Session 3: Continuous Security for Cloud-native Applications

Thursday, 2 December 2021, 12.00 pm - 1.30 pm SGT

Red Hat recently launched Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security for Kubernetes (RHACS). Powered by StackRox technology, RHACS protects your vital applications across build, deploy, and runtime. Our software deploys in your infrastructure and integrates with your DevOps tooling and workflows to deliver better security and compliance. The policy engine includes hundreds of built-in controls to enforce DevOps and security best practices, industry standards such as CIS Benchmarks and National Institute of Standards Technology (NIST) guidelines, configuration management of both containers and Kubernetes, and runtime security. Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security for Kubernetes provides a Kubernetes-native architecture for container security, enabling DevOps and InfoSec teams to operationalize security.

• Introduction: build, deploy, and run cloud-native applications securely anywhere
• Overview of RHACS
• Tour of RHACS console and features
