Security-focused chaos engineering experiments for the cloud

Cloud applications face challenges in identifying system failures due to their large scale and complexity. To proactively find potential points of failure within cloud infrastructure, engineers are turning to chaos engineering (CE). Security-focused CE verifies that systems respond appropriately to common threats, similar to red, blue, and purple teaming. Key steps for security-focused chaos engineering include questioning, identifying, experimenting, and detecting vulnerabilities or other security issues. Practical examples of SCE experiments for Kubernetes include identifying misconfigured API servers and assessing visibility into new resources. Tools like Datadog enhance chaos engineering experiments by automatically discovering common issues that leave systems vulnerable.
