Let's be real: Vampires and Zombies are Scary, But, Seeing 'Error: undefined is not a function' in the console at 5 PM on a Friday? TERRIFYING. 💀 We know the real haunted houses are often in legacy code. This Halloween, the Nirmata team wishes you a night that's spooky for all the right reasons (and not because of a mysterious cluster outage). What's the one bug, error, or alert that scares you more than any monster? 🎃 #HappyHalloween #DeveloperLife #DevOps #K8s #SpookySeason #Coding #Nirmata

Securing your infrastructure from the start is critical, but how do you enforce policy-as-code without slowing down your Terraform workflows? Our new technical guide details the Nirmata and Terraform Cloud (TFC) Run Task integration, a powerful solution that bridges the gap between provisioning and policy. This integration allows you to: ✅ Shift-Left Governance: Validate Terraform plans against Kyverno-based policies before resources are ever created. ✅ Ensure Continuous Compliance: Go beyond pre-flight checks with runtime validation, drift detection, and automated remediation. ✅ Enable Secure-by-Design IaC: Create a fully automated workflow that covers your infrastructure from provision to policy. Stop by the Nirmata booth #1340 at KubeCon to see a live demo of this integration in action!

Stop just detecting K8s policy violations. Start auto-remediating them. Managing Kubernetes policies is critical for security and compliance, but what happens after a violation is detected? Alert fatigue is real, and manual remediation is slow and error-prone. We're excited to introduce the AI-powered Remediator Agent for Kubernetes. It’s the missing link between detection and action. Our new agent doesn't just tell you what's wrong; it uses AI to understand the policy intent, generate a clean fix, and open a Pull Request, complete with a plain-English explanation. This is how we move from policy enforcement to true policy automation. We break down how it works in our new blog post: https://hubs.ly/Q03QGkNL0 Attending KubeCon North America? Don't miss your chance to see the Remediator Agent live. Stop manually fixing YAML files and see the future of automated, GitOps-aligned remediation.
