Network automation has many benefits for organizations adopting a DevOps model for managing their infrastructure, including speed, agility, and a consistent change control process. However, with improvements in speed, there comes an added risk of configuration errors rapidly propagating through the network. To safeguard against potential mistakes, network and security verification become an essential part of the network DevOps lifecycle.
There’s no question that the last 18 months have seen a pronounced increase in the sophistication of cyber threats. The technology industry is seeing a macro effect of global events propelling ransomware and wiperware development further into the future, rendering enterprise security systems useless. Here at Coralogix, we’re passionate about observability and security and what the former can do for the latter.
Kubernetes (K8s) has achieved undeniable mainstream status, with 96% of organizations currently evaluating or already using this technology, according to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). This popularity also brings growing scrutiny over Kubernetes compliance standards and audits, in light of how Kubernetes and cloud native technologies demand a very different approach to security.
Due to the proliferation of cloud-native environments, ransomware attacks have increased dramatically in recent years. Cybercriminals can access a variety of ransomware tools from anywhere in the world at a moment’s notice. This capability has produced an entire economy of Ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS). Despite significant investment in real-time infrastructure security tools, organizations are failing to quickly identify and recover from an attack.
Compliance regulation is a necessary evil in the world of cybersecurity. As a CISO, you need to be aware of all compliance regulations that affect your organization so that you can ensure your security program meets these requirements while also protecting sensitive data.
