Any time the television news presents a story about cybersecurity, there is always a video of a large data center with thousands of blinking lights. Even most cybersecurity blogs will include an image of many lights on the front panels of servers, routers, and other hardware. However, most people don’t notice that the lights are usually green or some shade of blue. Rarely are those lights yellow or red, signaling a problem.

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.

In the dynamic landscape of financial services, data is not just currency; it's the key to innovation and operational excellence. Data is constantly streamlining from devices, logins, transfers, transactions, and much more, and it’s bound to increase with an ongoing reliance on digital channels. This creates a massive opportunity and responsibility for financial institutions, as their customers (and regulators) demand more from banking providers.

What monitoring coverage do we have of our infrastructure, people, data, and suppliers?

In a world where data is the new currency, understanding and leveraging data monitoring has become indispensable. Data monitoring involves systematically collecting, analyzing, and managing data to uphold its quality, security, and compliance—a critical process in a world where data influences every decision and innovation.

When it comes to IoT, monitoring is not optional but mandatory for success. This comprehensive guide demystifies IoT monitoring in plain language—learn why it’s essential, which components need your attention, and how to implement it effectively. Prevent costly downtimes, secure your network, and gain unparalleled control over your IoT ecosystem.

It was almost exactly 10 years ago in December 2013 that we wrote our first blog post about detecting CryptoLocker, which was the first sophisticated Ransomware attack of its kind back then. BTW, 2013 was the year of the Boston Marathon bombing, Edward Snowden leaking secret NSA information, Syrians fleeing their home country and Nelson Mandela passing away.

The Sysdig 2024 Cloud‑Native Security and Usage Report highlights the evolving threat landscape, but more importantly, as the adoption of cloud-native technologies such as container and Kubernetes continue to increase, not all organizations are following best practices. This is ultimately handing attackers an advantage when it comes to exploiting containers for resource utilization in operations such as Kubernetes.
