Whether you are running your workloads on a single platform or have embraced a hybrid cloud approach, integrating host security alongside visibility and protection for containers and serverless provides incredible benefits.
 
Protecting standalone VMs, especially for teams managing their hosts like cattle rather than pets, requires a modern security approach; integrating vulnerability management and compliance across the application lifecycle while combining powerful runtime protection and microsegmentation capabilities. 
 
 In this webinar, we will cover: 

•How VMs fit into the cloud native continuum
•Security requirements for vulnerability management and compliance across the workload lifecycle 
•Runtime protection demo, covering application control, file integrity monitoring, host forensics, and network micro-segmentation

Host Security and Cloud Workload Protection for the Modern Enterprise

Increasingly, organizations are looking to containers and microservices to provide the agility and scalability needed to satisfy their customers. While doing so, modern enterprises also need the ability to demonstrate and maintain compliance and be aware of common violations and costs associated with compliance issues.

The number one business issue CISOs face, at a macro level, is managing an organization's cyber risk. You can state this in a bunch of different ways, but everything the CISO does is to manage risk to information in a digital context.CIS plays a vital role in providing organizations with clear, specific, and measurable compliance requirements for the cloud, native stack and Twistlock provides world-class cloud native cybersecurity.

Cloud Native: Infrastructure Trends, Security Challenges, and Best Practices

Service meshes are one of the newest innovations in the world of microservices and cloud-native computing. They’re a critical tool for making microservices applications feasible to implement and manage.

At the same time, however, service meshes — like all components of the software stack — must be properly secured. Without sufficient security oversight, service meshes run the risk of becoming a vector for attack into software infrastructure, as well as a compliance liability.

Register now to learn more about:

•How service meshes work and which security considerations apply to them
•Why Twistlock identified Istio compliance checks as an important gap to address for the cloud native community
•The official Twistlock compliance checks for Istio, including proper configurations, risk severity, major threats, and countermeasures

Securing the Istio Service Mesh: Twistlock Compliance Checks

In this webinar, learn a helpful model of viewing the different cloud-native technologies as a continuum, to address different scenarios and efficiently choose which combination of technologies work best for running different workloads. 

The continuum starts with bare metal and VMs on the left, continues into “light” hypervisors (like Canonical’s LXD), and extends into containers and services like AWS Fargate and then, ultimately, serverless. Technologies to the left provide the most isolation and control with the tradeoff of greater management and performance overhead. Those to the right facilitate more agile development and app density with the tradeoff of less control.

The Continuum of Cloud Native Topologies

If you ask DevOps engineers about the benefits of containers and microservices, their responses will center on the agility, modularity, and scalability that microservices-based architectures provide.
Security is a crucial and often overlooked advantage of migrating to containers and microservices. 

Containers allow enterprise to secure applications and environments at a more granular and nuanced level. They also empower enterprises to identify and resolve potential security threats before they disrupt workflows, rather than having to adopt a defensive stance oriented around addressing attacks once they are fully underway. 

Watch this webinar to learn:

•Challenges with traditional security strategies

•What a proactive approach to security for a microservices-based environment looks like

•How your organization can adopt a proactive security stance when it makes the migration to containers.

Operationalizing DevSecOps: 7 Best Practices for Cloud Native Applications

As more organizations deploy containers across the enterprise, network security needs to become more automated and less dependent on static configurations. However, organizations’ network security practices have often not kept pace with the evolution of cloud native technology, and expertise on network security for containers and microservices is lacking.

Companies often rely primarily on static perimeter based defenses and manually defined VLANs which don’t work well in a cloud native environments because there is no reliable perimeter.

In this session, Paul Fox, Principal Solution Architect at Twistlock, will:
• Explain why cloud native environments require a new approach for firewalls
• Share specific tactics IT and security teams can implement to ensure security across the stack
• Conduct a live demonstration of Windows to linux container network traffic firewalling
