At the show, StackRox showcased how their deep integration with #Kubernetes delivers the next generation in container security to address a company's most critical security needs.

StackRox is a Kubernetes-native container security platform that leverages Kubernetes' declarative data and built-in controls for richer context, native enforcement, and continuous hardening. Their focus on Kubernetes helps DevOps and Security teams operationalize security across the full container lifecycle - build, deploy, and runtime. As a result, customers can enable security that's built in, not bolted on, realizing the power of security as code.

VMblog visits the Solo.io booth during KubeCon 2019 in San Diego.

Solo.io is a software company that helps organizations adopt and operate innovative cloud native technologies like microservices, serverless and service mesh. They have open source and commercial technology like Gloo, a modern Envoy Proxy based API Gateway, Squash for debugging microservices, GlooShot for chaos engineering and Service Mesh Hub for installing, discovery and operation of any service mesh.

Solo.io wants to help other people use coud-native and distributed systems in their organizations without having to worry about lock-in or be forced to only use one vendor. They provide organizations with tools that are agnostic to application type, language, infrastructure, service mesh, because the reality is that many companies have very diverse IT portfolios and it will only grow as they add new technologies to their existing environment.

Just ahead of the start of KubeCon 2019 next week, StackRox is announcing the release of version 3.0 of its StackRox Kubernetes Security Platform. The company is introducing a number of new capabilities with this upgrade, enabling its customers to better harden their Kubernetes and container environments.

Kubernetes is an open-source, extensibility platform. DivvyCloud, a multi-cloud security, compliance, and governance platform, can help companies understand and identify excessive cloud risk. Organizations need to take a holistic approach to Kubernetes security and consider both the infrastructure, container runtime, network, metrics, and observability environments for managing and scaling Kubernetes clusters, as both are fundamentally intertwined.
