    How DevOps leads the way to digital business transformation

    Digital transformation has been occurring in organizations of all sizes for the past few years, yet the process isn’t moving fast enough to move the needle in many companies. How can DevOps help increase the velocity and impact of digital transformation? That's what DevOps.com's experts explore in this eBook.

    Regardless of IT spending plans, nearly three-quarters of enterprise IT executives surveyed said they expect to either accelerate or maintain digital transformation initiatives and projects. The only way to accelerate the building and deployment of modern digital business applications is to embrace best DevOps practices. Organizations are quickly discovering that not only have the timetables for these projects been accelerated, but also digital business applications need to be updated continuously.

    End users have come to expect applications to expose a regular cadence of new features and updates. They also expect those applications to be secure no matter what vulnerabilities have been discovered and when. The only way to live up to those expectations is to accelerate the rate and reliability of new features and functions added to an application.

    The State of Email Security 2020

    Global business is interspersed with a diversity of industrial sectors, united by a single, common communication thread that is key to any business: email connectivity.

    At the close of 2019, many IT and IT security decision makers were planning to bolster their security posture with protections at the email gateway, within their organizations to protect employees and customers, and beyond their organizations’ four walls to uphold brand trust. These protections are still underway; in fact, they are more critical than ever.

    At the same time, comprehensive data from Mimecast Threat Center indicates a severely negative impact to businesses in the first half of 2020, and experts predict we’ll see these attacks for months to come. Threat actors are relying heavily on impersonation and brand exploitation to take advantage of the uncertainty during the global COVID-19 pandemic.

    The usual email and web security defenses are no longer good enough; to prevent and protect your business against threat actors now and in the future, it’s critical to integrate security awareness training as well as to protect your online brand.

    Best practices for migrating to containerized applications

    When thinking about migrating applications into containers, there are three main high-level strategies: lift and shift, augment, and rewrite.

    No matter which method you choose, it is important to recognize that most software was designed and written before modern, image-based containers were invented. Even if you choose the “lift and shift” method, where you might run a monolithic application inside a single container, it is likely that your application will need to be modified. To successfully move to containers, you will need a solid migration strategy that takes into account the needs of your applications and the nature of Linux® containers.

    Learn specific, technical recommendations and guidelines for migrating software into containers—from image build procedures to production best practices.
