Venafi Reveals Novel Cloud Safety Facility for DevOps Teams



AUSTIN, Texas April 18: DockerCon Booth S35 – Venafi®, the top contributor of fortification for machine identities, revealed Venafi CloudTM for DevOps, a novel, assimilated cloud-oriented facility that distributes quick, frictionless, protected cryptographic keys and digital certificates that function with prevalent business DevOps platforms.


“DevOps teams value innovation; they need platforms that deliver speed and agility,” revealed Kevin Bocek, chief security policymaker for Venafi, adding, “Unfortunately, even the most sophisticated DevOps teams struggle to secure keys and digital certificates. For the first time, Venafi Cloud for DevOps gives engineers access to secure, fully automated key and certificates without slowing down application development.”

DevOps teams necessitate automation to quicken application expansion distribution but business key and certificate acquisition methods are frequently time consuming as well as burdensome. As a consequence, DevOps engineers generate novel key and certificate attainment methods custom-made to their requirements. These impromptu key and certificate practices seldom meet business safety criteria and present considerable fresh safety perils. Via smooth API combination with the DigiCert high-volume Certificate Authority, Venafi Cloud for DevOps permits creators to achieve automatic, quick, accessible no-cost admittance to keys and certificates from within the DevOps platforms they at present utilize without conceding business safety.

Keys and certificates create identities for all types of machines, as well as containers, making the fortification of keys and certificates a crucial factor of an organization’s safety tactic. Mischievous utilization of fake or embezzled certificates permits cyber attackers to conceal in encrypted traffic, and numerous organizations do not possess the devices to administer and alleviate these pressures. This is propelling a remarkable growth in business safety perils.

These safety perils are augmented in DevOps settings because the pace and scale of growth is quickening. As a consequence, the number of machines, and the keys and certificates required to distinctively recognize them, is exploding. Without scalable, automated fortification, keys and certificates that are conceded in growth can lead straight to severe production susceptibilities.

Dan Timpson, CTO at DigiCert commented, “DigiCert is pleased to partner with Venafi and to advance key security protections for DevOps teams through automated PKI. Increasingly, organizations are recognizing the need for ‘zero-trust environments’ within their data centers, and the importance of persistent authentication and encryption that digital certificates provide. We are focused on building reliable APIs for automating certificate management that integrate with a variety of platforms and systems.”


Alex Peay, SaltStack VP of product remarked, “IT organizations have a substantial task of securing extremely complex infrastructures. This task has never been more important considering the constantly evolving threats to business systems and data. SaltStack and Venafi now offer integrated and automated system encryption and certificate management to deliver rapid and secure production infrastructure deployment and application development."
