Organizations are rapidly shifting to cloud-native environments to capitalize on speed, agility, and scale – in fact, a recent ESG survey finds that 46% of organizations have more complex infrastructure today than two years ago. As organizations shift towards more complex, ephemeral, cloud native software development, they need to adapt their security mindset and best practices.

In this webinar, Doug Cahill, Senior Analyst at ESG and Tim Buntel, VP of Application Security Products at Threat Stack, will discuss the key findings  from ESG’s recent “Leverage DevSecOps to Secure Cloud-native Applications” report, the current state of security for cloud-native applications, and how organizations can automate security throughout the entire CI/CD pipeline using a real-world example of a build-time attack. 

Key takeaways: 

  • The composition of cloud-native applications today and future trends
  • Automating security across the CI/CD pipeline by leveraging DevSecOps
  • Best practices for both  build-time and run-time security in cloud-native environments
