Grafana is a rich platform for data visualization, giving you full control over how your data should be visualized. However, this flexibility and freedom comes with some challenges from a security perspective — challenges that need to be solved to protect the data in Grafana. For years, cross-site scripting (XSS) has been among the most common web application security vulnerabilities.

The incident-io/core application uses a mixture of environment variables, config files and secrets stored in Google Secret Manager to configure the app. This is a reference guide to all the parts that make up this flow.

As the cybersecurity landscape evolves and threats become more sophisticated, organizations need to stay ahead with the right tools and strategies to protect their valuable data. Two key technologies in this domain are Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) and Security Information and Event Management (SIEM).

A unique approach to security is needed when developing cloud-native apps that use microservices, containers, and serverless computing. The specific security issues that these cloud-native architectures provide are the focus of CNAPPs. Traditional security solutions are frequently created to protect on-premises infrastructure and applications. However, new security strategies are required due to the adoption of cloud-native architectures and the migration to cloud computing.
