Enabling enclaves-based security is key for enterprise cloud adoption General availability of Nitro Enclaves, recently announced by AWS, is Amazon’s way of delivering confidential computing to its customers. Following similar announcements by Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud, AWS announcement further confirms growing demand for additional runtime protection of customer’s data and other intellectual properties.
Modern languages like Python, NodeJS, and Go make it easy to handle concurrent requests for multiple customers at the same time by using threads or goroutines. Such services seem very cost effective because one process can handle hundreds or thousands of tenants. However, this efficiency comes at a hidden, steep price. When language runtime scheduling breaks down, one tenant can cause an outage for everyone.

This blog post marks an important milestone for us! Just four years ago, as we grew frustrated with the state of SSH server access, Teleport was born. Eventually it grew way bigger than just SSH access, as our users want to use the same access workflow for all layers of their stacks. And today we’re announcing another way to use Teleport: as a hosted offering. Let’s dig deeper!
Over the past few years enterprises and industry leaders have been steadily adopting microservices to drive their business forward. At this point, companies like Amazon, and Google, to name a few, must agree that the microservices style of architecture is much more than a passing trend. Along with the many benefits of updating monolith systems to microservices architecture, there are also new security challenges that organizations need to address.
From containerized workloads to microservice architectures, developers are rapidly adopting new technology that allows organizations to scale their products at unprecedented rates. In order to make sense of these complex deployments, many teams are abstracting applications away from the environments in which they run. Because of this trade-off, developers and security teams lose the access to the unified context from infrastructure to application needed to fully secure their services.
