AI No Silver Bullet for Cloud Security, But Here’s How It Can Help
In this article, the author looks at the real role of artificial intelligence in cloud security – the hype, the reality, and how we can resolve the gap between them. He encourages the reader to focus on making cloud security platforms that allow humans to provide truly intelligent threat responses, rather than relying on the machines to do it for us.

Increasing Security with a Service Mesh: Christian Posta Explores the Capabilities of Istio
Istio attempts to solve some particularly difficult challenges when running applications in a cloud platform: application networking, reliability, and observability and (the focus of this article) security. With Istio, communication between services in the mesh is secure and encrypted by default. Istio can also help with "origin" or "end-user" JWT identity token verification.

Istio and the Future of Service Meshes
A service mesh provides a transparent and language-independent way to flexibly and easily automate networking, security, and observation functions. This article examines the past, present and future of the Istio service mesh. The near-term goal is to launch Istio to 1.0, when the key features will all be in beta, including support for Hybrid environments.
