Sysdig: Accelerate Threat Detection AcrossClouds and Containers
Staying on top of misconfigurations, suspicious activity and threats across multiple clouds is difficult. Amid all the alerts, which ones actually pose a threat? How can you quickly and efficiently investigate threats with the many siloed container and cloud tools? It's time for a fresh approach to unify container and cloud security. Take advantage of an open-standards approach that is radically simple to run and scale.
Sysdig: Consistent Container Vulnerability Scanningwith Red Hat & Sysdig
As modern app development moves at a fast pace and container/Kubernetes adoption has grown, security is topping the list of IT concerns. Image vulnerability scanning is a critical first line of defense for security with containers and Kubernetes. What's challenging is being able to automate security scanning for images AND achieve consistent scan results to assess risk. In this webinar, we'll share how Red Hat and Sysdig have teamed up to address both challenges so you can benefit from a higher level of accuracy, transparency, and trust in detecting CVEs.
Sysdig: Supercharging Kubernetes Labels and Metrics
Kubernetes environments are very dynamic. As a result, they can sometimes feel rather messy and disorganized. This is where labels come in. They can help you distinguish between non-infrastructure related characteristics. For example, "release" vs. "stable" or "production" vs. "dev". However, labels also have a tendency to multiply to the point where the increased cardinality is difficult to store and query. This is especially true when using Prometheus to collect data about your environment and related services.

Ransomware in 2021: What has changed? Detection and mitigation strategy
A ransomware attack is a bug that we can’t shake off. Or perhaps, it can even be called a shape-shifter that somehow finds a way into networks, no matter how many armed sentries you’ve deployed in and around your perimeter. The line between ransomware and a data breach is slowly fading. Threat actors prefer ransomware over other modes of attack because they work.
How AI Will Give IT Professionals Their Time Back
The whole world has been dreaming about the possibilities of artificial intelligence for decades. Whether it's cars capable of making critical decisions and driving themselves, or robots capable of lending a hand around the house, the potential is almost limitless. The benefits of AI aren't limited to the everyday life of the consumer, however, and IT is just one sector set to reap the rewards as software becomes ever smarter.
Monitoring Locations Update
Since June 2020, when we launched the new Monitive, we have the same monitoring network of 8 locations. It’s time to expand. The current locations are VPS servers from DigitalOcean and Linode. I like to mix it a bit, so that we don’t rely on a single provider, but not too much, since the administrative overhead of managing dozens of providers is another lesson learned in 10 years of uptime monitoring.
How to Reduce Bandwidth Consumption for Your Network?
Do you know who interacts with whom, when, and for how long and how frequently in your network? Network administrators must have clear visibility of bandwidth utilization using a robust bandwidth monitoring tool, to find out slow loading yet crucial connections, to plan out the capacity of network properly or to control the Quality of Service.
