Problem
Organizations face challenges in securing cloud-native applications and infrastructure across public, private, and hybrid cloud environments, especially with the increasing complexity of Kubernetes and the need for continuous compliance. Existing security tools often lack a unified view and the ability to proactively prevent zero-day attacks and ransomware.
Solution
AccuKnox provides a Zero Trust Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) that enables DevSecOps and infrastructure security teams to detect, prioritize, prevent, and protect against cloud attacks. The platform offers a unified dashboard and asset inventory across multiple cloud accounts, integrating code repositories, IaC code, and container registries for comprehensive risk assessment. AccuKnox leverages a zero-trust approach with allow-based policies and inline mitigation using Linux Security Modules (LSMs) like AppArmor, BPF-LSM, and SELinux to prevent malicious attacks in real-time. The CNAPP streamlines vulnerability triage, minimizes alert fatigue, and ensures continuous diagnostics and mitigation across Kubernetes and traditional Virtual Machine workloads.
Target Audience
AccuKnox targets DevSecOps and infrastructure security teams, Kubernetes practitioners, and organizations seeking to secure cloud-native applications and infrastructure across public, private, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments.
