AccuKnox is the best example of how to achieve NIST & MITRE conformance out-of-the-box. The team has done a great job of simplifying security concepts ....
CSPM
AccuKnox Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) leverages agentless technology to revolutionize cloud security by proactively identifying, and prioritizing vulnerabilities and providing a seamless orchestration and management platform
CWPP
Runtime Protection Reinvented: AccuKnox Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP) has a differentiated solution built for runtime security, namely, KubeArmor (open source, now a part of CNCF sandbox project) which leverages eBPF for observability of App Behavior and LSMs for enforcement/in-line mitigation from unknown Zero Day attacks
“Build to Runtime” Security
AccuKnox AppSec offers a unique solution, seamlessly integrating open source and commercial security scanning tools. Our flexible security posture approach efficiently prioritizes critical vulnerabilities, ensuring a comprehensive protection journey from code to cloud
IoT/Edge Sec
AccuKnox offers a comprehensive security solution that provides comprehensive protection from its kernel level runtime security enforcement and container-aware observability.
Some of the most popular projects AccuKnox has led:
1. LF 5G Superblueprint – SEDIMENT Project
2. IBM Open Horizon Edge Workload Protection
Zero Trust 5G Security
AccuKnox has partnered with SRI International to provide advanced 5G Security for a variety of deployment models.
KNOW MOREFAQ
AccuKnox Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) tool scans the cloud account to analyze vulnerabilities and misconfigurations present in the cloud infrastructure based on security best practices & benchmarks.
AccuKnox can help you with handling and prioritizing vulnerabilities
With the ability to mark false positives, wait for 3rd third-party or accepted risk, and many more, you get to act on findings that are remediable and contain the SLA.
AccuKnox provides comprehensive compliance reports based on various security governance for third-party assessment operators (3PAO) auditing.
In the static security solution, unlike other CSPM tools, AccuKnox provides the flexibility to integrate a variety of open source and commercial security scanning tools through built-in parsers to provide you with a composite security posture of your infrastructure. We also correlate and normalize results from a variety of security scanning tools and provide detailed results of vulnerabilities across the infrastructure.
Hardening Policies:
These are block-based policies. Using these policies is suggested based on a compliance framework. and they help to harden the workload against known attacks. Workload hardening and file integrity monitoring can also be implemented using these policies.
Behavioral Policies:
These are allow-based policies and are generated according to application behavior. They create a zero-trust environment for the workload. Using these policies you can implement network micro segmentation and zero trust.
In the ASPM security solution, unlike other tools, AccuKnox provides the flexibility to integrate a variety of open source and commercial security scanning tools through built-in parsers to provide you with a composite security posture of your infrastructure. This is mainly applied in the following context:
Remove dependencies and scoped results
Removing dependencies and scoping results from one tool helps in gaining a contextual understanding of vulnerabilities and prioritization based on which AccuKnox (i) correlates and normalizes results from a variety of security scanning tools and (ii) provides detailed results of vulnerabilities across your cloud infrastructure.
AccuKnox supports the following types of workloads:
K8s orchestrated workloads: KubeArmor is deployed as a K8s daemonset when workloads are deployed as k8s orchestrated containers.
VM/Bare-Metals workloads:
KubeArmor is deployed in system-deemed mode when workloads are deployed on Virtual Machines or Bare Metal i.e. workloads are directly operating as host processes.
