Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

Cloud security operates on a different paradigm compared to traditional IT security. For example, it involves multiple contextual layers such as cloud services, containers and Kubernetes that require specialized insights. The challenge is even harder when the organization is affected by compliance requirements, and is compounded by the sheer volume of data that becomes a major concern for any organization. Failing to effectively manage it leads to costly inefficiencies and risks.

At Teleport we love modern infrastructure and open-source software, but don't like static credentials and passwords. This created a challenge for us when deploying Temporal, an open-source workflow automation software on EKS: Temporal always requires a password to authenticate to the backend RDS database. To solve this problem, we turned to Teleport Machine & Workload Identity.

Implement AI-driven security analytics faster on Elastic Cloud Serverless, the easiest way to harness the innovations of Elastic Security Elastic Security on Elastic Cloud Serverless is now generally available. You can launch a deployment in minutes — no prior experience required. Serverless projects are fully managed, minimizing total cost of ownership (TCO) and providing immediate access to the powerful features of the Elastic Search AI Platform and Elastic Security.

The field of IT security has never been more complex or demanding. As organizations race to adopt digital technologies and modernize their infrastructures, they inadvertently create chaos that overwhelms security teams. This chaos is driven by three critical vectors: the rapid expansion of the attack surface, continual changes to existing assets, and the relentless emergence of new security threats.

When the tools in your security stack work together, it reduces administration overhead, lowers costs, and increases protection across your organization. That’s why we’ve spent the last year deepening our partnership and product integrations with AWS and other security providers in their ecosystem.

If you missed it, over the summer months launched our product on the AWS Marketplace with the promise to deliver the fastest “time-to-security” in the industry for new AWS users. We’ve also officially joined the AWS Partner Network (APN) as a validated AWS partner. This means we went through the AWS Foundational Technical Review (FTR). We are FTR-approved* and meet the well-architected best practices enforced by AWS, not to brag. ;) Psst.

Most modern organizations have complex IT infrastructures made up of various components like Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), public cloud, and sometimes hybrid environments. While these infrastructures bring significant benefits, including improved scalability, flexibility, and cost savings, increasing complexity has made it challenging for security teams to secure the data stored in these environments adequately.

One of the most important pillars of a well-architected framework is security. Thus, it is important to follow these AWS security best practices, organized by service, to prevent unnecessary security situations. So, you’ve got a problem to solve and turned to AWS to build and host your solution. You create your account and now you’re all set up to brew some coffee and sit down at your workstation to architect, code, build, and deploy. Except, you aren’t.
