Container Assets

CloudGuard provides workload protection for these container assets:

• Container A lightweight and portable executable image that contains software and all of its dependencies. Containers decouple applications from underlying host infrastructure to make deployment easier in different cloud or OS environments, and for easier scaling. Environments

  • Clusters

  • Registries

• Container Workloads (Kubernetes Kubernetes, often abbreviated as “K8s”, orchestrates containerized applications to run on a cluster of hosts. pods, ReplicaSets A ReplicaSet (aims to) maintain a set of replica Pods running at any given time., Deployments, DaemonSets DaemonSet ensures a copy of a Pod is running across a set of nodes in a cluster. Used to deploy system daemons such as log collectors and monitoring agents that typically must run on every Node., CronJobs, etc.)

• Container Images

  • Kubernetes images

  • ShiftLeft The ShiftLeft tool scans source code, containers and serverless functions, looking for vulnerabilities including those associated with the Log4j tool. This tool alerts the security and DevOps teams if any vulnerabilities are detected in the pre-build phase, ensuring that vulnerable code is not deployed. images

  • Container Registry A collection of repositories used to store and access container images. images
