Recent high-profile security events have created a cause for concern through the DevSecOps community. We have witnessed a sophisticated shift in the threat landscape: attackers are no longer just targeting the applications you build. They’re targeting the very tools you use to protect them.By compromising the service accounts and version tags of popular third-party security "actions" and scanners, threat actors have successfully turned security tools into delivery vehicles for malware. In these scenarios, the moment a continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline triggers a sec
In distributed system management, defining the "ideal state" of a server is rarely black and white. Different operational goals often create tension between performance tuning and security hardening, where optimizing for one can inadvertently break the other. To resolve this friction, Red Hat Lightspeed has introduced a new cross-service validation capability between our advisor and compliance services.Red Hat Lightspeed advisor: Recommendations for misconfigurations and best practices to improve stability, performance, and availability.Compliance: Monitors compliance with security baselines t
Have you noticed the recent surge of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) roadmaps and Q-day countdowns? They’re hard to miss. Organizations across the industry are rushing to set PQC deadlines as research increasingly suggests the risk of a cryptographically-relevant quantum computer (CRQC) appearing before the year 2030 is no longer a fringe theory—it’s a real possibility. While the industry makes bets on the exact date the quantum clock will hit zero, Red Hat has taken a different, pragmatic approach by focusing on adoption, integration, and delivery of the tools and software you need so w
