Containers

Monitor your secure workloads on Kata Containers with Datadog

Kata Containers is an open source project that seeks to enhance security for containers by isolating them in lightweight VMs. Each Kata Container runs with the speed and flexibility of standard containers, and it easily integrates with common container management software—including Docker and Kubernetes.

GoTestWAF - Quick start with Docker and PDF report

GoTestWAF is a tool for API and OWASP attack simulation that supports a wide range of API protocols including REST, GraphQL, gRPC, WebSockets, SOAP, XMLRPC, and others. It was designed to evaluate web application security solutions, such as API security proxies, Web Application Firewalls, IPS, API gateways, and others.

The Urgent Need for Real-time Cloud Detection & Response

It is impressive how explosively the cloud security market has embraced detection and response in recent months. The industry, including both users and vendors, is rapidly acknowledging the complexity of modern cloud attacks. Facilitated by automation and APIs, attacks cannot be effectively countered with traditional solutions that lack context of cloud environments or focus solely on posture.

Using webhooks to boost cloud-native application security

In the ever-evolving landscape of cloud-native applications built with containers and Kubernetes, webhooks serve as the communication backbone, facilitating seamless integration between various components, especially in the realms of security, networking, and troubleshooting. This is further amplified when combined with popular collaboration tools such as Jira and Slack.

CISO Takeaways: Sysdig's 2024 Cloud-Native Security and Usage Report

After a year of cyber attacks making headlines worldwide, many organizations, such as MGM Resorts, Clorox, and T-Mobile, have taken a reputational hit similar to SolarWinds. Sysdig’s 2024 Cloud-Native Security and Usage Report provided some informative key takeaways that CISOs can hone in on to improve their security posture. As a CISO, you do not want to catch your organization on that list; mitigating reputational risk is a part of your job.

OWASP Top 10 with OPA/Styra

Among other things, the OWASP organization delivers reports on the Top 10 most prevalent and important security risks for web-based software development. In 2019 they started reporting on the Top 10 API Security risks and refreshed that list in 2023. In this blog we describe how OPA/Styra can help with 9 of the 10 risks, and for each one we rate how impactful OPA/Styra is: Below we detail each of these 10 risks and briefly how to address them with OPA and Styra.

Cloud Threats deploying Crypto CDN

The Sysdig Threat Research Team (TRT) discovered a malicious campaign using the blockchain-based Meson service to reap rewards ahead of the crypto token unlock happening around March 15th. Within minutes, the attacker attempted to create 6,000 Meson Network nodes using a compromised cloud account. The Meson Network is a decentralized content delivery network (CDN) that operates in Web3 by establishing a streamlined bandwidth marketplace through a blockchain protocol.

Sysdig integration with Backstage

Developers are frequently tasked with working with multiple tools in the cloud-native era. Each of these tools plays a crucial role in the application life cycle, from development to deployment and operations. However, the sheer variety and diversity of these tools can increase the likelihood of errors or the accidental inclusion of critical vulnerabilities and misconfigurations.

Customers Rate Sysdig 5 Out of 5 in Gartner Voice of the Customer for Cloud Security Posture Management Tools

As more and more workloads move to the cloud, the attack surface security teams need to secure has grown exponentially. To guard the massive perimeter of the cloud, you need to position your cloud infrastructure to be as safe as possible by default.
