Illumio Edge is managed in the cloud and uses a lightweight agent on endpoints — either an Illumio agent or customers can use an existing CrowdStrike Falcon agent.

Cisco SD-WAN customers can now transition to the vendor's newly unveiled SASE offering with the click of a button.

While discussing SD-WAN and VMware's emerging SASE offering, COO Rajiv Ramaswami opened a can of worms on the efficacy of service chaining.

Big Blue plans to integrate Spanugo’s software into its public cloud to help meet the security and compliance needs of regulated industries like banking and health care.

Both bundles can use A10’s Harmony Controller for application management and integration into CI/CD workflows.

The update also highlights the ongoing activity behind the widely used software infrastructure layer that continues to trade on its robustness compared to newer options.

The vendor's update looks to entice customers of the legacy "shared-nothing" scale-out, storage systems with a disaggregated, shared-everything model.

The new Azure confidential computing service allows companies to process data in hardware-based secure enclaves called trusted execution environments.

The technology translates information from packet headers, out-of-band information, and past network activity to predict and classify traffic.

IBM Cloud Data Shield is based on Fortanix’s technology that encrypts data at rest, in transit, and while in use, thus allowing general-purpose computation on encrypted data.

“Confidential computing is one of the most important and relevant new paradigms that you folks will hear in the near future,” said Intel’s Anil Rao.

The bug would allow an attacker to exploit a known vulnerability in Intel's CSME to gain access to the chipset key used for cryptography.

One of the near-term goals is to make cryptography more robust and ready for a post-quantum computing landscape, said NTT Research CEO Kazuhiro Gomi.

The U.S. government’s quantum research budget, which addresses a national security issue, is $30 million, or just 0.0006% of the federal budget.

“When it comes to building an overall security stack, hardware and the firmware that runs on that hardware is bedrock,” said Intel’s Tom Garrison.

Mellanox, which is being acquired by Nvidia in a $6.9 billion deal, announced the pair of SmartNICs at VMworld last summer.

It’s also getting a little bit SASE with its secure SD-WAN, but executives say they’ll talk more about this technology later in the year.

The security startup has about a dozen paying customers and is “working with some of the largest service providers,” said CEO Guru Pai.

The updates tap into Red Hat's NooBaa acquisition in 2018.

Google Cloud made some big moves in 2019, but will they be enough to best top-ranked Amazon and Microsoft and win the cloud wars?

This includes a new External Key Manager, which allows companies to store and manage encryption keys outside of Google Cloud

The startup claims its decentralized storage costs less than half the price of AWS and cloud providers' storage.

The initiative taps into Intel’s Software Guard Extension platform to support confidential computing data protection for Kubernetes workloads.

The company cited simplicity and security as being the heart of its K10 platform in order to target a growing push toward Kubernetes-based, cloud-native applications.
