Got 5 Minutes? Secure Your Python Website with Zero Trust.

· 8 min read

I have a website I built using Django; it's just a personal site meant to be used by friends and family. This makes it a perfect fit for zero trust as, I can hide it from the world and hand out specific access to friends and family I want to allow to use it. The site has all sorts of tools to keep track of things as a family. We have the "Tool Pool" so each friend or family member can see who has what special tools so they can borrow them instead of buying their own, and it keeps track of who borrowed what. There's another called "Packer Tracker" which keeps track of what you bring on a camping trip (personal or shared trip) so you can review what was missing or isn't needed for future trips and see what other people are bringing on a shared trip. There are many others, but, in any case, this site is just a personal site to be used on an invite-only basis, so I don't need the world to have access to it, but I do want it publicly available for those using it. So, I spun up an Oracle cloud instance (totally free "forever") and hosted it there. Currently, I create an account and send a link to anyone who wants to use it. The problem is it's still publicly accessible and prone to security issues from unwanted guests and/or web crawlers. I already have an OpenZiti zero trust network running in another Oracle cloud instance where I've secured my NAS, CCTV, and HomeAssistant access with zero trust, so why not just add this?

Mobile Point of Sale (mPOS) app – embed zero trust networking

Written with Sagarkumar S of Enlume Technologies

Point of sale application developers and solution providers need to provide secure, reliable applications to retailers.  However, retailers need to create duplicate networks with extra hardware and configuration to separate their point of sale (POS) data for PCI compliance.  Now, there is a better way.  Use the simple Ziti SDKs to embed zero trust networking, inside the POS app, so that the POS app is secure on any network - micro-segmented and zero trust.
