Why a Cloud Security Platform Approach is Critical

Robust runtime protection

When it comes to runtime protection, Cloud Security offers comprehensive runtime protection that plays a critical role in detecting and blocking threats and vulnerabilities in real time. By monitoring workloads continuously and responding to potential security incidents promptly, Cloud Security provides organizations with a robust defense mechanism against evolving cyber threats. This real-time protection ensures that organizations can maintain the integrity of their cloud environments and respond swiftly to security incidents as they arise.

The architecture above shows you how to operate in the cloud the right way, with development, security, and operations team working together to identify and remediate risks in CI/CD pipelines, and during runtime for modern applications running in container clusters.

The runtime security monitors for any newly discovered vulnerabilities while operating within the cluster, and it aids in the detection of suspicious activities by integrating with eBPF for high-performance monitoring of container clusters.

Conclusion

Developing securely in the cloud without slowing down innovation is paramount for cloud builders. And as the speed of innovation continues to accelerate, it's clear that siloed, disconnected point products can no longer keep up. A cloud security platform with attack surface and vulnerability management capabilities, robust third-party integrations, threat intelligence feeds, and built-in runtime protection is paramount to meeting security and business goals.
