Neglecting security is a rookie mistake. However, DevOps teams struggle to make it a priority in the quest to be continuously faster. Protecting your app from the ground up is challenging, so you need the right tools to improve your debugging process in development and production. To enhance security testing, developers can use SAST tools, which analyze program source code to identify security vulnerabilities, and DAST tools, which come up in later development phases in a running application.

During the COVID-19 Pandemic, it was reported that cybercrime increased by 600%. As the world has become more reliant on technology, whether for personal life or for business, cyberattacks have risen with it. Unfortunately, there are a lot of cybersecurity misconceptions that prevent businesses from adequately preparing for and responding to these attacks. More time and resources need to be spent protecting this critical information.

When security incidents happen, it’s crucial for software providers and users alike to take swift and effective action. In response to our recent security incident, we witnessed firsthand how an open and collaborative effort between our customers, technology partners, and engineering teams helped to contain the threat and mitigate risk of unauthorized access to customer systems.

This blog will cover what the Calico/VPP dataplane is and demonstrate the performance and flexibility advantages of using the VPP dataplane through a benchmarking setup. By the end of this blog post, you will have a clear understanding of how Calico/VPP dataplane, with the help of DPDK and accelerated memif interfaces, can provide high throughput and low-latency Kubernetes cluster networking for your environment.

The advent of the modern MDM has given organizations unprecedented agility when it comes to their remote support. Instead of deploying engineers to fix hardware devices on-site as they did before, they can now troubleshoot and fix them entirely remotely. While this kind of remote support provides exponential value to organizations and their employees and customers, it also presents another major challenge: privacy.
