Five worthy reads is a regular column on five noteworthy items we’ve discovered while researching trending and timeless topics. This week, we explore how cyber threat intelligence can aid organizations. Enterprises often end up spending a great deal of money on monitoring and wiring their perimeter with defensive security solutions. But is merely incorporating security solutions like firewalls, antivirus software, intrusion detection systems, web filtering, and encryption enough?

OpsRamp controls and tracks access to modern hybrid infrastructure with secure remote consoles. Remote consoles help IT pros gain access to distributed resources and execute tasks on the target device/resource. All remote sessions are recorded for playback so that IT teams can use these session recordings for audit compliance, change management, and training.

“I’d like to pay with my credit card.” “Sure! Let me have your card. Could I also get your full name, phone number, and address?” “Yeah. It’s Logan Lovato, and I live at 1 Lemon Street, Anaheim. My number is 714.308.75xx.” This was a common occurence at retail stores across the US in the not too distant past. People shared their information and didn’t think much about it.

In this post we are going to demonstrate how to deploy a Kubernetes autoscaler using a third party metrics provider. You will learn how to expose any custom metric directly through the Kubernetes API implementing an extension service.

The radical shift towards DevOps and the continuous everything movement have changed how organizations develop and deploy software. As the consolidation and standardization of continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) processes and tools occur in the enterprise, a standardized DevOps model helps organizations deliver faster software functionality at a large scale.

In the first two articles in this series about using serverless on an open source platform, I described how to get started with serverless platforms and how to write functions in popular languages and build components using containers on Apache OpenWhisk.Here in the third article, I’ll walk you through enabling serverless in your Kubernetes environment.

We are thrilled to announce that we now offer Single Sign-On (SSO) support for ALL customers on the CHAOSSEARCH platform. You can now integrate your existing identity provider with CHAOSSEACH and have your users access the platform without needing to manage a separate set of credentials.

Censorship appears to be increasingly tough not only in countries, which we traditionally view as authoritarian (Iran, North Korea, China, Russia, etc.) but in Western ones as well. It is not uncommon anymore for users from around the globe to find themselves unable to access their favorite resources.

Exoprise recently released two new CloudReady sensors for monitoring Transport Layer Security (TLS), aka Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), connections end-to-end. TLS/SSL is the foundation for just about every web request and transaction across the Internet today. Arguably, SSL is as important as TCP/IP itself to the formation of our modern-day Internet, SaaS and Cloud world.

Kubernetes is the de facto open source container orchestration tool for enterprises. It provides application deployment, scaling, container management, and other capabilities, and it enables enterprises to optimize hardware resource utilization and increase production uptime through fault-tolerant functionality at speed. The project was initially developed by Google, which donated the project to the Cloud-Native Computing Foundation. In 2018, it became the first CNCF project to graduate.
