Asking the right questions in Cloud Security

Image
  Nothing in life is to be feared; it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we fear less.              Marie Curie 2025 SANS Cloud Security Exchange was the most incredible learning experience. Those new to the industry simply have to be a part of of attending SANS events such as this. I recently attended SANS 2025 Cloud Security Exchange, where I learned more about designing end-to-end security architectures using Zero Trust principles. The opportunity to learn directly from some of the most influential leaders in this domain was unparalleled; SANS publicised this as being the event of the year to directly interact with the guest speakers, providing an opportunity to learn what may take years, if one expects such nuggets of knowledge to come from experience. The speakers were generous with their time and thoughtful in their responses--making the take aways more than knowledge to apply as best practices, this b...

Python project: DevOps Blue/Green Deployment using VS Code | Developer PowerShell

Image
  Blue/Green Deployment with AWS Lambda  This hands on DevOps project uses two versions of a Lambda function for blue/green deployment . An alias is used to switch traffic between them. An alias is a pointer which directs traffic between two version.  This project assumes an AWS account has already been created, and permissions have been granted to access/manage Lambda, IAM, and awscli if one is not root when accessing the AWS console and services.  VS Code is the IDE being used with a virtual environment and PowerShell for the terminal. Step 1: Set up the virtual enironment. The most important commands in working with your virtual environment are: Create your virtual environment py -m venv env Activate your virtual environment env\Scripts\activate TODO: It's also a good idea to update pip using the following command: py -m pip install --upgrade pip   Go to View > select Command Palette > Select Python Interpreter > (env:venv) Configure credenti...

AWS Cloud Services: The key to keeping monolithic architectures competitive.

Image
Cost optimization is one of the pillars of the AWS Well-Architected Framework and is a critical pillar for monolithic architectures, in order to stay competitive. This blog post aims to provide an argument for the use of AWS services to reduce the TCO (total cost of ownership) for on-premise/hybrid environments which must maintain on-premise/hybrid infrastructure. When it comes to cloud adoption, "cloud-native" is not a reality for environments which adhere to stringent requirements for compliance purposes.  The e-book titled, "Cloud-native DevOps: A guide to implementation and best practices on AWS" takes a strong stance, when it comes to criticizing on-premise monolithic applications. In reality, this depends entirely on the use case and if it actually makes sense to have a SaaS application become "cloud native". Some software applications are so technical, complex, operating in heavily regulated industries, and require resources which demand a greater a...
