RUNTIME SECURITY - Aqua Cloud Native Security, Container Security & Serverless Security Mon, 15 Jul 2024 11:12:49 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.5 Understanding the Importance of Runtime Security in Cloud Native Environments https://www.aquasec.com/blog/understanding-the-importance-of-runtime-security-in-cloud-native-environments/ Mon, 17 Jun 2024 12:46:23 +0000 https://www.aquasec.com/?p=20495 Understanding the Importance of Runtime Security in Cloud Native EnvironmentsGartner has estimated that “90% of global organizations will be running containerized applications in production by 2026—up from 40% in 2021.”   The inherent benefits of cloud native application development enable developers to introduce new code into the environment at an accelerated rate. However, the dynamic nature of these environments amplifies the risks associated with runtime …]]> Combat Zero-Day Threats with Aqua’s New eBPF Lightning Enforcer https://www.aquasec.com/blog/combat-zero-day-threats-with-aquas-ebpf-lightning-enforcer/ Tue, 22 Nov 2022 11:00:00 +0000 https://www.aquasec.com/?p=14558 Combat Zero-Day Threats with Aqua’s New eBPF Lightning EnforcerWe are excited to announce the latest addition to our portfolio, our eBPF-based Aqua Lightning Enforcer. It’s designed for busy security professionals to detect zero-day attacks and sophisticated threats that occur in runtime. It utilizes eBPF technology, making it more effective, safer, and faster. The new Lightning Enforcer and our Runtime Protection solution is an …]]> Tracee Release: Rules Detect Attackers Out-of-the-Box https://www.aquasec.com/blog/tracee-rules-detect-attackers-out-of-the-box/ Thu, 10 Nov 2022 11:00:00 +0000 https://www.aquasec.com/?p=14559 Tracee Release: Rules Detect Attackers Out-of-the-BoxAqua Tracee is an open source runtime security and forensics tool for Linux. It can help you detect suspicious behavior at runtime using an extensive data collection engine and a sophisticated rules engine. You can further read about the development of Tracee in our blog The Story of Tracee: The Path to Runtime Security Tool. …]]> Protecting Workloads Against Real-World Attacks With Ease https://www.aquasec.com/blog/workload-protection-realtime-security/ Thu, 04 Aug 2022 15:44:44 +0000 https://www.aquasec.com/?p=14673 Protecting Workloads Against Real-World Attacks With EaseAttackers are sophisticated, there is always a lag between zero days and mitigation, and production workloads are critical. So why is the adoption of runtime security for cloud native applications still lower than shift-left security practices for the same applications? We will discuss this, along with the solution, in this blog. Earlier this week, we …]]> Detect and Prevent Exploits in Runtime with Vulnerability Shielding https://www.aquasec.com/blog/runtime-vulnerability-shielding/ Wed, 07 Jul 2021 10:09:41 +0000 https://www.aquasec.com/?p=15215 Detect and Prevent Exploits in Runtime with Vulnerability ShieldingA single vulnerability in one of the code dependencies can put an entire application at risk, yet 48% of organizations knowingly push vulnerable code into production regularly. With a heavy reliance on open source software to build applications, patching a myriad of vulnerabilities has become an extremely hard and time-consuming task. It’s not always possible, …]]> Blocking Attacks in Runtime with Drift Prevention https://www.aquasec.com/blog/cloud-native-security-drift-prevention/ Thu, 19 Mar 2020 12:16:53 +0000 https://www.aquasec.com/?p=15620 Blocking Attacks in Runtime with Drift PreventionDrift prevention is the cloud native answer to malware, worms and zero-day exploits. It’s also one of the best things to happen to security since the firewall, and finally a departure from the defeatist “we can’t really stop attacks so let’s not try” approach that’s been plaguing the mindset of security professionals in recent years …]]> AWS Fargate Security, and The Importance of Immutability https://www.aquasec.com/blog/active-workload-protection-on-aws-fargate/ Fri, 29 Jun 2018 14:23:05 +0000 https://www.aquasec.com/?p=15978 AWS Fargate Security, and The Importance of ImmutabilityBack in March we announced Aqua MicroEnforcer, a new deployment technology that enabled us to secure runtime workload running on AWS Fargate and Azure Container Instances. Since then we’ve seen a lot of interest from customers who see these services not only as a way to deploy containers on demand for spillover capacity, or for …]]>
