Three Key Findings from Red Hat’s 2023 State of Kubernetes Security Report

Earlier this month, Red Hat released its The State of Kubernetes Security for 2023 report. This annual report explores the specific security risks organizations face regarding cloud-native development, including risks to their software supply chain, and how they mitigate these risks…

Exploring the Cyber Risks of Microservices

As the need to develop applications more quickly – at the pace of innovation – has increased and as government agencies have looked to introduce more scalability into the application development process, software development teams have moved away from developing…

 

 

 

We launched GovDevSecOpsHub to focus on the next evolution of application development, DevSecOps, which brings cybersecurity teams and tools into the development process sooner so that applications are more secure and safeguarded against cyber threats.

In  GovDevSecOpsHub we’ll look at the evolution from traditional software and application development to the DevOps model. We’ll talk about the importance of moving from DevOps to DevSecOps. We’ll highlight the technologies and cultural changes necessary to make this shift happen. And we’ll profile government organizations and executives that are the “boots on the ground” as the government pivots towards the DevSecOps model.
