ChatGPT as your Falco Consultant

Can OpenAI ChatGPT become a contributor for an open source project like Falco? Is this the end of GitHub Copilot? ChatGPT is SO trendy that I overheard my grandma talking about it to her friends the other day. We’re seeing more and more uses of this AI for real world applications. That made us think… Falco, the first runtime security project to join CNCF as an incubation-level project, needs contributors.

Navigating the security challenges of multi-tenancy in a cloud environment

Multi-tenancy can maximize the number of resources that are utilized in a cluster by sharing these resources between different groups, teams, or customers. However, boundaries must be placed to avoid problems associated with resource-sharing. On top of that, in a multi-tenant cluster, the number of security policies might gradually grow to the point where a slight misconfiguration could cause major security problems, performance issues, and service disruptions.

What Is Kubernetes Observability and Why It's Critical for Securing Your Clusters

Kubernetes observability refers to the ability to monitor and diagnose the performance and behavior of a Kubernetes cluster and its applications. This includes monitoring resource usage, tracking the status of pods and deployments, and identifying and troubleshooting errors. Observability tools for Kubernetes typically include metrics, logging, and tracing capabilities.

Secure your Kubernetes clusters with the Kubescape Docker extension

Container adoption in enterprises continues to grow, and Kubernetes has become the de facto standard for deploying and operating containerized applications. At the same time, security is shifting left and should be addressed earlier in the software development lifecycle (SDLC). Security has morphed from being a static gateway at the end of the development process to something that (ideally) is embedded every step of the way. This can potentially increase the effort for engineering and DevOps teams.

Vulnerability Prioritization - Combating Developer Fatigue

We are in early 2023, and we have over 2700 new vulnerabilities registered in CVE. It is still a challenge for developers to endure the fatigue of continually vulnerability prioritization and mitigating new threats. Our findings in the Sysdig 2023 Cloud-Native Security and Container Usage Report provide signs of hope for overburdened developers, as the data showed opportunities to focus remediation efforts on vulnerable packages loaded at runtime.

The MITRE ATT&CK framework explained: Discerning a threat actor's mindset

This is part 2 of the blog series on the MITRE ATT&CK framework for container security, where I explain and discuss the MITRE ATT&CK framework. For those who are not familiar with what the MITRE framework is, I encourage you to read part 1. In my previous blog post, I explained the first four stages of the MITRE ATT&CK framework and the tactics used by adversaries to gain a foothold in the network or the environment within a containerized application. What happens next?
