IBM Uses Open Tech in Cloud Security

IBM announces Cloud Pak for Security-- a collection of "industry-first innovations" to connect with any security tool, cloud or on-premise system without moving data from the original source.

The platform uses open-source technologies to hunt threats, automation capabilities to speed response to attacks and the ability to run in any environment. As IBM puts it, Cloud Pak for Security can search and translate security data from a variety of sources, bringing together critical security insights from across a multicloud environment. It is also extensible, allowing the addition of tools and applications over time.

HPE Intros Container Platform

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) takes on, well, containers with the Container Platform, an enterprise-grade Kubernertes-based container platform customers can deploy either on bare metal, any public cloud or virtualised infrastructure.
