Today we’re very excited to announce a partnership with Amazon to support Fargate in Sysdig’s product line. We are also announcing that Falco, the world’s most popular runtime security tool for containers, will soon be able to work on Fargate. This is an important milestone. For the first time, Fargate users will enjoy the benefit of deep instrumentation. This will make their workloads more secure, reliable, and efficient.
Calico is an open source networking and network security solution for containers, virtual machines, and native host-based workloads. Calico supports a broad range of platforms including Kubernetes, OpenShift, Docker EE, OpenStack, and bare metal. In this blog, we will focus on Kubernetes pod networking and network security using Calico. Calico uses etcd as the back-end datastore. When you run Calico on Kubernetes, you can use the same etcd datastore through the Kubernetes API server.
In this blog, we will cover the various requirements you need to meet to achieve PCI compliance, as well as how Sysdig Secure can help you continuously validate PCI compliance for containers and Kubernetes. Learn how to meet PCI Compliance Requirements for Container and Kubernetes Environments!
Container use continues to grow, and Kubernetes is the most widely adopted container orchestration system, managing nearly half of all container deployments.1 Successful integration of container services within the enterprise depends heavily on access to external resources such as databases, cloud services, third-party application programming interfaces (APIs), and other applications. All this egress activity must be controlled for security and compliance reasons.
Sysdig is working with VMware to deliver enhanced microservice and cloud security. Leveraging the container runtime security capabilities of Sysdig Secure along with the operations and security policies of VMware Tanzu Service Mesh, built on VMware NSX, customers will be better able to accelerate Kubernetes and cloud adoption, as well as application modernization.
2020 is predicted to be an exciting year with more organizations adopting Kubernetes than ever before. As critical workloads with sensitive data migrate to the cloud, we can expect to encounter various Advanced Persistent Threats (APT) targeting that environment.
For the impatient, in this blog post, we’ll look into the problem of preparing a Kubernetes application to be deployed into a large number of Kubernetes clusters, even if you, the developer, do not have direct access to them all. The tutorial parts of this post will utilize Gravity 7.0, which you can download here. This version is in beta at the time of publication, so be sure to select pre-releases in the dropdown on the download page to access it.
the k8s-security-configwatch GitHub Action, an open source tool from Sysdig, secures your GitOps workloads by detecting changes on your Kubernetes security configuration.
