Keyfactor Announces DevOps Integrations to Address Identity and Access Management Security Risk

7 hours ago TCP Staff

Ted Shorter, chief technology officer and co-founder at Keyfactor

Our mission is to help DevOps teams establish critical trust at design through comprehensive and complete cryptographic management. We want to make it easy to apply cloud-first, crypto-agility at scale to ensure all connections – especially those critical to business and human life – are trusted.

CLEVELAND (PRWEB) January 21, 2020
Keyfactor, the leader in securing digital identities, today announced DevOps integrations with automation and containerization industry leaders Ansible, Docker, HashiCorp, Jenkins and Kubernetes to offer security-first services and solutions designed to seamlessly integrate with existing enterprise tools and applications.
“DevOps has radically improved agility and application delivery in organizations large and small,” said Ted Shorter, chief technology officer and co-founder at Keyfactor. “Yet new DevOps processes and tooling have struggled to align security within workflows – software security typically takes more time than DevOps-centered software delivery cycles allow.”
A rise in cryptographic-based attacks, like last year’s ASUS attack, exploit third-party software and its digital certificates, allowing attackers to connect to sensitive backend systems or push malware through updater tools. Recent research indicates a 39% likelihood that organizations will experience a similar server certificate or key misuse incident over the next two years.
According to research firm Gartner Inc., “proper secrets management, including certificate and key management, is crucial to security agile applications.”1
Digital certificates have long played an integral – if not routine – role in DevOps workflows, securing authentication across users, devices and applications. The secure identities the certificates establish reinforce key DevOps practices within infrastructure, pipeline, code and microservices integration, thereby bridging the DevSecOps gap and the ability to mitigate security risk.
“Our mission is to help DevOps teams establish critical trust at design through comprehensive and complete cryptographic management,” said Shorter. “We want to make it easy to apply cloud-first, crypto-agility at scale to ensure all connections – especially those critical to business and human life – are trusted.”
Keyfactor offers cloud-hosted PKI-as-a-Service infrastructure through integrated certificate and key management, secure signing and secure IoT device design. The platform provides discovery, integration and orchestration capabilities, enabling teams to gain complete crypto-agility, extensibility and visibility.
About KeyfactorKeyfactor empowers enterprises of all sizes to escape the exposure epidemic – when breaches, outages and failed audits from digital certificates and keys impact brand loyalty and the bottom line. Powered by an award-winning PKI as-a-service platform for certificate lifecycle automation and IoT device security, IT and InfoSec teams can easily manage digital certificates and keys. And product teams can build IoT devices with crypto-agility and at massive scale. Exceptional products and a white-glove customer experience for its 500+ global customers have earned Keyfactor a 98.5% retention rate and a 99% support satisfaction rate.

Roland DGA Announces Launch of New DGSHAPE LD-300 Laser Decorator

8 hours ago TCP Staff

The new DGSHAPE LD-300 laser decorator has a large 12″ x 9″ workspace that makes customizing a wide variety of products with metallic and holographic foil easier than ever.

“With its unique design, larger workspace, and leather imprinting capabilities, the LD-300 offers greater versatility and productivity. You can enhance and add value to a wider range of products.”– Jay Roberts, Roland DGA Product Manager, UV Printers and Personalization

IRVINE, Calif. (PRWEB) January 21, 2020
Roland DGA has announced the launch of the new DGSHAPE LD-300 laser decorator – a larger, more robust version of the company’s LD-80, the world’s first laser decorator, which was introduced in March of 2018.
In addition to featuring all the impressive capabilities of its predecessor, the next-generation LD-300 boasts an expanded 12” x 9” workspace that allows for precision foil decoration on larger three-dimensional items, plus the ability to imprint directly onto natural leather.
“The new LD-300 enables users to go far beyond the foil decoration of smaller, soft plastic objects,” said Jay Roberts, Roland DGA Product Manager, UV Printers and Personalization. “With its unique design, larger workspace, and leather imprinting capabilities, the LD-300 offers greater versatility and productivity. You can enhance and add value to a wider range of products, including cosmetic items, custom gifts, wallets, purses, and much more.”
The LD-300’s workspace makes it easy to decorate objects up to 1.9” thick with a variety of metallic and holographic foils. For larger items, the bed can be easily removed, allowing the LD-300 to accommodate handbags, product packaging, and other objects up to 11.8” in size. Compared to traditional hot-foil stamping methods and laser engraving technology, the LD-300 is less complicated, cleaner and safer to use. It’s also simple to set up and operate. Users can customize a wide variety of items in just a few easy steps –just place the object in the machine, add your chosen foil, and laser imprint your design via the included METAZA Studio Software.
“Our new LD-300 is a Class 1 laser product, so users can rest assured that it’s safe and reliable,” noted Roberts. “With its shielded front cover and completely enclosed frame, this device is perfect for use in retail environments. And, unlike laser engraving technologies that tend to burn the surface of leather during processing, the LD-300 requires no ventilation and leaves no debris during operation.”
