Avoid the top threats facing your data repositories with GitOps:Security as Code - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

For the majority of organizations, data repositories hold our most sensitive, or mission critical, assets. When the Internet first became accessible to businesses, we all "got online", suddenly the threats our businesses face, and attack surface started to increase dramatically. While mostly only a nuisance, "SQL Slammer" in 2003 prompted the conversation within IT teams to start focusing on the protection of data repositories. Over the past 20 years attacks have become more nefarious in nature, and many organizations have suffered data breaches. In response, organizations continue to layer security tools upon security tools to try and address these security challenges, while simultaneously meeting increased audit and regulatory scrutiny related to access management. While organizations may wish to manage access in a consistent manner, there are no standards (like SAML), so features such as identity federation often require even more security tools, all of which are unique to the underlying data repository vendor. In the past decade new companies are mostly cloud native, and older companies are moving to the cloud at a rapid rate for scaling and cost benefits. Often traditional roles like IT are being deprioritized in favor of DevOps and SRE teams taking on a broader scope, including traditional DBA duties, along with the thousand other things on their plate. The Cloud Security Alliance published "Top Threats to Cloud Computing": the "Treacherous 12" in 2016, and "Egregious 11" in 2019. Since 2018 Cyral has been on a mission to help organizations safely democratize access to data repositories, using security as code patterns familiar to modern software engineering teams. Join our webinar to hear our observations of how clients are mitigating 7 of the Egregious 11, and strategies your teams can use to reduce risk to your organizational crown jewels.
