Episode 361: NetApp Spot Security - What's New in Spring 2023

TechONTAPPodcast

If you've ever worked an IT support job and had to do on-call rotations, you probably know how noisy things can get with alerts and events - especially when they get sent to your phone or work device. I can recall rolling out of bed at 3AM to the sound of alerts on my phone, only to realize that most of the alarms were either false positives or things that were not high urgency. That gets old fast, and you start to tune the alerts out. Naturally, that's when the big outage happens and your boss wonders why you didn't respond quickly enough. That gets even more complicated when you are dealing with infrastructure that you don't even own - such as the cloud. Good luck tracking down where the problem is in your environment or where a potential security vulnerability might be hiding out. It's like finding a needle in a haystack. NetApp Spot Security aims to simplify your cloud security monitoring by providing a single interface to monitor multiple clouds, notify you of potential misconfiguration issues that might lead to breaches, filter out noisy events so that you only get the important alerts, and much more. Spot Security PM Isma Rizvi joins us to tell us all about what's new with Spot Security in the Spring 2023 release!
