"These containers are encrypted at rest, in transit, and even while running! There is no intermediate decrypted container left lying around on disk or in memory. Data is decrypted totally in kernel space."

Kudos to Satish Chebrolu and the rest of the #dev #team at Sylabs Inc. for their efforts adding support for building and running encrypted Apptainer (formerly Singularity) containers.

It’s not too late! There's still time to register for our first live #webinar “Ensuring Successful Production Deployments of Apptainer (formerly Singularity) with Sylabs' Container Services” presented by Sylabs Inc. Solutions Architect Randy Herban. sylabs.io/webinars/2019-…

Thank you Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre for hosting Sylabs Inc. Software Engineer Michael Bauer on August 30. Michael will be presenting an Intro to Apptainer (formerly Singularity) training course from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm in the ARRC Boardroom. pawsey.org.au/event/eoi-for-…

The last private tour of the K-Computer before the official farewell ceremony on Friday. The honor goes to Franck Cappello and his group’s visitors from Argonne NL. Next week all of this will be gone forever...

Eduardo Arango @lizrice Kris Nóva Don’t forget absolute containerized data provenance via layered cryptographic signatures! We’ve already been asked if Aqua could be a signing authority to inject their security trust into the DevOps workflow for Singularity containers. Yes, is our answer to working with Aqua!
