Become FIPS Compliant with HAProxy Enterprise on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8

Guarantee strong encryption by enabling ‘FIPS mode’ with RHEL and HAProxy Enterprise. SSL and its successor TLS are protocols that safeguard web traffic as it crosses the Internet, encrypting communication and protecting it from tampering. However, the encryption algorithms within these protocols are subject to change over time as vulnerabilities are discovered or as better encryption methods become available.

Integration of PRTG and Flowmon

Get the most out of PRTG and Flowmon by bringing them under one GUI and allowing their complementary functionalities to work together. Until recently, infrastructure and network monitoring were seen as rivals, but today they are rather viewed as complementary technologies. Seek proof with Gartner - they used to be pitted against each other in the Magic Quadrant, but that has now been replaced by the Market Guide, which explains the differences and strong points but does not compare.

Subnetting: What it is and How it Works

Subnetting isn’t hard but I often see even experienced network engineers looking for subnet calculators or trying to count in binary on their fingers. So how about a quick primer?

The New Model for Network Security: Zero Trust

The old security model, which followed the “trust but verify” method, is broken. That model granted excessive implicit trust that attackers abused, putting the organization at risk from malicious internal actors and allowing unauthorized outsiders wide-reaching access once inside. The new model, Zero Trust networking, presents an approach where the default posture is to deny access.

Benchmarking 5 Popular Ingress Controllers

Performance has never been more important than in a cloud-native world. Cloud-hosted resources cost money and a slow-loading application can cause a suboptimal ROI. Have you taken the time to tune your Kubernetes ingress controller and proxy? Many organizations don't until it's absolutely necessary, and most users will typically run a default, out-of-the-box configuration. In this demo, we benchmark five popular ingress controllers and put them head-to-head against each other with their default configurations.
