Security

Security involves securing applications, devices, and users accessing the network infrastructure. To prevent cyber threats and exploitation, network security implements multiple layers of defense within the network and at the edge. The cost of operational overhead and other expenses can be reduced by adopting serverless security.

Cloud native computing and cloud computing require different approaches to security. Cloud native security has a set of priorities and open-source security requirements that come with introducing both a container and container orchestrator into a production environment.

Securing both internal and external systems has become vital. This is evident in the Docker Hub intrusion in early 2019, which also affected GitHub, BitBucket, and other public/private cloud-based repositories.
