AccuKnox Enterprise Architecture

Welcome to the AccuKnox Enterprise CNAPP Suite, your comprehensive solution for cloud-native application protection. AccuKnox is designed to offer end-to-end security throughout the software development lifecycle, integrating various security measures to ensure robust defense across all deployment phases.

Cloud-Native Deployment Challenges

In cloud-native deployments, security challenges can arise at different stages -

  1. Code Build Phase: Issues like vulnerable code, insecure configurations, and hardcoded secrets.

  2. Deployment Phase: Problems with malicious images, image poisoning, and insecure CI/CD pipelines.

  3. Final Phase: Runtime security threats such as zero-day attacks, crypto-mining, data exfiltrations, and undetected malware.

AccuKnox CNAPP Unified cloud-native security platform addressing security across software development lifecycle

Key Security Phases

  • Development: Vulnerable code, insecure configs, hardcoded secrets
  • Deployment: Malicious images, CI/CD pipeline risks
  • Runtime: Zero-day attacks, crypto mining, data exfiltration

Core CNAPP Challenges

  • Fragmented security tools
  • Lack of integrated reporting
  • Disconnected security findings

Technical Capabilities

  • Static and dynamic security measures
  • CI/CD pipeline integration
  • SIEM tool compatibility (Jira, Slack, Splunk, Rsyslog)
  • Normalized security findings correlation

Security Layers

  • Identity Management: Kubernetes Identity and Entitlement Management (KIEM)

  • Static Security: Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM)

  • Run-time Security: Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP)

Unique Differentiators

  • Zero-Trust Security implements allow-based policies to ensure that only specific actions are permitted, following the principle of "never trust, always verify."

  • Multi-Cloud Coverage for a consolidated dashboard and asset inventory across multiple cloud accounts.

  • Multi-tool integration for a unified risk assessment view across cloud, container, cluster, and code assets (4C coverage).

  • Inline Mitigation prevents attacks in real-time using advanced Linux Security Modules (LSMs) like AppArmor, BPF-LSM, and SELinux.

  • Agent-Based and Agentless Scanning supports both methods for comprehensive infrastructure security.

  • Shift Left Defense allows proactive thwarting of advanced "Zero Day" attacks by addressing security issues early in the development phase.

  • Real-Time Protection with real-time defense mechanisms against zero-day attacks.

  • Integrated Testing to incorporate Static Application Security Testing (SAST), Software Composition Analysis (SCA), and Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST).

Compliance

AccuKnox's CNAPP supports over 30 compliance frameworks, including HIPAA, GDPR, SOC2, ISO 27001, and more, ensuring adherence to a wide range of industry standards and regulations. We guarantee a robust, unified approach to cloud security that spans all stages of the development lifecycle, providing peace of mind and comprehensive protection against emerging threats.
