Why Kubernetes Flat Networks Fail at Scale-and Why Your Cluster Needs a Security Hierarchy

Jan 28, 2026 By Reza Ramezanpour In Tigera
Kubernetes networking offers incredible power, but scaling that power often transforms a clean architecture into a tangled web of complexity. Managing traffic flow between hundreds of microservices across dozens of namespaces presents a challenge that touches every layer of the organization, from engineers debugging connections to the architects designing for compliance. The solution to these diverging challenges lies in bringing structure and validation to standard Kubernetes networking.

When Sensitive Data Becomes a Picture: Introducing ML-Powered Image Classification for DLP

Jan 26, 2026 By Dr. Guy Waizel In Cato Networks
Dr. Carter finishes a long shift at the hospital, exports a patient X-ray as a regular image file, and drags it into an AI assistant to double-check a diagnosis. The image included the patient’s name and ID. Across town, Jason, a travel agent, scans a stack of passports and uploads the images to an AI tool to automatically fill bookings. In a support center, Sarah snaps a quick photo of a credit card and sends it to an AI service to avoid retyping the number.

Building a Resilient City: How Cato Rolls Out PoP Changes Safely

Jan 22, 2026 By Dr. Guy Waizel In Cato Networks
Imagine a new city that promises cheap housing and ultra-modern infrastructure. People move in, only to discover that the roads are constantly jammed, power cuts happen every evening, water pressure drops without warning, and there are no cameras or sensors to detect where things are breaking. There is no central control room to test changes safely before the next “improvement” hits the streets. It does not matter how attractive the city looked on paper.

A New Security-Focused Path Search View for Faster, Clearer Analysis

Jan 20, 2026 By Forward Networks In Forward Networks
Security teams frequently investigate whether traffic is allowed, denied, or translated along a path, but traditional visualization methods create unnecessary complexity. A standard Path Search view includes every L2 and L3 hop—switches, routers, and intermediary devices that participate in forwarding but apply no security policy. While this depth is helpful for network troubleshooting, it overwhelms analysts focused specifically on enforcement points.
