Cloud-native software development is a driving force because it empowers teams to build and deploy applications at speed and scale. Along with microservices, cloud infrastructure, and API’s, containers are a crucial part of this development process. Let’s look at the security implications of containers in cloud-native application development and how to manage the security challenges they pose.
Containerization is becoming increasingly common due to portability, ability to isolate application dependencies, scalability, cost effectiveness, and ease of use. The ability to easily package and deploy code has changed the way that organizations work with applications. But like with Windows servers years ago, or AWS today, any time one specific technology gains a significant portion of the market share, it becomes a target for attackers.
Mid-winter is fast approaching, meaning it’s nearly time to start thinking about spring again! But here at Catalogic all we’ve been thinking about lately is adding more features to CloudCasa. We were thrilled to hear that CloudCasa has been named a Kubernetes data protection leader and outperformer in the recently released GigaOm Radar for Kubernetes Data Protection Report, but we have no intention of resting on our laurels!
The sixth annual Sysdig Cloud-Native Security and Usage Report digs into how Sysdig customers of all sizes and industries are using, securing, and paying for cloud and container environments. We examined the data and found some interesting trends that may help you as you work to develop best practices for securing and monitoring your cloud-native environments. This year’s report has new data on cloud security, container vulnerabilities, and Kubernetes cost optimization.
Most Kubernetes users understand the complexity involved in managing multiple Kubernetes clusters, especially when those clusters are hosted in hybrid cloud or multi-cloud environments.
This month, Sysdig Secure brings the General Availability of our Host Scanning & CSPM Compliance features. Other changes include Host Vulnerability Reporting, IaC Scanning of Terraform in AWS, and more! Our SDK, CLI, and tools have had several updates and improvements as well.
PostgreSQL is a powerful, open-source relational database management system (RDBMS). Because of its robustness and scalability, PostgreSQL is used extensively in the cloud. Most public cloud providers including AWS, Azure and GCP provide database services to their customers based on PostgreSQL.
