Achieve Faster Authorization to Operate (ATO) for your Cloud Native Apps with Mirantis

Radio Cloud Native by Mirantis

Welcome to Radio Cloud Native by Mirantis, your go-to podcast for all things cloud native, Kubernetes, and Open Source. Join us as we explore the latest trends, innovative solutions, and open source projects shaping the modern cloud landscape. For related links and/or diagrams, please check out the resources linked in the Chapters.
In this episode, Solution Architecture Manager Michael Tillman of Mirantis covers everything you need to know about DISA STIG, FEDRAMP, and the associated security requirements needed to achieve Authorization to Operate (ATO).
ATO is a requirement for applications running in the US Federal and State governments, but the security stipulations required in this industry represent the best security practices for cloud native applications in general. With that being said, regardless of whether you need specific approvals for specific workloads, the security framework and solution architecture of the Mirantis Stack of solutions can help your organization ensure that not only your workloads meet the highest standards of security, but also - if you choose to do so - your organization can get ATO much faster than if you were leveraging other solutions that don't meet the Mirantis security standards.
A full list of topics for this week's episode include:

• Defining cloud native applications
• Common challenges with cloud native applications
• DISA STIG
• FEDRAMP
• Defining a "Secure Stack"
• Mirantis secure container solutions
• How to partner with Mirantis for faster ATO
• The complete stack of Mirantis cloud native solutions
