Stand to gain from the Skyrocketing Container Adoption

Docker’s container format is perhaps the most rapidly and widely adopted datacenter technology in history. This application delivery technology, based on ideas that have been around for more than a decade, is now driving an inexorable transformation of how modern applications are built, delivered and deployed in the enterprise. In a survey done by Diamante of IT leaders, the data suggests something is very clearly starting to change in terms of what IT organizations consider to be their default platform for deploying modern applications.

• Nearly half (47 percent) of IT leaders surveyed said they plan to deploy containers in a production environment, while another 12 percent say they already have.

Locuz Container Security:

At Locuz we give you an expert perspective on security throughout the container application stack and life cycle which provides Enterprise level continuous container security. In general, continuous container security for the enterprise is about:

• Securing the container pipeline and the application
• Securing the container deployment environment(s) and infrastructure
• Integrating with enterprise security tools and meeting or enhancing existing security policies

With Locuz, you get network intrusion detection solution and log management for containersthat has completeupkeep for your applications hosted on AWS, Azure, Oracle, or GCP. With this we enable you to detect and visualize threats in real-time for any workload in any container (Docker, Kubernetes,CoreOS, Elastic Beanstalk or Elastic Container Service). On top of this, our security professionals watch over your environment 24/7 - so you're never on your own.

An End to End Container Lifecycle Security

• Full Lifecycle Image Scanning : Blazing fast scanning integrated into the CI/CD pipeline for build-time, registry, and run-time. Enable admission controls & CIS Benchmarks for additional protections.
• Run-Time Security without Compromise : Prevent exploits & breakouts by detecting & blocking suspicious process, syscall and file system activity, then preventing damage with a container firewall.
• The Only True Layer 7 Container Firewall : Prevent attacks with cloud-native automated segmentation, deep packet inspection (DPI) and attack detection for DDoS, DNS, SQL Injection, & DLP breaches.

Industrial IoT (IIoT) and Operational Technology (OT) Security challenges

While industrial systems are becoming more and more connected, they are also being exposed to more vulnerabilities. The switch from closed to open systems, also referred to as the IT-OT convergence, inbreeding new security threats that need to be addressed.

The key most important reasons for organizations who are in the look out to safeguard their industrial networks are the high costing industrial equipment and the fear of causing damage to communities and economies that an attack could generate. The strongest negative impact of a breach in an industrial set up could even mean casualties in a worst-case scenario. The top three challenges of industrial OT :

Erosion of Network Architecture

Two of the major challenges in securing industrial environments have been initial design and ongoing maintenance. What may have been a solid design to begin with is eroded through ad hoc updates and individual changes to hardware and machinery without consideration for the broader network impact.This kind of organic growth has led to miscalculations of expanding networks and the introduction of wireless communication in a standalone fashion, without consideration of the impact to the original security design. These uncontrolled or poorly controlled OT network evolutions have, in many cases, over time led to weak or inadequate network and systems security.

Pervasive Legacy Systems

Legacy components are not restricted to isolated network segments but have now been consolidated into the IT operational environment. From a security perspective, this is potentially dangerous as many devices may have historical vulnerabilities or weaknesses that have not been patched and updated, or it may be that patches are not even available due to the age of the equipment.

Insecure Operational Protocols

Many industrial control protocols, particularly those that are serial based, were designed without inherent strong security requirements. Furthermore, their operation was often within an assumed secure network. In addition to any inherent weaknesses or vulnerabilities, their operational environment may not have been designed with secured access control in mind.

To mitigate such farfetched repercussions and challenges, it is in the best interest of an industrial organization to security its IT & OT technology. An effective OT Security strategy puts in place solutions that allow complete visibility of network control traffic and establishing the right security policies and thus does not disrupt operations or risk non-compliance. A good OT Security strategy protects processes, people and profit while significantly reducing security vulnerabilities and incidents.

Secure Your Mobile Assets and Applications

Is your Mobile Security Secure Enough?

Mobility is no longer a trend – it’s how business gets done today. With employees using multiple mobile devices and the availability of thousands of mobile apps, employees can work whenever and wherever they choose. This also means IT now has the dual challenge of supporting mobile productivity and protecting corporate data.

Today over 50 percent of business PCs are mobile, and the increase in Internet of Things (IoT) devices poses new challenges to network security. Therefore it’s imperative for enterprise IT to evolve itself and care for mobile security.

Mobile device security is the full protection of data on portable devices and the network connected to the devices. Securing mobile devices requires a unified and multi-layered approach.

Components to Mobile Security

To enhance your mobile life instead of getting overwhelmed by all of the mobile devices on your network as workplaces become increasingly mobile. It is important to understand each of the components that together builds for a robust mobile security. Here’s a look at some of the solutions that can remove the mobile threat for your enterprise.

• VPN : A virtual private network, or VPN, is how a device connects to a network. This encrypted connection helps ensure that sensitive data is transmitted safely without getting compromised. It prevents unauthorized people from snooping on the traffic and allows the user to conduct remote work safely.
• Secure web gateway : Secure web gateways provide powerful, overarching cloud security. By integrating security with the cloud, you can identify an attack on one location and immediately prevent it at other branches.
• Endpoint Security : As organizations embrace flexible and mobile workforces, they must deploy networks that allow remote access. Endpoint security solutions protect corporations by monitoring the files and processes on every mobile device that accesses a network, scanning continuously for malicious patterns, it identifies threats early.
• Email Security : While email is the most important tool for business communication to run smoothly it is also the leading attack route for security breaches. Good email security includes advanced threat protection capabilities that detect, block, and remediate threats faster; prevent data loss; and secure important information in transit with end-to-end encryption.
• Cloud Access Security Broker : Your network must secure where and how your employees work, including in the cloud. You will need a cloud access security broker (CASB), a tool that functions as a gateway between on-premises infrastructure and cloud applications
