To release reasonably secure products, vendors must integrate software security processes throughout all stages of the software development lifecycle. That would include product architecture and design; implementation and verification; deployment and monitoring in the field; and back again to design to address the changing threat landscape, market needs, and product issues.

Ivanti Cloud Service Appliance (CSA) 4.6 is now available for customers to download. Like our previous CSA 4.5 release, this CSA 4.6 release addresses the situation where CentOS has announced an EOL (or change) to the CentOS 8 operating system that we are using. As a result of this, we have adjusted and built CSA 4.6 on CentOS 7, which should provide us with a stable OS platform into the future.

Monitoring AWS Lambda performance plays a crucial part in your everyday AWS Lambda usage. Monitoring helps you identify any performance issues, and it can also send you alerts and notify you of anything you might need to know.

We all intuitively know what a distributed network is, and the term is pretty common in conversation. But when you start to think about a precise definition, or even search for one online, things get fuzzy. What exactly makes a network distributed? Is a distributed network fundamentally different from a decentralized network?

In a recent survey of hybrid cloud decision makers, we uncovered a disconcerting trend. The vast majority of respondents reported that they are confident in their existing tools and capabilities for a whole host of activities necessary to manage cloud performance and spend … and yet they don’t have many of the tools that are actually needed to perform those tasks.
