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. Complex business access relationships are […]

In the cloud native era, containerized infrastructure makes possible much more lightweight applications that run faster. Dozens or even hundreds of containers can be rapidly deployed and run on a host. What’s more, Kubernetes and other container orchestration platforms provide excellent security management mechanisms like load balancing, task scheduling, and fault tolerance. Therefore, in a […]

SASE (Security Access Services Edge, pronounced sassy /ˈsæsi/) is a network security service architecture introduced by Gartner in 2019. Gartner defines it as “an emerging offering combining comprehensive WAN capabilities with comprehensive network security functions (such as SWG, CASB, FWaaS, and ZTNA) to support the dynamic security access needs of digital enterprises.” In the diagram below, […]

As a kind of lightweight virtualization technology, containers run in the operating system kernel of a host. Therefore, traditional security issues remain in hosts and networks. Besides, container escape risks, container image risks, virtual network risks, and configuration risks will become new security threats facing containerized infrastructure. Attacks on Container Images With the prevalence of […]

Threat actors who specialize in ransomware are always using Double Extortion Tactics in which they not only encrypt the victim’s data but also threaten to leak sensitive data publicly unless the ransom is paid. Double Extortion Tactics first started appearing in late 2019, becoming an increasingly common trend through 2020. The attack against Allied Universal […]

After nearly 20 years of cloud computing development, we have stepped into the cloud native era. Cloud native technologies, exemplified by container, service mesh, and micro-service, are bringing disruptive changes to IT infrastructure, platforms, and application systems deployed for various sectors and are also permeating industrial Internet platforms with IT/OT convergence, 5G infrastructure with IT/CT […]

Key Findings – 5 The Number of DDoS Attacks on Healthcare, Education, and Government Sectors Increased Significantly During the COVID-19 Pandemic The healthcare sector suffered more DDoS attacks during the COVID-19 pandemic than previous years. According to statistics2, the number of attacks in each month in 2020 H2 increased year on year, with March and […]

Regulatory Policies With years of development, the blockchain industry has taken shape, but enterprise blockchain applications are still at an exploratory stage. The blockchain ecosystem contains SPs, application vendors, and users. SPs in this context provide blockchain information services, whose compliancerequirements are surely different from those for other information services (such as cloud services) due […]

The enterprise-related blockchain security landscape has two layers of meanings: enterprise blockchain security situation and blockchain-related enterprise security situation. The former refers to the security posture of enterprises that have deployed blockchain applications. In the latter case, although an enterprise does not deploy any blockchain applications, security threats facing it point to blockchains. In terms […]

This chapter analyzes security threats facing enterprise blockchains.
