Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) is arguably one of the most popular AWS services. With Sysdig, you can secure EC2 by detecting threats and vulnerabilities, controlling configuration and permission risks, and meeting compliance requirements.

The AWS RDS service itself falls on the AWS side of the Shared Responsibility model, but the day-to-day management of the RDS security instances falls on your side. When it comes to shared responsibility, your obligation depends on the AWS services that you deploy, and also other factors including (but not limited to) the sensitivity of your data, your company’s requirements, and applicable laws and regulations.

Reduce vulnerability noise by up to 95%, and focus on what matters with Sysdig. If you feel overloaded with vulnerabilities from container images, then you’re not alone! It's common for DevOps teams to spend hours scrolling through hundreds of vulnerabilities even when just a small fraction poses a real risk. So how do you focus on the vulnerabilities that really matter? Sysdig Secure automatically prioritizes the vulnerabilities that are tied to packages exposed at runtime. Filtering thousands of overwhelming alerts down to only the critical ones that you should spend your time on!

Security has to change, cloud native is now. Sysdig: Secure your Cloud from Source to Run. Cloud security that avoids, that alerts, closes gaps, grants access, takes charge. That checks out, that scales up, that keeps up. That’s there From source, to run. That’s Sysdig! A single view of risk. With no blind spots. Rich context to prioritize what matters. With no guesswork. A platform based on open standards. With no black boxes.

Serverless is becoming mainstream in business applications to achieve scalability, performance, and cost efficiency without managing the underlying infrastructure. Our security research team will explain a real attack scenario from the black box and white box perspective on how a vulnerable AWS Lambda function could be used by attackers as initial access into your cloud environment. Finally, we show the best practices to mitigate this vector of attack.

The fifth annual Sysdig Cloud-Native Security and Usage Report digs into how Sysdig customers of all sizes and industries are using and securing cloud and container environments. We examined the data and found some interesting trends this year that may help you as you work to develop best practices for securing and monitoring your cloud-native environments. This year’s report has new data on cloud security, container vulnerabilities, and Kubernetes capacity planning. Read on to see how you stack up!

A new critical vulnerability has been found in log4j, a widely-used open-source utility used to generate logs inside java applications. The vulnerability CVE-2021-44228, also known as Log4Shell, permits a Remote Code Execution (RCE) allowing the attackers to execute arbitrary code on the host. The log4j utility is popular and used by a huge number of applications and companies, including the famous game Minecraft. It is also used in various Apache frameworks like Struts2, Kafka, Druid, Flink, and many commercial products.

The rapid pace of digital transformation is accelerating the shift to cloud-native applications using containers and Kubernetes to speed the pace of delivery. But application delivery is one thing. Application uptime performance and protection are another. For cloud teams already running production one fact is clear, monitoring and troubleshooting are only the beginning. They also need to own security and compliance for their apps.
