Rapid growth across container and kubernetes adoption, security incidents, and DevSecOps initiatives
StackRox released the findings of the State of Containers and Kubernetes Security Report, Fall 2020. Security incidents remain high (90 percent), and nearly half of respondents have delayed rolling out applications into production because of security concerns (44 percent). At the same time, organizations have progressed in developing DevSecOps initiatives (83 percent have some form in place) and in maturing their container and Kubernetes security strategies (only 25 percent lack a strategy).
“These findings show how seriously organizations are taking the need to secure their cloud-native stack,” said Kamal Shah, president and CEO, StackRox. “It’s especially exciting to see so many organizations embrace DevSecOps as part of the solution to embedding security across the entire software supply chain.”
