4. Does AccuKnox provide auto discovery of assets and workloads?

Yes, AccuKnox can auto discover assets in the cloud by leveraging the cloud native tools.

For workloads, AccuKnox agents will provide the visibility data.

5. Do I need to enable native security services for AWS to get data into AccuKnox?

AccuKnox only requires an IAM role to be created with read only access to be able to get data from AWS. Security Hub and Macie can be optionally enabled for AccuKnox to gather richer telemetry data with more context.

6. What are the Hypervisors or Virtualized Environments that are supported by AccuKnox?

AccuKnox technology does not integrate at the VM virtualization layer. AccuKnox tech integrates at the operating system layer and ensures that the right hardening/enforcement for process executions, network access, and file access is in place. Thus AccuKnox can operate on any virtualization tech provided that the underlying VM uses Linux as its operating system.

7. What are the integration tools and registries that are supported by AccuKnox?

AccuKnox can integrate multiple Cloud Account, Registries, SIEM platform, Ticketing or Notifications Tools and the list is ever growing. AccuKnox is pretty flexible to support the progression of the list with the customer's request as our roadmap item. Some of the supported today are as follows:

  • Security Events/SIEM : Splunk, Rsyslog, AWS CloudWatch, Elastic Search, Webhooks, Azure Sentinel

  • Notification Tools: Slack, Jira, PagerDuty, Emails

  • Ticketing Tools: Jira, FreshService, Connectwise, Zendesk

  • Registries: Nexus, ECR, GCR, DockerHub, ACR, Harbor

Integrations

8. Can AccuKnox help in Monitoring?

  • With AccuKnox, you can create monitors for assets or group of assets to get alerts for changes observed in their Metadata (software version etc)

  • Our Drift detection capability is inherently doing monitoring of the compliance checks (pass/fail) that have changed between scans.

  • We collect alerts and telemetry generated by Kubearmor and cillium. These alerts are part of our CWPP offering. These alerts are generated for the events that have violated/complied with a policy.

  • For these alerts you can have notification enabled as well through channels like Slack, email etc.

9. What will happen to my application running on a VM?

You get hardening policies via AccuKnox. AccuKnox VM Security protects virtual machines by combining CSPM, Host Scanning, Malware Scanning, CWPP, Host Hardening, and Compliance Benchmarking to prevent unauthorized access, safeguard data, and ensure compliance. It offers continuous vulnerability scanning, real-time threat detection, and remediation while minimizing the attack surface with hardened hosts and strong access controls. Overall, it provides proactive, real-time layered security and compliance assurance for virtualized environments.
