Preventing cloud and container vulnerabilities

Vulnerabilities are software bugs or weaknesses that could be used by an attacker. They could be present in the operating system, application code, and third-party code dependencies, such as libraries, frameworks, programming scripts, and so on. By taking a secure DevOps approach and identifying vulnerabilities early in development, you avoid frustrating developers with delays when an application is ready for production.

Reducing vulnerability noise with Sysdig

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!

Eliminate noise and prioritize the vulnerabilities that really matter with Risk Spotlight

Is your team drowning in container vulnerability noise? Are you spending a lot of time figuring out where to focus resources on and still missing dangerous vulnerabilities? Know that you are not alone. Container environments revolutionized app development by enabling unprecedented velocity, but not without a price. The use of readily available container images of third-party and open-source code enabled much faster cycles, but also facilitated the introduction of vulnerabilities in the application.

Are vulnerability scores misleading you? Understanding CVSS severity and using them effectively

Vulnerabilities are everywhere. Vetting, mitigating, and remediating them at scale is exhausting for security practitioners. Let’s keep in mind that no organization has the capacity to find and fix all vulnerabilities. The key is to understand what a vulnerability is, interpret the meanings of the CVSS score, and prioritize and effectively use resources within constrained time limits or delivery windows. Since 2016, new vulnerabilities reported each year have nearly tripled.
