The latest News and Information on Containers, Kubernetes, Docker and related technologies.
In this blog, we introduce the new integration between Sysdig Secure and Red Hat® Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes that protects containers, Kubernetes, and cloud infrastructure with out-of-the-box policies based on the Falco open-source runtime security project. Organizations are quickly growing their Kubernetes footprint and need ways to achieve consistent management and security across clusters.
If you’re running containers and Kubernetes on IBM Cloud, you can now enable the key security workflows of Sysdig Secure as a service within your IBM Cloud deployments. This makes it easier for you to implement security tools and policies to ensure your containers and your Kubernetes environment are protected and running as intended. The new container and Kubernetes security features are integrated into IBM Cloud Monitoring with Sysdig and offered as an additional service plan.
Microservices and Kubernetes have completely changed the way we reason about network security. Luckily, Kubernetes network security policies (KNP) are a native mechanism to address this issue at the correct level of abstraction. Implementing a network policy is challenging, as developers and ops need to work together to define proper rules. However, the best approach is to adopt a zero trust framework for network security using Kubernetes native controls.
Software companies large and small are embracing microservices as a superior approach to application development and management, compared to the earlier monolithic model. These software teams tend to reach out for containerization as their preferred way of packaging and shipping applications. Containers provide a lightweight encapsulation of any application, whether it is a traditional monolith or a modular microservice.
