How to Monitor Kubernetes Without an Agent on Every Node

LogicMonitor is an agentless monitoring solution. What we really mean by “agentless” is that we don’t require an agent on every monitored server (physical or virtual). One LogicMonitor Collector - a lightweight application that takes just seconds to install - can monitor hundreds or even thousands of devices, including servers, virtual machines, network switches, storage systems, cloud resources, containers, and more.

Streamlined Kubernetes Cluster Agent

Sematext provides a single pane of glass and machine learning powered alerts for logs, metrics, traces and digital user experience data. The new Sematext agent is fully Docker Engine and Kubernetes-aware. (Re)written in Go, it has a minimal memory and CPU footprint. It also collects Kubernetes metrics in the most optimal fashion possible.

How to identify malicious IP activity using Falco

One of the most common security use cases, is the ability to identify connections generated by malicious actors, or internal components connecting to suspicious servers (e.g malware C&Cs). In this post, we will show how to leverage the Falco engine, to identify connections made to IPs that were flagged by multiple security sensors, and are streamed as a feed to the Falco engine.

Using Terraform for container security as code with Sysdig Secure

In the following tutorial you can learn how to implement container security as code. You probably have a CI/CD pipeline to automatically rebuild your container images. What if you could define your container security as code, push it into a Git repository to version control changes and then enforce your policy in your container orchestration tool like Docker or Kubernetes using Sysdig Secure?
