Besides creating a new industry standard, Long View’s framework for securing a Big Five Bank’s Kubernetes helps them to deliver a superior customer experience reliably and securely

 

In today’s digital world customers are increasingly becoming connected. As a result, their demand for innovative products, services and overall online experience means that banks must become digitally agile with an unprecedented capability to deliver innovative products and services securely.

As an open-source container-orchestration system Kubernetes, enable the bank’s development team, in either a private or public cloud environment, to deploy software reliably at unprecedented speed and scale. Being able to do this in any environment with the full confidence that data is secure is critical.

This Big Five Canadian Bank turned to Long View Systems to develop a security framework for Kubernetes in the cloud. By documenting the policies, procedures, and processes regarding the management of information in a hyper-speed environment with countless and variable access points, Long View established a new industry standard for securing the bank’s infrastructure.
