VMware delivers cloud protection with Kubernetes security

Virtualisation solutions vendor VMware, has unveiled expanded cloud workload protection capabilities to deliver security for containers and Kubernetes.

According to the vendor, the new solution will help increase visibility, enable compliance and enhance security for containerised applications from build to production in public cloud and on-premises environments.

“Containers and Kubernetes are enabling organisations to develop and modernise applications faster than ever, but the innovation is also expanding the attack surface,” said Patrick Morley, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Security Business Unit, VMware. “Our solution extends security to containers and Kubernetes to deliver one of the industry’s most comprehensive cloud workload protection platforms. With security built into the development and deployment of applications, we are bridging the gap between the SOC and DevOps teams to help our customers reduce the risks that come with running containers across clouds.”

For many organisations, migrating to the cloud has had to happen quickly and at a large scale to ensure business continuity amid the global pandemic. Development teams are looking to containers and Kubernetes for speed and the ability to scale application delivery.
