Holistic approach to microservices security

As web applications have grown more complicated, with larger code bases, quicker response time requirements and an increasing number of users, the traditional monolithic architecture model has shown its limitations, pa­rticularly in terms of scalability and the frequency of necessary updates.

Leveraging the latest technologies, modern architecture decomposes large applications into smaller independent applications called microservices. These microservices, which can be easily modified, scaled and independently deployed, communicate with each other through REST API.

This whitepaper provides a comprehensive overview of microservices security, emphasizing its import­ance in modern applications. It also details key security risks, security testing techniques and best practices.
