How companies like Netflix, Pinterest, Yelp, Chef, and Atlassian use OPA for ‘who-and what-can-do-what’ application policy. In the cloud-native space, microservice architectures and containers are reshaping the way that enterprises build and deploy applications. They function, in a word, differently than traditional monolithic applications.

As we learned in 2020, vendors predict, and the universe laughs. But this year we polled our experts at Netskope to get their view of the year to come. Here’s how we see 2021 shaping up for networking and security, in the form of some pretty safe bets, and some harder calls. As more organizations consolidate and move away from appliance-based security technologies, IT and security teams will realize the cost savings and operational efficiencies the move to cloud brings.

We recently released volume 11 of our annual State of Software Security (SOSS) report, which analyzes the security activity and history of applications Veracode scanned during a one-year period. Giving us a view of the full lifecycle of applications, that data tells us which languages and vulnerabilities to keep an eye on, and how factors like scanning frequency can impact your remediation time.
