Cloud Workload Defense

Gartner defines cloud workload protection platforms (CWPP) as "workload-centric security products that protect server workloads in hybrid, multicloud data center environments. Cloud workload protection focuses specifically on securing the workloads. Which includes virtual machines, containers, serverless functions deployed within cloud environments. The primary goal of cloud workload security is to provide compliance and protects workloads from various threats and vulnerabilities, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the applications and data they host.

Key aspects of cloud workload defense include

Vulnerability Management

Regularly scanning cloud workloads for known vulnerabilities and misconfiguration in Virtual servers, Kubernetes containers & serverless functions and understand what is running and configured on Cloud workloads in your cloud environment.

Image assurance

Image assurance scans container images, for known vulnerabilities for potential security issues in images and enforce policies that only trusted image registries and repositories are used and application is using trusted image.

Runtime Protection

CWPP runtime projections provides virtual machines and container security during run time within cloud environment and provides active threat protection against known and unknown threats by creating baseline, network socket connection monitoring or monitoring malicious connections.

Admission Controller

Admin controllers provides Governance for cluster environment which ensures least privilege access and only trusted container images can be deployed in Kubernetes environments.

Intrusion Detection

Automatic analysis of all account activity, cluster operations and application traffic flow, in order to continuously detect suspicious behaviour.
