CEL and Kubescape: transforming Kubernetes admission control

Admission control is a crucial part of the Kubernetes security, enabling the approval or modification of API objects as they are submitted to the server.

Why AI Guardrails Need Session-Level Monitoring: Stopping Threats That Slip Through the Cracks

AI guardrails are vital for ensuring the safe and responsible use of AI/large language models (LLMs).

What Is a Password Generator?

A password generator is an online tool that automatically creates strong, random passwords at the click of a button. To create unique passwords, a password generator combines a variety of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers and symbols.
