Security And Microservices
summary
Microservices increase attack surface but also enable tighter per-service controls; key claims: HTTPS everywhere via Let's Encrypt (ACME) and client-side certificates or JWTs for service-to-service auth, automated patching (44% of breaches exploit known, unpatched CVEs), and threat modeling with attack trees/STRIDE/DREAD. Recommended tools and practices: Snyk and Clair for dependency/image scanning, ELK/Splunk for centralized logs, mod_security for network filters, automated backups and immutable deploy pipelines so you can “burn and rebuild” cleanly after compromise. Target’s breach hit ~40% of US households as a cautionary example.
