4C's of Cloud Native Security
Cloud native security refers to the set of practices and tools used to secure applications running in cloud environments.
The 4C's of cloud native security are:
- cloud
- clusters
- container
- code
Each of the 4C's plays a critical role in securing cloud native applications.
Cloud Security
- Cloud security involves securing the infrastructure and services used to host cloud native applications.
- Cloud security includes network security, identity and access management, and data security.
- Cloud security measures include firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention systems, and encryption.
Cluster Security
- Cluster security involves securing the nodes and services that make up a Kubernetes cluster.
- Cluster security includes node security, network security, and access control.
- Cluster security measures include role-based access control, network policies, and secure node configuration.
Container Security
- Container security involves securing the containers that make up a cloud native application.
- Container security includes container image scanning, runtime security, and access control.
- Container security measures include container image vulnerability scanning, runtime monitoring, and container network policies.
Code Security
- Code security involves securing the code that makes up a cloud native application.
- Code security includes code review, vulnerability scanning, and access control.
- Code security measures include code review processes, vulnerability scanning tools, and secure code signing and deployment processes.
