7 Smart Steps to Run Serverless Containers on Kubernetes

Serverless containers mark a notable evolution from traditional containerization. Traditional containers, being continuously active, can lead to resource wastage. Serverless containers, however, are ephemeral and operate on-demand. For developers, this means less time spent on server management and more on coding. Kubernetes, or K8s, stands out in automating, scaling, and managing these containerized applications.

5-Step Guide on Securing Serverless Architectures in the Cloud with RASP

Serverless architecture has increased in recent years, and is anticipated to grow by nearly 25% over the next decade, According to one source, the serverless architecture market was worth over $9 billion in 2022, with its compound annual growth rate projected to increase. The market could be worth over $90 billion by 2032. This indicates the immense amount of potential that this industry carries, influenced by the increasing adoption of DevOps by organizations.

8 Serverless Security Best Practices for Any Cloud

Time, cost, and quality – hitting this trifecta is the ultimate goal of any software organization. Its pursuit over decades has resulted in multiple application development methodologies like serverless computing, an emerging and popular cloud computing model touted as the future. Nearly 70% of organizations will increase their usage of serverless computing by 2025.

Secure serverless applications with Datadog ASM

The popularity of serverless architectures continues to grow as organizations seek ease of scalability and to eliminate the need to provision and manage infrastructure. In fact, in our most recent State of Serverless report, we found that more than half of our customers have adopted serverless technologies offered by Azure, Google Cloud, and AWS.

The Developer's Guide to Serverless Security

Serverless computing brings a highly efficient way to deploy applications and run software on demand. Testament to that is the fact that serverless application adoption is increasing significantly over the years, with at least 1 in 5 organizations using FaaS (Function as a Service) in major Cloud providers such as Amazon, Azure & GCP.

Why end-to-end visibility is critical to secure your apps in a serverless world

One of the universal truths in technology is that security always lags behind innovation. Companies must move quickly as they seek to innovate, increase efficiencies and be disruptive in ever-crowded markets. Living on the bleeding edge means you will get a few cuts, but the risk of not adopting new technologies is greater than those of a few system failures or breaches. One challenge is that it is often not apparent what new risks exist until boundaries are pushed.

Vulnerable AWS Lambda function - Initial access in cloud attacks - Blog Article

Serverless is becoming mainstream in business applications to achieve scalability, performance, and cost efficiency without managing the underlying infrastructure. Our security research team will explain a real attack scenario from the black box and white box perspective on how a vulnerable AWS Lambda function could be used by attackers as initial access into your cloud environment. Finally, we show the best practices to mitigate this vector of attack.

AWS Fargate runtime security - Implementing File Integrity Monitoring with Sysdig

Thanks to serverless you can focus on your apps, instead of your infrastructure. Take AWS Fargate as an example. A service where you can deploy containers as Tasks, without worrying what physical machine they run on. However, without access to the host How can you detect suspicious activity? Like, file changes on your Fargate tasks? Sysdig provides runtime detection and response to secure Fargate serverless containers.

Securing AWS Fargate workloads: Meeting File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) requirements

Securing AWS Fargate serverless workloads can be tricky as AWS does not provide much detail about the internal workings. After all… it’s not your business, AWS manages the scaling of underlying resources for you. :) While the security and stability of Fargate’s system is an inherent feature, Fargate follows a shared responsibility model, where you still have to take care of securing those parts specific to your application..
