AccuKnox vs. SentinelOne
Parameters
Application Security Coverage
Registry scan (ECR, GCR, Nexus, Docker Hub, ACR, Harbor, Quay, jFrog, OpenShift, GAR)
Partially supported
Identify 3rd party dependencies and their vulnerabilities (SCA), scan for vulnerability in code (SAST) and evaluate applications for vulnerabilities (DAST)
Supports SCA and SBOM but SAST, DAST is not supported
Integrate with CI/CD for Shift Left automation with prioritization
Supports CI/CD integration
Observability & Remediation
Deep observability with context by making use of eBPF
Uses eBPF
Auto generation of policies based on the activity discovered inside containers to prevent anything that deviates from it
Detect and respond approach to deal with issues identified at runtime
Graphical view of identities in Kubernetes with customizable queries to define least permissive posture
It provides risk-assessment, detect user activity and authentication error
Hardening and Prevention
Hardening policies based on compliances and best practices to restrict activities at the kernel layer
Detection rules for responding to events
Proactive prevention of attacks by denying access at the kernel layer using LSMs
Identifies issues in realtime and reacts to attacks as they happen
Admission controller and PSA to prevent vulnerable deployments
Does not have admission controller
Deployment Models
Air-gapped and on-prem support
Detection rules for responding to events
Support for hybrid environment of on-prem + cloud
Supports hybrid environment
Agent based protection and scanners for identifying vulnerabilities
Both Agentless and Agent based supported
Open vs Proprietary
Built on KubeArmor which is a CNCF sandbox project
Completely proprietary solution
Integrates with open source scanners to provide a single platform view
Does not integrate with open source security tools
Integrations
Integrates with both open source and proprietary security solutions to act as a single platform to track security issues
Integrates with Webhook
Integrates with both open source and proprietary security solutions to provide visibility into security insight from a single platform
Integrates with Snyk
Future Proof Security
5G and IoT/Edge Security
Does not offer IoT/Edge security
Only CNAPP without of the box Kubernetes security via posture management (KSPM) & identity management (KIEM)
Provides limited coverage for KSPM, does not offer KIEM for identity management
AI Security with ModelKnox (AI-SPM)
SentinelOne’s AISPM
