Observability

The Rise of Network Observability: A Strategic Technology Enabler

The current era of distributed work requires delivery of truly borderless digital applications and services powered by the cloud, delivered via a secure network centered on high performance and best in class user experience. It is essential that your organization has visibility and real-time insights into the data flow across the extended enterprise network as well as the ability to apply the necessary People, Process & Technology safeguards for data in transit and rest.

Teleport delivers "crown jewel observability" with access control monitoring for critical infrastructure resources

New updates to Teleport Policy enable security professionals to cut through the noise of alert fatigue, with "Crown Jewel" tagging and monitoring for access variances in critical resources.

Observability Meets Security: Tracing that Connection

As outlined in a previous post, OpenTelemetry and Splunk Observability Cloud can provide great visibility when security teams investigate activity in modern environments. In this post, we look at another aspect of this visibility: how you can use traces to see directly into the workings of an application to find a potential threat. Let’s imagine we’re the security analyst, and a message comes across from the Security Operations Center (SOC).

Embracing Observability Tools to Empower Security Incident Response

Companies spend a huge amount of their budget trying to build, manage, and protect cloud environments. Since there is no industry standard for sharing data feeds between development and security, each team is on an island trying to figure out how to keep their side of the room clean. The most robust security incident response teams understand the incredible value of using observability telemetry for security workflows, but are unsure how to make it happen in practice.

How can unifying observability and security strengthen your business?

Bolster your organization’s observability and security capabilities on one platform with AI, anomaly detection, and enhanced attack discovery Organizations in today’s digital landscape are increasingly concerned about service availability and safeguarding their software from malicious tampering and compromise. The traditional security and observability tools often operate in silos, leading to fragmented views and delayed responses to incidents.

3 observability best practices for improved security in cloud-native applications

Observability, especially in the context of cloud-native applications, is important for several reasons. First and foremost is security. By design, cloud-native applications rely on multiple, dynamic, distributed, and highly ephemeral components or microservices, with each microservice operating and scaling independently to deliver the application functionality.

Redact sensitive data from your logs on-prem by using Observability Pipelines

As your business evolves to serve more users, your applications and infrastructure will generate an increasing volume of logs, which may contain sensitive data such as credit card numbers, IP addresses, and tokens. When you collect sensitive data, you may be subject to laws such as GDPR—which restricts the transfer of personal data across borders, and you may face legal consequences if this data is exposed outside your infrastructure.

5 reasons why observability and security work well together

Site reliability engineers (SREs) and security analysts — despite having very different roles — share a lot of the same goals. They both employ proactive monitoring and incident response strategies to identify and address potential issues before they become service impacting. They also both prioritize organizational stability and resilience, aiming to minimize downtime and disruptions.

Securing the Modern Enterprise: Unified Microsegmentation and Observability with Calico

In the ever-evolving landscape of enterprise networks, the traditional approach of relying on a fortified perimeter to secure internal assets faces significant challenges. The dichotomy of a trusted internal network and an untrusted external environment, enforced by perimeter defenses, has been a longstanding strategy.
