In light of the recent Log4Shell vulnerability that has been
dominating the headlines, I invited Asad Ali, Senior Director,
Global Centre of Excellence at Dynatrace to join me on Tech Talks
Daily. We talk about the longer-term impact this vulnerability will
have on the way organizations handle their cybersecurity practices
and the next steps they can take in the more immediate term.
Some organizations may not even know they are affected or which
instances of the vulnerability are most urgent to address. For
example, not all cases will be present in applications exposed to
public networks and reveal sensitive data to malicious
attackers.
We discuss why the dynamic and complex nature of today’s cloud
environments has broken traditional approaches to application
security. We also talk about how an AI-driven approach can help
dramatically speed up risk and impact analysis of the vulnerability
by automatically and continuously identifying and prioritizing
instances that access critical databases or file systems in the
environment.
Finally, we talk about what to expect from Dynatrace Perform in February.
