Supply chain security
From a domain objective perspective, we can see a few different points that are important; supply chain security, image repository security, observability, service mesh, PKI, overall connectivity, and the admission control. Now sort of circling back through the whole idea of cybersecurity as a whole, it usually comes down to systems and networks, which we've seen a lot so far throughout this training. Now, as we think about platform engineering, platform security comes into play. And the whole idea of platform engineering is to create abstractions on top of complicated platforms to make the use of them easier for engineers and developers. And the thing is, as you put those abstractions on top, those abstractions which are third-party tools and services, need to be secure as well. So, for example, the whole idea of using a service mesh is to secure your network. But what's securing the service mesh? So now we dive into the first part which is the software supply chain security. And…
