Secure multi-tenancy is a method in computing where multiple users or organisations, called tenants, share the same physical or virtual resources such as servers, databases or applications. The main goal is to ensure that each tenant’s data and activities are kept private and protected from others, even though they use the same underlying system. Security…
Serverless security refers to protecting applications that run on serverless computing platforms, where cloud providers automatically manage the servers. In this model, developers only write code and set up functions, while the infrastructure is handled by the provider. Security focuses on access control, safe coding practices, and monitoring, as traditional server security methods do not…
Kubernetes hardening refers to the process of securing a Kubernetes environment by applying best practices and configuration adjustments. This involves reducing vulnerabilities, limiting access, and protecting workloads from unauthorised use or attacks. Hardening covers areas such as network security, user authentication, resource permissions, and monitoring. By hardening Kubernetes, organisations can better protect their infrastructure, data,…
Container security refers to the set of practices and tools designed to protect software containers, which are lightweight, portable units used to run applications. These measures ensure that the applications inside containers are safe from unauthorised access, vulnerabilities, and other threats. Container security covers the whole lifecycle, from building and deploying containers to running and…
Software Composition Analysis is a process used to identify and manage the open source and third-party components within software projects. It helps developers understand what building blocks make up their applications and whether any of these components have security vulnerabilities or licensing issues. By scanning the software, teams can keep track of their dependencies and…
A Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) is a software tool or service that sits between users and cloud service providers to monitor and control data traffic. It helps organisations enforce security policies, protect data, and ensure compliance when employees access cloud applications. CASBs provide visibility into cloud usage, detect risky behaviour, and can block unauthorised…
Deception technology is a cybersecurity method that uses decoys, traps, and fake digital assets to mislead attackers within a computer network. By creating realistic but false targets, it aims to detect and study malicious activity early, before real harm is done. This approach helps security teams spot threats quickly and understand attackers’ methods without risking…
A Security Posture Assessment is a process used to evaluate how well an organisation protects its digital assets and data from threats. It involves reviewing security policies, controls, and systems to identify strengths and weaknesses. The goal is to understand the current state of security and highlight areas needing improvement to reduce risks.
Behavioural biometrics is a technology that identifies or verifies people based on how they interact with devices or systems. It analyses patterns such as typing speed, mouse movements, touchscreen gestures, or how someone walks. These patterns are unique to individuals and can be used to strengthen security or personalise user experiences. Unlike passwords or fingerprints,…
Fileless malware detection focuses on identifying harmful software that operates in a computer’s memory, without leaving files behind on the hard drive. Unlike traditional viruses that can be found and removed by scanning files, fileless malware hides in running processes, scripts, or legitimate software tools. Detecting this type of threat often requires monitoring system behaviour,…
