In this blog post we’ll cover how to implement Docker Scanning for Jenkins with the Sysdig Secure Jenkins plugin. The plugin can be used in both freestyle and pipeline jobs to scan images and fail the build if the image fails a policy evaluation.

Exoprise recently released support for Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) 2.0 integration to enable CloudReady Single Sign-On (SSO) for user access to CloudReady. Exoprise always supported testing and monitoring web-based SSO like ADFS, Ping, & Okta but had not gotten around to finishing our integrated SAML support – well wait no longer – its here! No more letting users manage passwords in CloudReady unless you want to.

With the 2.0 release of Sysdig Secure, we’re excited to support new integrations with services Azure provides around containers and Kubernetes. Today we’ll be diving deeper into how to integrate Sysdig Secure with ACR (Azure Container Registry) to scan images for for security, compliance, and reliability.

There are nearly two billion websites live at this very moment. That’s almost two billion chances for data to be stolen and malware to be distributed. Don’t worry! Or maybe do worry, but just not too much. Protections have been developed to keep data and websites safe.

Web servers are front-end facing applications that are vital for the daily operations of businesses. They are subject to attacks such as SQL injection, malicious URL requests, and the age-old classic, denial of service (DoS) attacks. While there are specialized web application security solutions that you can (and should) deploy, auditing web server logs is just as important for ensuring your web servers are secure and always up and running.

In some performance critical situations, it makes sense to limit management software to a single CPU (core). We can do this using systemd and cgroups. CFEngine already provides systemd units on relevant platforms, we just need to tweak them. I’m using CFEngine Enterprise 3.12 on CentOS 7, but the steps should be very similar on other platforms/versions.

Connected or smart homes are becoming more commonplace as people use computer networks to control different aspects of their in-house technology. But how secure are these networks?

Insider threats are on the rise. In fact, both administrators and average employees are among the biggest security threats in an organization. When it comes to security auditing, there are two areas you need to focus on: Active Directory changes and individual user activity, particularly administrator activity.
