API Gateway and Service Mesh: Bridging the Gap Between API Management and Zero-Trust Architecture

Discover how API management and service mesh can go hand in hand toward secured platforms Over the last ten years, Kongers have witnessed hundreds of companies adopting a full lifecycle API management platform and have been working with the people behind the scenes, the “API tribes.” We’ve also learned from the field that API tribes most often have to deal with heterogeneous platforms, infrastructures, and clouds.

API Security Fundamentals: Everything You Need to Know

You’ve probably heard of the Internet of Things (IoT); all those everyday objects that incorporate computing functions. For example, the IoT allows you to connect your phone to your refrigerator. This way, you can know exactly what to buy at the supermarket for that impromptu dinner that night. Perhaps you’re part of a DevOps team, using microservices and containers to build and deploy legacy and cloud-native applications quickly and iteratively.

Boost Your Business with Secure SFTP File Sharing

Secure FTP (SFTP) is a powerful protocol that businesses can use to improve collaboration, increase efficiency, and safeguard sensitive information. By using SFTP, businesses can securely transfer files between users and locations, regardless of their network or device type. This can help improve productivity and protect sensitive data from unauthorized access. In this article, we’ll discuss what is SFTP, how it works, its benefits, and how to set up SFTP for your business.

Tech in Business: Benefits of Outsourcing Cybersecurity Solutions to MSPs

In today's fast-paced digital landscape, technology has become an integral part of daily business operations. From managing internal processes to customer interactions, technology plays a critical role in ensuring a company's success. However, as technology evolves, so do the threats that businesses face.

How to Optimize Your SFTP Data Integration Process

In today's data-driven world, the seamless exchange of information is the lifeblood of modern enterprises. Whether you're a small startup or a global corporation, the ability to securely and efficiently transfer data between systems and partners is essential for success. This is where Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) emerges as a crucial player, providing a robust framework for data integration that safeguards sensitive information while ensuring its swift and reliable passage from point A to point B.

Medical Device Cybersecurity Trends From Our New Report

As medical technology becomes more connected, ensuring the security of medical devices is vital. Technology advances, bringing new opportunities for innovation and to improve the lives of patients — but emerging technology also presents opportunities for malicious actors.

The CHIPS and Science Act's Ongoing Impact

More than a year after the CHIPS and Science Act was signed into law – granting $52 billion in subsidies for chip manufacturers to build fabrication plants in the U.S. – it has had a notable impact on semiconductor jobs, education, and overall outlook. Though the act spurred dramatic and immediate investment in U.S. semiconductor manufacturing, some of the key gains are just starting to be seen.

Common API Authentication Methods: Use Cases and Benefits

As businesses expand and gain visibility, it’s natural that their API attack surfaces become more exposed — increasing the risk of dangerous data breaches. Protecting cloud communications and securing data in transit should be your organization’s top priority. API authentication mechanisms help ensure that only valid users can access your application's features and services, and these mechanisms should be tailored to fit your specific needs.

Adaptive API Security

In a world filled with threats, how can we deploy APIs with confidence? In this talk, we'll review how biological immune systems solve the problem and dive into how similar concepts drive Salt Security's Kong Plugin. The issue is how to defend APIs against evolving adversaries without knowing in advance what their attacks will be...all while not over-alerting on false positives. Join us to learn about security standards, why AuthZ/AuthN aren't enough, and what we as professionals can do to enhance trust in an increasingly API driven world.
