8 hot networking technologies for 2023

TH Author , , , ,

Despite the challenges posed by economic turmoil, epidemics, and political upheaval, network researchers are continuing to blaze new trails in innovation, performance, management, and security. In sum, 2023 is shaping up as a year of network evolution and transformation.Here are eight network technologies you will want to pay particularly close attention to.1. Unified SASE: Addresses hybrid workforce, hybrid clouds
Unified Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) tightly integrates security and networking into a single platform. The technology uses a single-pass scanning architecture combined with a unified policy that’s configured via a unified console that draws from a unified data lake. “This is significant for organizations to continue to provide a consistent and assured user experience while protecting users, devices, sites, and data amid the rapidly evolving dynamics coming in 2023,” says Kelly Ahuja, CEO of networking and cybersecurity firm Versa Networks.To read this article in full, please click here READ MORE HERE…

Google Cloud launches services to bolster open-source security, simplify zero-trust rollouts

TH Author , ,

Google Cloud is rolling out new security services designed to address enterprise challenges including securing open-source software and accelerating the adoption of zero-trust architectures.At its annual Google Cloud Security Summit, the company said it’s building on its Invisible Security effort, which promises to bake security into tools and services that enterprises and other customers use most.One example is a new service called Assured Open Source Software (Assured OSS), which is aimed at making it easier for organizations to securely manage their open-source dependencies.”Today patching security vulnerabilities in open source software often feels like a high-stakes game of whack-a-mole: fix one, and two more pop up,” wrote Sunil Potti, vice president and general manager of Google Cloud Security, in a blog about the new services. “This helps explain research done by Sonatype software that shows that there’s a 650% year-over-year increase in cyberattacks aimed at open source software (OSS) suppliers.”To read this article in full, please click here READ MORE HERE…

How to enforce password complexity on Linux

TH Author , , ,

Deploying password-quality checking on your Debian-based Linux servers can help ensure that your users assign reasonably secure passwords to their accounts, but the settings themselves can be a bit misleading.For example, setting a minimum password length of 12 characters does not necessarily mean that all your users’ passwords will actually have 12 or more characters.Let’s stroll down Complexity Boulevard and see how the settings work and examine some that are worth considering.[Get regularly scheduled insights by signing up for Network World newsletters.]

Removing Open Source Visibility Challenges for Security Operations Teams

TH Author , , , ,

  Identifying security threats early can be difficult, especially when you’re running multiple security tools across disparate business units and cloud projects. When it comes to protecting cloud-native applications, separating legitimate risks from noise and distractions is often a real challenge.   That’s why forward-thinking organizations look at things a little differently. They want to…
