🚨 𝗛𝗶𝗱𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗔𝗣𝗜𝘀 = 𝗛𝗶𝗱𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗥𝗶𝘀𝗸𝘀

Most teams secure what they *see*—but what about the endpoints your gateway never touches?

In modern microservices, 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗱𝗼𝘄 𝗔𝗣𝗜𝘀 (undocumented or forgotten endpoints) silently expand your attack surface. These hidden routes can bypass authentication, expose sensitive data, and completely evade your security controls.

🔍 In this blog, we break down:
✔️ What shadow APIs are and how they appear
✔️ Why gateways fail to protect them
✔️ Real-world discovery techniques
✔️ Practical ways to enforce API inventory and security

If you're building or managing APIs, this is a must-read.

Ingress-NGINX retirement is pushing Kubernetes teams to move faster, but migration is where silent breakage happens.

Our latest Cyber Rely blog breaks down how to approach 𝗜𝗻𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝟮𝗚𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗺𝗶𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 with practical guardrails for:
• inventorying ingress dependencies
• validating auth, routing, and TLS behavior
• reducing rollout risk
• catching regressions before production traffic is impacted

If your team is moving from ingress-nginx to Gateway API, this guide is built to help you migrate with more confidence and less guesswork.

Ingress2Gateway Migration: 7 Gateway API Guardrails Plan an Ingress2Gateway migration with guardrails for auth, routing, TLS, rollout, and rollback as teams move from ingress-nginx to Gateway API.

That means no more fixes, no more patches, and more risk for teams that delay migration.

We just published a new guide on how to move to 𝗚𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗔𝗣𝗜 safely, with 7 guardrails focused on the production issues that usually break first: 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗵, 𝗿𝗲𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲𝘀, 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀, 𝗿𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗧𝗟𝗦.

Ingress-NGINX Retirement: 7 Gateway API Guardrails Ingress-NGINX retires in March 2026. Use 7 guardrails to migrate to Gateway API without breaking auth, routing, headers, or TLS.

Runtime feature configuration (feature flags, canary releases, rollout tuning) has become a *production control plane*—and attackers know it. In our latest guide, we break down 𝟳 𝗯𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲-𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗲𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗹𝗮𝗴 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹𝘀 to prevent flag override exploits, harden config/admin APIs, enforce rollout governance, and add forensic-ready telemetry so you can trace every flag flip to an accountable identity. You’ll also get practical rollout patterns (progressive delivery, kill switches, circuit breakers), monitoring + anomaly detection ideas, and rollback/chaos drill examples that engineering teams can apply immediately.
