As businesses change to use technology more, many are using serverless containers for their cloud. It empowers businesses to focus on innovation & development, instead of getting bogged down in the technical details of their technology. But for security teams, this shift presents new challenges. With no access to the underlying infrastructure, traditional security measures fall short. These workloads need a new way to be protected while they’re running.
Security Challenges with Serverless Containers
Serverless computing frees developers from managing infrastructure. However, it also creates opportunities for security vulnerabilities. Since the infrastructure layer is abstracted away, runtime security becomes a daunting task. Traditional security methods are designed for physical servers. So, they don’t work well in the serverless world.
Even though serverless workloads don’t have physical servers, they still need strong protection. In fact, a surprising 80% of Docker images have serious security problems. Cyberattacks like ransomware, zero-day attacks, fileless exploits are prevalent, businesses need a powerful solution to stay safe.
Cloud Workload Security: Serverless Containers
Singularity Cloud Workload Security (CWS) is a new way to protect cloud apps that run on serverless technology. It uses smart AI to keep them safe. CWS finds and stops problems as they happen, so your cloud apps keep working. It is speedy and efficient. No matter what kind of attack happens, Singularity CWS takes action right away to stop it and fix any damage. This keeps your cloud apps safe.
Key Features & Benefits
Real-Time Threat Detection & Response
Singularity CWS offers real-time detection of runtime threats, backed by AI-powered insights. It responds to incidents at machine speed. It prevents further exploitation of vulnerabilities before damage is done. It also provides enhanced context with details like image ID & namespace, streamlining investigations.
Forensic Visibility of Ephemeral Workloads
Serverless apps are like short-lived things or temporary things that don’t last long. This makes it hard to investigate them if something goes wrong. Singularity CWS provides detailed forensic visibility. It allows your SOC to access crucial telemetry for threat hunting & incident response.
Automation & Scalability
CWS works well with DevOps tools. It can be added to your software development process easily. It doesn’t need special parts of your computer’s operating system. The admission controller automatically adds the CWS agent to the container. This way it is protected without you having to do anything.
Seamless Integration
It seamlessly fits into your cloud ecosystem making it easy to use in your cloud setup. It enhances your security posture without disrupting your development cycle.
Why Cloud Workload Security Matters?
Serverless infrastructure doesn’t make your workloads invincible. Runtime attacks can still exploit vulnerabilities in containerized environments, potentially crippling your operations.
CWS is very strong at protecting your data without slowing down your apps or using a lot of resources. This gives your team the tools they need to keep your workloads safe and running smoothly.
Wrap Up
Today, businesses need to be able to change & grow quickly to be successful. This means they also need strong cloud security.
Singularity CWS is a new & improved way to protect your cloud apps. It uses smart AI to find problems, stops them right away, and takes action to keep your data safe, no matter where it is.
