Security Benefits of Enhanced Cloud Visibility

A platform also provides you with the flexibility to choose the protection you need, which aligns with the security by design approach. With a platform, you can choose the cloud (hybrid or multi), the environments (public, private, virtual), and the tools necessary to securely meet your organization’s objectives. Security teams may feel over-burdened, and DevOps teams can be resistant to integrating security into their processes, as it often slows them down—that’s where platform-driven automation comes…

LDAP is commonly used in web applications for authentication, authorization, and storing and retrieving confidential data. Users typically utilize this protocol to manage user accounts, organize groups of users within an organization, and synchronize files across multiple systems. Consequently, an attack on LDAP is an assault on the backbone of…

Dependency Mapping for DevSecOps

Dependency Mapping for DevSecOps Today, DevOps teams use a staggering array of interconnected applications and infrastructure systems to build their continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines. These components are called dependencies because they depend on each other to enhance the functionality of an application. While dependencies shorten the release cycle and simplify developers’ lives, without proper security in place, these pipelines can be exposed to critical risks. In a worst-case scenario, it can cause…

TLS Connection Cryptographic Protocol Vulnerabilities

Why Your TLS Connection May Not be as Secure as You Think The Transport Layer Security (TLS) cryptographic protocol is the backbone of encryption on the Internet. It prevents eavesdropping, tampering, and message forgery between two communicating network endpoints. TLS secures many types of Internet communication, including web browsing, email, instant messaging, and voice over IP (VoIP). However, a misconfiguration in TLS can open the doors to multiple vulnerabilities. This blog post explores the risks…

An in-depth HTTP Strict Transport Security Tutorial

HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) is an Internet standard and policy that tells the browser to only interact with websites using a secure HTTPS connection. When a web browser receives an HSTS policy from a website, it automatically uses HTTPS for all future communications with that website, even if the user attempts to use HTTP. This ensures all communications between a browser and website are secure and can’t be intercepted or tampered with by an…
