As the sophistication and frequency of digital fraud continue to rise, understanding the connection between API security and fraud has never been more critical ...

As an orchestration tool, Kubernetes solves many IT issues that are, unfortunately, part and parcel of using containers, including the need for high availability, reliability, scalability, fault tolerance, and spiraling costs. It's clear Kubernetes makes sense for organizations looking to manage containerized applications, but it's also a smart tool to help scale digital transformations — here's why ...

APIs are incredibly important in today's digital landscape. They play a crucial role in enabling communication and interaction between different software applications, systems, and services. Due to the increasing reliance on APIs, they have gradually become the top target for hackers. As such, enterprises are placing more emphasis on API security to protect the integrity of data and services, build trust and confidence, and mitigate future risks ...

As engineering leaders, we've all become familiar with DORA metrics ... In fact, our industry has started to view success through the lens of DORA metrics. That view is incomplete and, worse, often misunderstood. For a complete view on how to view DORA metrics and use them to improve engineering teams, we need to acknowledge some long-held misinterpretations ...

As a developer ... the expectation for you to maintain velocity and security only keeps growing. The "Shift Left" approach is the outcome and epitome of this accelerated pace of software development. In this instance, tests and validations are conducted early in the development cycle to arrest any risks associated with software quality. This post will unravel the opposite (and perhaps obvious) "Shift Right" concept ...
