Organizations are modernizing IT infrastructure, restructuring teams, and accelerating application delivery with containers and Kubernetes. As with any technology, organizations are at various places within their journey. However, according to Gartner, more than 75% of global organizations will be running containerized apps in production by 2022. Chances are your team is using containers for some applications.
Today AWS unveiled the Amazon EKS Distro (EKS-D) and Sysdig is excited to deliver support for the new Kubernetes distribution with our Secure DevOps solutions. Wherever you choose to run EKS-D to run container applications, Sysdig can also be used to detect and respond to runtime threats, continuously and validate compliance, as well as monitor and troubleshoot.
In this blog, we introduce the new integration between Sysdig Secure and Red Hat® Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes that protects containers, Kubernetes, and cloud infrastructure with out-of-the-box policies based on the Falco open-source runtime security project. Organizations are quickly growing their Kubernetes footprint and need ways to achieve consistent management and security across clusters.
If you’re running containers and Kubernetes on IBM Cloud, you can now enable the key security workflows of Sysdig Secure as a service within your IBM Cloud deployments. This makes it easier for you to implement security tools and policies to ensure your containers and your Kubernetes environment are protected and running as intended. The new container and Kubernetes security features are integrated into IBM Cloud Monitoring with Sysdig and offered as an additional service plan.
Microservices and Kubernetes have completely changed the way we reason about network security. Luckily, Kubernetes network security policies (KNP) are a native mechanism to address this issue at the correct level of abstraction. Implementing a network policy is challenging, as developers and ops need to work together to define proper rules. However, the best approach is to adopt a zero trust framework for network security using Kubernetes native controls.
In support of modern application development built on CI/CD, containers and open source, Google Cloud launched Artifact Registry (now generally available), a new artifact management solution. Sysdig helps DevOps teams using Artifact Registry confidently secure the build pipeline with comprehensive image scanning that identifies container vulnerabilities and misconfigurations to reduce risk.
