Endpoints as well as applications such as AWS, Google Cloud, Office 365, 1Password, Slack, and thousands of others produce vast amounts of data. The volume of security data is growing, and this growth will continue for the foreseeable future. This, in turn, leads to several challenges: To solve these problems, many companies have adopted Splunk as their SIEM (security information and event management) platform.
In the past, if someone called themselves hacker chances are, they received some backlash or negative connotations. However, in recent times as the field of information is on the rise a new term ‘Ethical Hacking’ has emerged and opened many different avenues for IT and cyber security professionals.

Rego is the purpose-built declarative policy language that supports Open Policy Agent (OPA). It’s used to write policy that is easy to read and easy to write.
