Aqua at Age Five: Recognized Market Leader and $1 Billion Company

Today we reached an important milestone in our 5-year history – in a single funding round we’ve more than doubled our venture funding to date and achieved a valuation of $1Bn, often referred to as “unicorn” status. While I’m thrilled to have reached this milestone with Aqua, it’s not the valuation itself that I’m proud …

Cloud Native Forensics: Challenges and Best Practices

As no individual, business, or government is immune from being the victim of the next large-scale cyberattack, organizations need capabilities to help identify, contain, and investigate what seems like an inevitable incident. By performing forensic analysis, you can gain and leverage valuable insights to take the right steps to contain and mitigate the attack while …

Vulnerability Scanning for Kubernetes Applications: Why and How

If you’re looking to improve the security posture of your Kubernetes applications, you can get a lot of bang for your buck with vulnerability scanning. In this blog, I’ll talk about the fundamentals of scanning container images: how to pick a vulnerability scanner, when to use it in the application pipeline, and why you should …

Acting on Cloud Native Security Data with Splunk

With no shortage of attacks targeting the cloud native stack, having a holistic view of your environment is paramount to contain and mitigate the attack, as well as to perform forensic analysis after the fact. In order to provide you with deeper insights into malicious and suspicious activity in your cloud native environment, we joined …

Infographic: What is CSPM and Why You Need It

As a major trend in 2020, enterprises have been increasingly adopting multi-cloud to elevate efficiency and maintain flexibility and independence. But multi-cloud environments are more complex and harder to secure, leading to more cloud service misconfigurations and breaches. Making matters worse, many organizations still believe that their cloud provider will protect them, but the truth …

Auto-Remediation for Secure Configuration in Azure Cloud

Each day, Aqua monitors millions of cloud infrastructure changes for misconfigurations, and control-plane events for security issues or malicious activity in our users’ cloud accounts. But we’ve learned that just identifying misconfigurations is not enough to protect cloud assets in a modern fast-paced environment. Operating efficiently at scale requires fixing security issues on the fly. …

Runtime Protection for K8s Workloads Using a Mutating Admission Controller

Although Kubernetes has certainly matured into a well-adopted container orchestrator platform, it remains complex to manage and secure. Coupling this with a growing attack surface and bad actors trying to exploit it, organizations must implement a comprehensive approach to securing their K8s applications. Aqua aims to tame the complexity of securing K8s-based applications by leveraging …

Introducing KSPM by Aqua: Kubernetes Security Posture Management

With the rapid adoption of Kubernetes, an unforeseen consequence has emerged — there simply aren’t enough trained K8s experts to go around, let alone K8s security experts. Kubernetes environments have increased in size and complexity, expanding its attack surface, and ultimately heightening its susceptibility to exploitation. Given that the configuration of K8s involves many different …

Securing Container Workloads on AWS Bottlerocket

We’ve been working with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to extend the Aqua cloud native security platform to support AWS Bottlerocket — a purpose-built, Linux-based, open source OS for running containers on virtual machines or bare metal hosts — which is now GA. This combined effort ensures that AWS customers who use this new OS will …

Using Trivy to Discover Vulnerabilities in VS Code Projects

For most of us developers, our container security protocol involves some sort of static image scan for vulnerabilities. Unfortunately, to do this usually involves jumping out of one type of software program, like a code editor, to open a completely separate tool to perform the scanning. Well, the open source team at Aqua recognized the …
