StackRox - KubeCon 2018

VMblog visits the StackRox booth during KubeCon 2018 in Seattle to learn more about their security for containerized, cloud-native application solutions.

StackRox is the only container security platform that makes security for containers and Kubernetes part of the DevOps infrastructure and workflow. They provide context across your full deployment - not just your image - so you know whether a given container is running in test vs. prod, is open to the Internet, or is part of a critical application like your payment card app. That rich context enables us to provide you a stack-ranked list of your riskiest deployments, using far more than vulnerability information. Their platform is also tightly integrated with Kubernetes, so the Security and DevOps teams are using the same infrastructure for network policy enforcement. That integration means Security and DevOps work together. Plus, we apply the CI/CD methodology of a feedback loop to give you an ever-shrinking attack surface, leveraging runtime data to further harden your infrastructure.
