Implementing a robust cybersecurity strategy is not optional; it’s essential. Organizations must adopt effective measures to protect their sensitive data and systems. Yet, while companies recognize the value of a comprehensive approach like zero trust security, implementing it can seem overwhelming. With a straightforward guide detailing how to implement zero trust, your organization can take action to protect your resources — before a major security incident happens.

In today's rapidly evolving landscape of distributed systems and microservices, understanding how applications behave in production environments has become increasingly complex. Traditional monitoring tools often fall short when it comes to providing comprehensive insights into the performance and behavior of these modern architectures.

In the realm of IT, disruptions and outages are not just inconveniences—they are critical events that can undermine the operations of businesses, impacting services, and user experiences. The landscape of IT incidents is vast, encompassing everything from minor glitches to significant outages that can halt operations and cascade into major business failures. Recognizing that there are various potential culprits for these disruptions, this blog will delve into the myriad causes of IT incidents.

Are you trying to streamline your sluggish ITIL incident management? Maybe you’re facing challenges with incident routing, lengthy resolution times, or inconsistent team communication. If so, the IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) can help you improve IT reliability and incident resolution. This blog unveils the secrets to optimizing your ITIL incident management processes to take your incident response from slow to stellar.

Automation uses software to control network resources dynamically with minimal human intervention. It can speed up services delivery and keep the network running at peak efficiency, boosting revenues and reducing costs. With this potential, one might think that automation of telecom networks would be widespread, but that is not the case. Automation in telecom lags compared to industries like transportation, shipping, and cloud computing services.

Incident response is the process of responding to and managing the aftermath of a security breach or cyber attack. It involves a systematic approach to identifying, containing, and mitigating the consequences of an incident in IT, OT or Cybersecurity, with the goal of minimizing the impact on the organization and its stakeholders. It is often exclusively related to Cybersecurity.

See the full report—Incident metrics pulse: How organizations are measuring their incident management What metrics do you look at to measure how efficient your incident response is? This is a question we get asked all the time and one we empathize with deeply. While there are several well-established incident metrics that organizations commonly use, like MTTR and raw counts of incidents, a vast number of them are ineffective, or worse still entirely misleading.

Having covered the Devicetree basics in the previous article, we now add semantics to our Devicetree using so-called bindings: For each supported type, we’ll create a corresponding binding and look at the generated output to understand how it can be used with Zephyr’s Devicetree API. Notice that we’ll only look at Zephyr’s basic Devicetree API and won’t analyze specific subsystems such as gpio in detail.

Despite the widespread adoption of Kubernetes, many DevOps teams and SREs still struggle to troubleshoot issues because of all the complexity that comes with the open source container orchestration platform. That’s why we developed Kubernetes Monitoring, an application in Grafana Cloud you can use to visualize and alert on your Kubernetes clusters.

It’s relatively easy to study the immediate impact of new releases by analyzing short-term changes in user behavior or system activity. However, this information doesn’t tell you much about the long-term viability of your application, which depends less on the novelty of major application updates and more on sustained usability.
