As important as adding new features, app developers need to start placing more emphasis on the security aspect of the applications they design. After all, more app features mean more data residing within an app. Without proper security controls in place, that data can be vulnerable to intruders.

This post will show you how Coralogix can provide analytics and insights for your Okta logs, both performance, and security. Okta is one of the leading Identity provider platforms in the world, offering a variety of cloud services including a Single Sign-On solution to manage and secure company user authentication with 3rd party applications.

In High-Performance Computing (HPC) uptime and performance are very important. HPC is an area of computing that often focuses on research and development, supporting teams with extremely complex problems they need to solve, and heavy computation mathematical problems, such as protein folding for vaccine development. To achieve this, HPC systems rely on high performance, the equipment is expensive, and the average customer has very high demands.

To accompany Sysdig’s announcement of the first cloud-scale Prometheus monitoring offering, we had to re-architect our dashboarding experience from the ground up to support the Prometheus query language, PromQL. The query language is the standard method to query metrics within the ecosystem, and it’s an entirely new way to slice and dice metrics within Sysdig Monitor.

What is Lateral Movement? Lateral movement refers to the techniques that a cyber-attacker uses, after gaining initial access, to move deeper into a network in search of sensitive data and other high-value assets. Lateral movement techniques are widely used in sophisticated cyber-attacks such as advanced persistent threats (APTs).

In the previous blog, I discussed how IT risks can infiltrate the service desk if proper incident, problem, and change management aren’t applied. But, IT risk detection in the service desk can act as a safeguard to avoid this. It can help notify service technicians of “prohibited” or questionable items that could cause problems. Here are four reasons why IT risk detection should be incorporated and is critical for successful use of the service desk.

The increasing adoption of cloud applications and an expanding remote workforce are redefining network security. In a traditional setting, the emphasis was on perimeter-based security—assuming that everything behind the corporate firewall is safe. However, it’s clear that organizations have to rethink the philosophy of implicit trust in a corporate network.

Whilst researching recent client-side attacks our security team observed a highly-sophisticated self-cleaning and self-destructing skimmer on the popular hardware tool website Greenworks. The hack was first spotted by RapidSpike’s Client-Side Security Scanner on June 8th, and at the time of writing, the hack is still live on www.greenworkstools.com/.

Implementing and operationalizing the best practices and capabilities of DevOps into an organization is a key predictor for increased customer satisfaction, organizational productivity and profitability. Doing so successfully can be a challenging endeavour. Implementing DevOps can be particularly difficult because it oftentimes requires technology changes, process changes and a drastic change in mindset.
