AccuKnox delivers a CNAPP purpose-built for regulated financial institutions. This UAE-based Islamic bank needed continuous compliance across Azure CIS, PCI, and SOC 2 Type II — without disrupting Sharia-compliant banking operations running on AKS.
Challenges
- No unified visibility across 6 Azure subscriptions to continuously validate posture against Azure CIS, PCI, and SOC 2 Type II.
- AKS production workloads ran without a runtime security layer, leaving the bank exposed to in-cluster threats without detection.
- Container images in ACR were not scanned, allowing vulnerable images into production without any CVE assessment.
- No agentless assessment capability to inspect Azure resources without disrupting live regulated banking operations.
Solutions
- Deployed CSPM across all 6 Azure subscriptions for continuous benchmarking against Azure CIS, PCI, and SOC 2 Type II controls.
- Implemented KSPM and CWPP on AKS to harden cluster configuration and detect runtime threats in active workloads.
- Integrated container image scanning with ACR to catch vulnerabilities before images reach production.
- Ran agentless risk assessment across all subscriptions — surfacing 300+ unique vulnerabilities with zero operational disruption.
“AccuKnox gave us continuous visibility across our entire Azure footprint — from cloud configuration to container images to runtime workloads. We now meet CIS, PCI, and SOC 2 requirements without stitching together multiple tools.”

Outcomes
- Detected 300+ unique vulnerabilities across 6 Azure subscriptions — zero disruption to banking operations.
- Achieved continuous CIS, PCI, and SOC 2 Type II compliance via automated CSPM monitoring.
- Closed the AKS runtime security gap with live threat detection across production workloads.
- Eliminated ACR image blind spots by scanning containers before production deployment.
- Consolidated cloud, container, and runtime security into a single AccuKnox Managed OnPrem deployment — reducing toolchain complexity across a regulated environment.
