"Paladin Cloud Launches New Cloud Security and Governance Platform"

Securing the infrastructure remains challenging as more organizations migrate their data, applications, and workloads to the cloud. Because security teams do not always know what is going on in each cloud environment, it is difficult to detect when security policies are broken. That is the issue Paladin Cloud hopes to address with its security-as-code platform. The Paladin Cloud platform is designed to assist developers and DevOps teams in protecting their applications and data during testing and production. This is accomplished by giving teams complete visibility into the organization's various cloud services and systems. The platform has a plugin-based architecture that allows developers to connect to and ingest data from various sources such as code repositories, threat intelligence systems, container scanning, Application Programming Interface (API) gateways, and cloud-based enterprise systems, including Kubernetes. Qualys Vulnerability Assessment Platform, Bitbucket, Trend Micro Deep Security, Tripwire, Venafi Certificate Management, and Red Hat are among the vendor systems supported. To get a complete picture of the organization's cloud security posture, security teams can write rules based on data collected by these plugins. This article continues to discuss the new open-source security-as-code platform.
