When deploying cloud-native applications to a hybrid and multi-cloud environment that is protected by traditional perimeter-based firewalls, such as Palo Alto Networks (PAN) Panorama, you need to work within the confines of your existing IT security architecture. For applications that communicate with external resources outside the Kubernetes cluster, a traditional firewall is typically going to be part of that communication.

As infrastructures and workloads transition to cloud and teams adopt a CI/CD development process, there is a new paradigm shift: infrastructure is becoming code. This approach of treating infrastructure as code (IaC) is incredibly powerful, brings us many advantages, and enables transformative concepts like immutability. We define infrastructures in a declarative way and version them using the same source code control tools (in particular git) that we use for our application code.

Looking to 2022, cybersecurity and business leaders are looking forward to digital and in-person conferences. Cybersecurity conferences offer everyone a way to connect, learn, and share. We’ve compiled a comprehensive, chronological list of cybersecurity conferences that you want to attend in 2022.

Five months ago, we decided to release a posture management solution for K8s and make it open source for everyone to enjoy it.

No matter how you slice it, the use of containers and Kubernetes continues to swell. And recent high profile vulnerabilities-that-shall-not-be-named have shown us how important container security is for an overall application security program. Protecting your own code, your dependencies, and the containerized services you use are all a must.

Fairwinds Insights is Kubernetes governance and security software that enables DevOps teams to monitor and prevent configuration problems in their infrastructure and applications. Not only does Fairwinds simplify Kubernetes complexity, but it also reduces risk by surfacing security and reliability issues in your Kubernetes clusters.

Without a doubt, Kubernetes is the most prominent container orchestration tool. And you’ve probably noticed that many positions available to IT professionals require Kubernetes experience. One way to gain or prove your Kubernetes knowledge is by becoming a Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA). This certification is issued by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) in collaboration with the Linux Foundation. They offer three Kubernetes related certifications.

GKE Autopilot from Google Cloud is a mode of operation in Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) designed to simplify working with Kubernetes in the cloud. Pairing secure DevOps practices with GKE Autopilot will help you and your teams ensure the security, compliance, and performance of your workloads and applications. Sysdig has collaborated with Google Cloud to enable visibility and security for GKE Autopilot and your containers.
