The Truth About CNAPP and Kubernetes Security

The Truth About CNAPP and Kubernetes Security

In this episode of the Cloud Security Podcast, host Ashish Rajan speaks to James Berthoty, founder of Latio.Tech and an engineer-driven analyst, for a discussion on cloud security tools. In this episode James breaks down CNAPP and what it really means for engineers, if kubernetes secuity is the new baseline for cloud security and runtime security vs vulnerability management.
