Cloud native security is the development trend of cloud security in the coming years. On the one hand, inherent security of cloud native is worthy of in-depth study. On the other hand, with the reconstruction and upgrade of infrastructure, there is a clear trend towards the integration of cloud native technologies...

Top Four Risks When Using Serverless Function in Cloud Native Applications
Serverless is a new computing mode of the cloud native architecture, mainly taking the form of function as a service (FaaS). For the serverless mode, developers will write a function and define when and how to invoke it and then the function will run in the server provided by the...
API Security in Cloud Native Applications
Cloud native applications, based on the microservice architecture, interact with each other by sending requests or response through APIs. Arguably, API communications play an essential role in interactions of cloud native applications. Therefore, API security is an indispensable part of cloud native application security. API-related security issues shown below have...
INFRAHALT: NicheStack TCP/IP Stack High-Risk Vulnerabilities Threat Alert
Overview Recently, researchers from JFrog and Forescout released a joint report to publicly disclose 14 security vulnerabilities (collectively referred to as INFRA:HALT) in the NicheStack TCP/IP stack, announcing that these vulnerabilities could lead to remote code execution, denial of service, information disclosure, TCP spoofing, or DNS cache poisoning. Researchers noted...
Zero-Trust Cloud Native Network Security Enabled by Micro-segmentation
Traditional networks or virtual networks have employed network segregation technologies like VLAN or VPC which are, however, more often used for segregation of deterministic networks or tenant networks. In cloud native environments, containers or microservices have a shorter lifecycle and change more frequently compared with traditional networks or tenant networks....
