Enterprise Multi-Cloud Backbone with Aviatrix Jul 01, 2019

Show notes

Our podcast guest believes the world changed “on a Tuesday" six months ago when the enterprise move to the cloud became imperative, not just an aspirational goal. That eureka moment was enough to pull Steve Mullaney off the sidelines and back into the game as CEO of Aviatrix after successful executive gigs at Palo Alto Networks and Nicira. Go-build might be a wonderful approach for cloud-native apps, but enterprises want the framework laid out ahead of their move to the cloud. Think enterprise cloud IT reference architecture, much like Cisco provided for enterprise IP networks, DEC mainstreamed for client-server, and IBM established for mainframe computing. You have to “bring the cloud to them.” That enterprise cloud reference architecture is what Aviatrix targets, in the same buy-with-a-credit-card model that fueled customers’ unfettered move to AWS. On our DevOps Chat podcast episode, Steve Mullaney, CEO of Aviatrix, talks about what enterprises want in a true enterprise multi-cloud backbone to support their needs. Additional information about Aviatrix offerings is available at www.aviatrix.com.

$2m DARPA Award Sparks Mayhem Testing, ForAllSecure Jun 27, 2019

Show notes

Secure software depends on people finding vulnerabilities and deploying fixes before they are exploited in the wild. This has lead to a world of security researchers and bug bounties directed at finding new vulnerabilities. As dedicated as security researchers are, there is a vast ocean of software in existence, waiting for someone to find and exploit the next security vulnerability for profit or nefarious uses. With autonomous vehicles on the horizon, is there an autonomous solution to finding and fixing software vulnerabilities? Enter DARPA Cyber Grand Challenge winner “Mayhem”, created by a team of researchers from Carnegie Mellon University who spun out security startup ForAllSecure. And they have a BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal). "Our vision is to check the world’s software for exploitable bugs so they can be fixed before attackers use them to hack computers”. Mayhem has moved on from capture the flag contests to observing and finding vulnerabilities in DoD software and is working its way to corporate systems. In this episode of DevOps Chats we talk with David Brumley, ForAllSecure co-founder and CEO, and CMU professor about the technology behind Mayhem, how it observes software as it executes, and injects changes to effect and observe new and potentially exploitable behaviors. More information about Mayhem is also available at www.forallsecure.com.

AWS re:Inforce Global Intelligence for Guard Duty, Sumo Logic Jun 25, 2019

Show notes

Wouldn’t it be helpful to know if other cloud users are seeing the same or similar attacks that you are? Security intelligence about cloud applications beyond just those you own and operate as an enterprise opens up a new dimension in attack visibility against an even large sets of cloud apps. Sumo Logic announced its extending their machine analytics and intelligence platform to include AWS Guard Duty during AWS re:Inforce 2019. Dubbed Global Intelligence Service for Amazon GuardDuty, the new service is more than just a data aggregation and reporting play. The new service provides additional context around GuardDuty data by reporting attack information across multiple Sumo Logic customers using AWS GuardDuty. Essentially a “crowdsourcing” approach to reporting threat intelligence across the cloud. In this episode of DevOps Chat, David Andrejewski, Senior Engineering Manager at Sumo Logic, joins us to talk about this new, more expansive threat intelligence service. More information about Global Intelligence Service for Amazon GuardDuty is available in the press release and website at https://www.sumologic.com/application/aws-guardduty/ .

Shift Left for DevOps Security w/ Lacework's Dan Hubbard Jun 21, 2019

Show notes

Making sure our applications are secure during runtime is of course important but how do we shift left so security is built into containerized, serverless applications? Lacework announced the addition of build-time security capabilities which complement their existing run-time offering for cloud, container and hybrid environments. This “shift left” will provide security and compliance visibility across the enterprise’s infrastructure footprint, from development to runtime, and for cloud, container, bare metal, and hybrid environments. On this DevOps Chats episode, we talk with Lacework CEO Dan Hubbard about some of the challenges in moving security earlier in the DevOps process, and the benefits of examining security and vulnerabilities in both dev and runtime environments. More information about the announcement is available at http://www.lacework.com.

Chaos Testing with Open Source Cthulhu, xMatters Jun 19, 2019

Show notes

Introducing chaotic, unpredictable test software into your methodical testing regime is a good idea, right? Yes, it's a branch of testing called Chaos Engineering, or Chaos Testing. Netflix's Chaos Monkey famously introduced many of us to the idea that resilient systems, networks and software become more resilient and less brittle if we use chaotic testing methods to find their weak points before customers do. An innovative engineer at xMatters launched a new open source chaos testing tool named after H.P. Lovecraft's nightmarish character Cthulhu. Cthulhu is designed to test across multiple cloud providers, initially supporting Google Cloud with plans to support Amazon Web Services. It's open source, free to use, looking for more contributors, and is available on GitBub. We are joined on this DevOps Chats by Tobias Dunn-Krahn, CTO, and Gabrielle Gasse, lead engineer on the Cthulhu open source project, both at xMatters.

Checkmarx Updates Open Source Scanning with new CxOSA Jun 17, 2019

Show notes

As more and more of the components that make up the applications we use are open source, the need to secure these open source components increases. Of course Equifax is the poster child for this issue. Checkmarx, one of the leaders i application security scanning has had an open source scanning module for sometime. They have now updated that with a new homegrown engine that greatly improves the ability for their scanner to detect open source vulnerabilities in your applications. https://www.checkmarx.com/press-releases/checkmarx-makes-sca-market-waves-with-enhanced-open-source-security-offering In this DevOps Chat we speak with Matthew Rose of Checkmarx about what this means for you.

Containers as a Service and Application Delivery, SUSE Jun 14, 2019

Show notes

Agility, DevOps and Digital Transformation are racing into the mainstream. You know that’s the case when enterprise technology suppliers shift and adapt their strategies from infrastructure software to platforms for application delivery. That’s certainly been the case with SUSE, a company we’ve know for a long time going back to its Linux distribution origins. Adoption of contemporary software technologies such as Kubernetes containers presents another investment decision. Do you download, build, maintain and support your installation of Kubernetes or do pre-integrated and supported solutions enable you to speed up building and delivering applications. A control versus speed argument. On our DevOps Chat podcast we explore these paths; when its preferable organizations build from open source resources, when to utilize a Containers as a Service offering, or when an application delivery platform with support from a trusted supplier is best. Joining me in the discussion is Jennifer Kotzen, Senior Product Marketing Manager at SUSE. You can find out more about SUSE's offerings at https://www.suse.com.

Device Identity At The Speed of DevOps, Venafi Jun 11, 2019

Show notes

DevOps and Agile are all about making software cycles short and dynamic, empowering development teams to rapidly iterate, leveraging tools with fewer burdens and reliance on outside organizations. It's the dev + ops combination that is so powerful. But what about security, specifically the identity of physical and virtual devices, containers and micro services? Digital certificates are a key asset in managing device identity but traditional tools and processes may not fit the speed and dynamic nature of today's cloud native software. Our guest on DevOps Chats is Sandra Chrust, Senior Product Marketing Manager at Venafi. Sandra shares with us lessons learned to more easily manage device identities in DevOps and Agile environments, leveraging tools that provide self service portals, APIs and SDKs for automation.
