Could electric vehicles present a Cybersecurity risk to the grid?

With many countries now participating in the Paris Agreement to address climate change, coupled with the rising popularity of electric vehicles, it is expected that 125 million electric cars will be on the road worldwide by 2030. But these cars, although beneficial to the environment, come with cybersecurity risks. According to experts, security concerns should be addressed before a massive rollout of electric vehicles take place.

2021 Predictions: The Year that Cloud-Native Transforms the IT Core

Continued Kubernetes adoption, unified authorization, DevSecOps redefined, open source dominance and more key changes for the enterprise Amid a year of unprecedented global change, it may seem incautious at best to make confident predictions about the future of cloud-native business. However, there are strong indications of the trends that 2021 will hold — precisely because they are predicated on significant enterprise change.

What is the best way to protect my PHP code?

The simple answer is to use a compiled code tool and implement as many security features as possible, but sometimes time can be a factor and other matters take precedence so less time goes into security. If your code is valuable then you really should spend time adding more layers of code protection (obfuscation, script licensing, encryption) and there is one feature in particular which sets ionCube apart from other tools, offers advanced protection for your PHP code and is fairly quick to setup.

Nature vs. Nurture Tip 2: Scan Frequently and Consistently

In our first blog in this series, Nature vs. Nurture Tip 1: Using SAST With DAST, we discussed how this year’s State of Software Security (SOSS) report looked at how both “nature” and “nurture” contribute to the time it takes to close out a security flaw. We found that the “nature” of applications – like size or age – can have a negative effect on how long it takes to remediate a security flaw.

Gazing into the crystal ball: A look at 2021 software security predictions

Experts share their 2021 software security predictions about DevSecOps adoption, the risks of social engineering and ransomware, cloud adoption, and more. Anybody who made predictions a year ago about 2020 could be forgiven for feeling a bit like the TV weather forecaster who got a note from an angry viewer telling him, “I just shoveled six inches of ‘partly cloudy’ off my driveway.”

Customized Autoscaling: Minimize Your Cloud Cost

Kubernetes clusters have become the go-to solution for hosting applications in the cloud. Most cloud providers offer Kubernetes services, such as the Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS), or Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). But are you spending too much on compute resources in the cloud? Is your load pattern complex and difficult to predict? Is the load growing inconsistently or are you running applications on-demand that could cause sudden bursts?
