As organizations have transitioned from legacy IT infrastructure to cloud-native, ephemeral modern infrastructure, the needs of how privileged access is handled have shifted, too. Modern infrastructure presents unique challenges that legacy Privileged Access Management (PAM) tools, originally architected for more static environments, weren’t designed to handle. In this post, we explore why characteristics of modern infrastructure require a modern approach to PAM.

Transport Layer Security (TLS) is a cryptographic protocol designed to provide secure communication between web browsers and servers. Many IP-based protocols such as HTTPS, SMTP, POP3, and FTP support TLS. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), on the other hand, is a protocol used to establish an encrypted link between web browsers and servers. It uses symmetric cryptography to encrypt the data transmitted. Encryption keys are based on shared secret negotiation at the beginning of any communication session.

As Kubernetes adoption continues to grow, Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) has become a popular choice for deploying and managing containerized applications. To meet the increasing demand for data protection, Microsoft has introduced native backup solutions for AKS. However, there are some gaps in the native AKS backup capabilities that may not fully address the needs of enterprises and Managed Service Providers (MSPs), especially those with diverse environments.

Did you know that in 2023, the average data breach cost companies a whopping $4.45 million? Ouch! And with development cycles spinning faster than a hyper-caffeinated hamster, those risks are only multiplying. So how do you keep security from becoming a costly afterthought in this high-speed race? Enter Security as Code (SaC) – your secret weapon for weaving security into the very fabric of your development process.
