This is the final article of the DevSecOps series and how it overlays onto DevOps lifecycle. In the first article, we discussed build and test in DevSecOps. In the second article, we covered securing the different components of the deploy and operate process. The final phases of the DevOps lifecycle are monitoring the deployed applications and eventually decommissioning when they are no longer needed.
Here at Lookout we have a long tradition of supporting the cybersecurity requirements of all levels of government in the U.S. This is why I’m thrilled to announce that we have received a Level 2 certification, the highest tier of authorization, from the Texas Risk and Authorization Management Program (TX-RAMP).
Databases are essential for organisations because they store data critical for the organisation to function. This data can include customer information, financial records, and contact details. Organisations need to access this data quickly and securely to make decisions and run their business. A database can help them do this by providing a centralised location for all their data.
Container-based web applications built on microservices architecture, whether public-facing or internal, are critical to businesses. This new class of applications is commonly referred to as cloud-native applications. Read on to find out why traditional WAFs are no longer enough to protect cloud-native applications and how Calico’s new workload-centric WAF solves this problem.
When it comes to client-side security, creating and deploying a content security policy (CSP) can serve as a solid starting point. To deploy a content security policy, you must first identify assets, including first- and third-party resources that will be loaded in the browser when a user visits your website. For those who haven’t heard of a content security policy (CSP), you probably know that it’s easier said than done. Let’s talk about what those steps are to deploy a CSP.
When running containers in a Kubernetes cluster, trusting the images you deploy is key to enforce security. The use of mutable images represents a risk to the secure Kubernetes deployment and highlights the importance of having a reliable mechanism to ensure you run what you expect. In this blog, you will learn step-by-step how to implement a secure Kubernetes deployment.
Have you ever looked at the curriculum offered in a Computer Science program? Across many different universities, there are some commonalities among the courses students take. Generally, there’s an introductory course in the first semester that introduces students to the world of computer science. Then over the course of subsequent semesters, students take courses about programming (including an introduction to OOP), databases, data structures, etc.
Today’s threat actors often carry out cyber attacks with the primary objective of accessing and exfiltrating sensitive information from your IT environment. Efforts to obtain this “crown jewel” information usually involve complex multi-phase cyber attacks. But another way in which sensitive data ends up in the hands of malicious actors with a lot less effort is when an organization exposes sensitive data assets in a data leak incident.
