As cloud native architectures become more distributed, dynamic, and automated, identity increasingly becomes the new security perimeter. Traditional approaches to authentication and authorization struggle to keep pace with short-lived workloads, service-to-service communication, and zero-trust requirements.
The Identity and Access Management (IAM) whitepaper provides practical guidance for architects, platform engineers, security practitioners, and application developers implementing Identity and Access Management (IAM) in cloud native environments.
Read the whitepaper to discover:
- Why IAM is foundational to cloud native security
- How to authenticate users and workloads using modern standards
- When to use perimeter-based versus zero-trust architectures
- Best practices for authorization using PEP/PDP architectures
- How SPIFFE enables secure workload identity and service-to-service authentication
- Reference patterns for securing stateful and stateless workloads
