In the vast digital landscape, the flow of data across networks is akin to water coursing through a city’s plumbing system. Just as impurities in water can signal potential issues, deviations in network traffic, termed as network inserted anomalies, can hint at cyber threats. These anomalies range from overt signs like unauthorized access attempts to subtler indicators like unusual data transfer patterns.

According to the CNCF annual survey released in 2022, 96% of organizations are using or evaluating Kubernetes as a platform for their containerized workloads. Containerization has gained popularity as it fosters DevOps culture and provides the agility and flexibility required for faster software release cycles. Kubernetes has crossed the “adoption chasm” to become a mainstream global technology, emerging as the operating system for the cloud.
The integration of cloud-native technologies like Kubernetes with public cloud platforms like Amazon EKS has ushered in a new era of scalable and efficient application deployments. However, this combination brings forth unique security challenges, especially concerning container images. Enter Calico Cloud’s Image Assurance – a comprehensive tool designed to bolster the security of your containerized applications on Amazon EKS.
Imagine you have a perfectly working Kubernetes cluster, and when everything seems on course, you get an “ImagePullBackOff” error. Although this is a popular issue in Kubernetes, understanding and troubleshooting the root cause can be a real headache. Kubernetes is an open-source container orchestration platform originally developed by Google.
Amazon’s Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) is a popular managed Kubernetes option that allows customers to benefit from both an offloaded Kubernetes management plane, and the wide range of services that AWS offers. Managed or unmanaged, securing cluster traffic is always critical and, although AWS Security Groups can secure the cluster nodes, securing pod traffic requires something closer to the application data-path.
