In our recent webinar on air-gapped security, D2iQ VP of Product Dan Ciruli shared a new way of thinking about air-gapping, explaining how air-gapping could be applied in places that are not usually considered candidates for air-gapping. In an exchange of insights with Paul Nashawaty, principal analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group, Ciruli explained how the need for air-gapped security has become more critical as more organizations move to the cloud.
Among the system integrators that have chosen the D2iQ Kubernetes Platform (DKP) is Dinohead, an IT services and consulting firm that applies high levels of engineering expertise to commercial and government projects. After choosing the D2iQ Kubernetes Platform (DKP) as the basis for its container management solutions, Dinohead created production-ready Kubernetes management solutions for three U.S. Air Force Software Factories.
Cloud and cluster sprawl is a problem affecting numerous organizations, undermining the efforts that led to cloud-native Kubernetes deployments and resulting in wasted resources, inefficient operations, and poor return on investment. The best way to bring cloud and cluster sprawl under control is through centralized multi-cloud and multi-cluster fleet management. There are a number of reasons why the D2iQ Kubernetes Platform (DKP) provides unmatched fleet management capabilities.
Join us for a must-see webinar in which Kubernetes and DevSecOps experts from D2iQ and General Dynamics International Corporation (GDIT) share their insights on how to achieve zero trust security within a Kubernetes environment as part of government modernization. GDIT is among the major system integrators that have chosen D2iQ as the Kubernetes management platform on which they are creating highly secure Kubernetes solutions for their government clients.
D2iQ is pleased to offer AWS members a self-hosted free trial of the D2iQ Kubernetes Platform (DKP) on AWS. All that is required is an active AWS account. Once you qualify, you will receive all the directions and credentials you need. Surveys show that the top challenges organizations face in deploying Kubernetes and cloud-native technologies are complexity, security, and a skills gap.
One of the biggest issues related to large-scale cloud deployments is overspending. It’s no surprise that as organizations scale their cloud-native Kubernetes environments, the associated costs rise along with that growth. However, there is a disconnect between the rising expenses and how well businesses can accurately and effectively monitor and control costs in the cloud, across multiple clouds and in hybrid cloud environments.
Developers and security experts are now tasked with bolstering, extending, and adjusting cloud and Kubernetes security to protect against cyberattacks that are ever more complex, volatile, and frequent. To foil attacks and create a secure foundation for applications and infrastructure from the beginning, DevSecOps (Development, Security, and Operations) has become the trending development and operations practice. In the DevSecOps model, security becomes a shared responsibility.
Cyber security has become a top priority across all industry sectors, public and private. Securing a Kubernetes environment presents new challenges to organizations that are transitioning from traditional IT infrastructures to container management solutions in the cloud. As D2iQ VP of Product Management Dan Ciruli points out in “ Air-gapped Advantages in a Non-Air-gapped World,” surveys show a large percentage of Kubernetes environments are vulnerable to attack, as high as 87%.
D2iQ celebrates its 10th anniversary this week. What is remarkable about this decade of growth is the way the maturation of the D2iQ Kubernetes Platform (DKP) has followed the curve of Kubernetes maturation and adoption. As last week’s KubeCon Europe 2023 conference showed, the container management technology that they pioneered is going gangbusters.
The CNCF’s flagship KubeCon Europe 2023 conference in Amsterdam last week was a vibrant sold-out affair that drew more than 10,000 attendees, 58% of whom were new to the conference, with another 2,000 people on the waitlist.
