The latest News and Information on CyberSecurity for Applications, Services and Infrastructure, and related technologies.
SIEM and log management provide security to your organization; these tools allow your security analysts to track events such as potential and successful breaches of your system and react accordingly. Usually, it doesn’t matter how you ensure your organizational safety-as long as you do.
With it now being so easy to share information, we have a tendency to over-divulge. We check into public places online, tell the world when we’re going on holiday and where, and send and receive risqué photos. However, when it became public knowledge that the NSA, internet service providers, and trusted social media platforms were able to monitor our private messages, the choice to share or not to share was taken away from us.
CFEngine 3.12.0 introduced the augments key to the Augments file format. If you are not already familiar with Augments, check it out. It’s a very easy way to define classes and variables very early during agent execution, before policy.
It finally happened. At the start of DockerCon Europe and a week before KubeCon was set to take place in the U.S., researchers discovered the first major vulnerability within Kubernetes, the popular cloud container orchestration system.
Protecting your data, and that of your clients, should be central to all of your business practices. Customers entrust companies with often very sensitive data, and it should be used and stored safely. Cyber security should be a priority in companies of any size, but when you’re a small business without a big security budget, how do you keep yourself protected?
Just as we were getting ready to launch our Data Breach Monitor, we heard the unfortunate news that fellow Yorkshire based business Vision Direct had suffered a malware attack, which resulted in the loss of financial data of around 6,600 customers. So we asked ourselves, could we have detected the same attack using our new monitor? The only way to find out was to infect a website and see what would happen…
Over the past four years we’ve helped hundreds of organizations run reliable, secure, and compliant Kubernetes and Openshift clusters. Some of the key themes we’ve seen from organizations that have successfully grown their Kubernetes footprint are: they have immaculate labeling, understand how to leverage internal Kubernetes features to harden their platform, and understand what developers need access to and manage it with RBAC and namespaces.
Container security orchestration allows to define within your security policy how you are going to respond to your different container security incidents. These responses can be automated in what is called security playbooks. This way, you can define and orchestrate multiple workflows involving different software both for sourcing and responding. This is how Falco and Splunk Phantom can be integrated together to do this.
