Securing microservices

- [Kevin] Innovation in the microservice space has outpaced security. When teams acknowledge the security gap and attempt to secure their microservices, there's normally a lot of confusion, because it's the intersection of two deep spaces. Frustrated, they'll default to applying security tactics that worked in the past. These tactics will turn their microservices into unmanageable, distributed monoliths. Hi, I'm Kevin Bowersox. As an engineer, I've built secure microservices for systems where security was a top priority. In this course, I'll teach you patterns, standards and best practices so you can confidently integrate security into a microservice-based system without sacrificing the benefits they deliver. We'll go in depth into how platforms like API gateways and identity providers can be used to deliver secure microservices and save you time by not reinventing the wheel. So join me on my LinkedIn Learning course to learn the foundations of microservice security.
