Top 5 CNAPP-Solved Security Challenges

Top 5 CNAPP-Solved Security Challenges

Traditionally, runtime security and development security have been treated as separate problems. Cloud-native application security programs consisted of many different tools, each with its own objective, control panel, and view of risk. These tools were mainly event-driven—they would only initiate scans when alerts were raised. This approach limited the sharing of data and did not facilitate the remediation of vulnerable application components in a simple, prioritized, and frictionless way that meets the security, speed, and…

GraphQL vs gRPC: Which One Creates More Secure APIs?

GraphQL vs gRPC: Which One Creates More Secure APIs?

Every request goes through the HTTP server to the GraphQL server, which builds context and runs the resolver. However, the business logic should remain separate from the resolvers, as it often changes. In such a situation, the separation allows you to implement the changes with just a few lines of code. There are three points where authentication is implemented in GraphQL: Before the HTTP server: The first point where authentication can be reached is directly…
