In recent years, Infrastructure as Code (IaC) has emerged as a game-changer for managing IT operations. By enabling teams to define and manage infrastructure using codes, IaC offers numerous benefits, such as increased agility, scalability, and consistency. However, along with the advantages, some unique security challenges also arise that must be addressed promptly. Here in the blog, we’ll explore the best practices to maintain the integrity and reliability of the Infrastructure.

A CI/CD environment provides a foundation for the software delivery process by giving the ability to be deployed more quickly and without interruption. This notion, which is being automated and integrated, focuses on the CI/CD process. CI or continuous integration methodology, in other words, includes developers committing small changes to their code which gets authenticated, built, tested, and merged together to a common code repository, occurring on a constant basis.

Over 1 billion entrepreneurs are using Microsoft Azure worldwide, and the number is constantly increasing. However, significant power or advantage comes with great responsibility, especially when it comes to protecting sensitive information stored in the cloud.

With 60% of the world’s data stored on the cloud, the use of cloud computing is on a boom. Cloud infrastructure generates more than $178 billion in revenue per year. Massive Numbers. Right? Do you know who are the key players in this domain? It is Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure. Both companies are tech giants, but if you have to choose one among them, how will you do that? This blog will answer everything from what they exactly are, their features, origin, and differences to pricing.

Everyone and everything is available on the internet in today’s Digital Era. Nowadays, finding security and privacy of data might be tough. Having a security module is critical for this, but how do you choose and identify the proper security module? According to one IBM analysis, the average cost of a data breach in 2023 was $4.45 million, the highest amount on record. Human error is responsible for 74% of cybersecurity breaches mentioned in the Verizon report. Remember, your data is precious.

Open-source software is becoming a top choice for professionals. From completing internal tasks to supporting public-facing servers, you can see open-source applications everywhere. But before you start using such software for critical infrastructure, you must understand its pros and cons. Once you know both sides of the open-source software, it would be easy to conclude whether to use it or not.

Nowadays, most of the applications are deployed on containers and orchestrated using Kubernetes or similar technology. Due to this, the performance, stability, and scalability are highly increased. But, it also widens up the attack surface if proper security controls, techniques, tools, and practices are not followed/used. So, if your application is running on containers or if you are thinking about deploying containers, then learning about container security best practices is a must.

Organizations are increasingly adopting cloud technologies, mainly to secure their sensitive data. But are these cloud infrastructures so secure? We all know that companies worldwide are challenged by the ongoing volume of evolving security threats and by retaining qualified professionals to respond to these threats. On average, large organizations get approximately 17,000 security alerts a week, and it takes 99 days to discover security breaches.

Applications are becoming the gateway for attackers to gain unauthorized access and perform their malicious activities on end-user devices. And when such a thing happens, not only the user but also the software development firm suffers. So, now it has become utterly important to ensure the app security with the best-in-class tools available.
