Navigating Network Services and Policy With Helm

Deploying an application on Kubernetes can require a number of related deployment artifacts or spec files: Deployment, Service, PVCs, ConfigMaps, Service Account — to name just a few. Managing all of these resources and relating them to deployed apps can be challenging, especially when it comes to tracking changes and updates to the deployed application (actual state) and its original source (authorized or desired state).

Zero Trust Security: Supporting a CARTA approach with Network Security

Learn how to support, what Gartner has termed, a continuous adaptive risk and trust assessment (CARTA) when building a CaaS platform using Kubernetes. Network security enables microsegmentation and is a core component of a zero trust security model. It allows you to protect your workloads against threats without relying on assumptions about the network, infrastructure, and workloads.

Security Orchestration Use Case: How to Automate VPN Checks?

An organization can have innumerable VPN access attempts from within or outside its facility. In the world of globalization and cloud computing, even these attempts can be made from outside the country. Checking each attempt manually is a daunting task for enterprises as it consumes a lot of time and engages more security professionals. The basic VPN checks involve DNS Leaks, IP Address Leaks (e.g., IPv4 and IPv6), and WebRTC Leaks.

Improving Incident Response Time With Smarter Network Security Tools

One of the biggest concerns of any cybersecurity analyst is whether or not they will be able to stop an attack before it can do any damage. That said, making sense of the flood of alerts is, in itself, a time-consuming task. As networks become more complex and malicious attacks become more advanced, it can become difficult to hit your incident response targets. With the right network security tools, however, your organization very quickly can detect, prioritize and remediate threats.

Why Zero Trust Is Not As Bad As It Sounds

"Zero Trust" refers to a network security strategy that calls for all users – internal and external – to be authenticated before gaining access to the network. Zero Trust means organizations never implicitly trust anyone with their sensitive data. Instead of using a blanket network perimeter, Zero Trust networks implement a series of micro-perimeters around data so only users with clearance to access certain data points can get to them.

Cybersecurity Predictions: The Network Perimeter Will Be Reborn

The future of cybersecurity includes a major change to enterprise network perimeters. They are going to be reshaped into something new — micro-perimeters. This is the act of cordoning-off entire sections of systems in order to avoid major compromise when only one segment of the architecture is weak.
