Bridging the Gap: DevOps, SRE, and the Cybersecurity Imperative
The tech world is a fast-paced arena, and staying ahead of the curve demands seamless collaboration. Development (Dev) and Operations (Ops) teams have long recognised the power of joining forces in a DevOps approach. Now, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) adds another layer to this dynamic duo, with a laser focus on building reliable and scalable systems. But in this age of digital transformation, there's a third player demanding equal attention: Cybersecurity.
Mesoform's State of the Union report dives deep into this interconnected landscape. We're not just talking about tools and technologies – this report explores the people and the cultures that make these systems tick. From how teams are structured and how they communicate to the very foundations of their technology choices, we'll uncover the hidden links between DevOps, SRE, and the ever-present need for security.
If you're in the IT world, you've probably heard whispers of "platform engineering". But is it just another buzzword, or is it something more? Let me tell you, this is one trend you don't want to miss.
In the fast-paced and interconnected digital landscape, the complexity of managing diverse IT systems and networks has surged. To tackle this challenge, organisations are increasingly turning to centralised monitoring, a robust approach that provides a unified and comprehensive view of their entire infrastructure. Centralised monitoring involves consolidating the monitoring of various components, systems, cloud environments and applications into a centralised platform, offering real-time insights and analytics. This shift from siloed monitoring to a centralised model is driven by the need for enhanced visibility, proactive issue detection, and overall operational efficiency.
In the dynamic world of digital innovation, securing a scalable app deployment remains a formidable challenge. Our recent work for a crypto trading startup mirrors this pursuit: the quest for a robust, lightweight, and highly secure architecture for a trading app. This challenge reflects the industry's demand for fortified security amidst a landscape rife with potential threats. In this particular project, Mesoform was employed, not only to provide site reliability, cloud and DevOps engineering but a complete technical architecture and technology management over the whole project. Guiding platform engineering, software engineering and DevOps, as well as architecture and UI design, our holistic approach aimed to optimise project performance and functionality in order to deploy a Crypto Trading App for a crypto trading startup.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of modern applications, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) play a pivotal role in enabling connectivity and functionality. However, as the reliance on APIs grows, so do the security risks associated with them. To address these concerns, the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) released the "API Security Top 10" 2023, a comprehensive list of the most critical API security risks. This year they released the 2023 update to those risks, this blog explores the key findings and recommendations.
