Forcepoint presented at Tech Field Day last week, and Edward Haletky shares his impressions in this post. He focuses on the company’s user and entity behavioral analytics tool that’s used to determine what behaviors are “risky” for a given user. This is vital for organizations trying to stay secure at scale.
Docker, Modernizing Traditional Applications
At DockerCon, one of Docker’s major pushing was modernizing traditional applications, MTA. They’re specifically targeting containerizing legacy Windows applications, a lift and shift approach by placing an entire Windows image inside a container. Edward Haletky isn’t entirely won over by the draft specifications as outlined by Docker for this process. He does like that Docker introduced certified containers, which goes a long way to alleviate security concerns, and credential specification within PowerShell. The big challenge he sees is identifying applications going forward.
