Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

Hybrid cloud infrastructures run critical business resources and are subject to some of the strictest network security controls. Irrespective of the industry and resource types, these controls broadly fall into three categories. Workloads (pods) running on Kubernetes are ephemeral in nature, and IP-based controls are no longer effective. The challenge is to enforce the organizational security controls on the workloads and Kubernetes nodes themselves.

LXC (LinuX Containers) is a OS-level virtualization technology that allows creation and running of multiple isolated Linux virtual environments (VE) on a single control host. These isolation levels or containers can be used to either sandbox specific applications, or to emulate an entirely new host. LXC uses Linux’s cgroups functionality, which was introduced in version 2.6.24 to allow the host CPU to better partition memory allocation into isolation levels called namespaces .

Focusing on these five essential workflows for secure DevOps will help you get started implementing monitoring, security, and compliance for containers and Kubernetes. You might be starting to adopt DevOps and find that it dramatically simplifies deploying applications in containers and Kubernetes. However, you probably also found that it adds a new set of complexities for managing, securing, and troubleshooting applications.

Today, we are excited to announce a faster onboarding for Kubernetes visibility and security. With the SaaS-first approach and new enhancements to the Sysdig Secure DevOps Platform, you can get results after just a five-minute setup. This release includes a new guided onboarding process, out-of-the-box dashboards as part of curated essential workflows, and a new Sysdig Essentials tier. 5 minutes to onboard secure DevOps - YouTube An error occurred.
