I will always have a soft spot for AWS as my preferred cloud provider. A few weeks ago I was asked to develop a solution on Google Cloud, and while at first I had my reservations, it didn't take long for me to start liking it.
Having some form of automated security reporting platform will help organisations to have real-time visibility of the security posture across their environment.

We've become accustomed to seeing HTTPS on our websites, yet there are still some that simply refuse to use HTTPS. Our favourite Bureau of Meteorology is exactly one such case.
MRTG - an age-old graphing tool used by network administrators all over the world. But it's not just for networking systems. I've used it to monitor various things. In this how-to, I'll walk you through how you can create a simple MRTG system to track pretty much anything.

Threat modeling is a process used by developers and engineers to understand the threats that exist that may exploit a weakness or vulnerability in a software application or platform.
