometimes using malware programs, they aim to harm other individuals, companies, and governments. Though their methods are varied, cyber criminals frequently employ ransomware, holding your data hostage; and data exfiltration, the unauthorized extraction of your data. Guarding against cyber crime requires the awareness and participation of everyone in an organization.

Infrastructure Attacks vs. Application Attacks

An infrastructure attack aims to exploit vulnerabilities in the network layer or transport layer. These attacks are called DDoS attacks and include SYN floods, Ping of Death, and UDP floods. Infrastructure attacks can be broken down into two subcategories: volumetric attacks and protocol attacks. Volumetric attacks focus on inundating a server with false requests to overload its bandwidth, while protocol attacks target specific protocols to crash a system.

What is a data breach?

Data breaches can take many forms, from an unintentional release of information by an unaware employee, to a cyber criminal using stolen login credentials to access sensitive data to a ransomware attack that encrypts a company's confidential information. The types of data that can be involved also vary; it can be personal health information, such as medical records; personally identifiable information like driver's license numbers, financial information, such as credit card numbers; and trade secrets and intellectual property like product designs.
