Container Security
Container Security
Amygdala XDR®’s Container Security module provides visibility and protection for containerized applications and environments. It monitors your containers, images, and registries for vulnerabilities, compliance issues, and anomalous behavior. Container Security uses a combination of host and container-based sensors to collect and analyze data, allowing for early detection and response to potential security incidents. Additionally, it integrates with popular container orchestration platforms such as Kubernetes and Docker Swarm to provide seamless security management.
Technical Description
Amygdala XDR®’s Container Security is designed to provide security monitoring for containerized environments, such as Docker and Kubernetes. The main goal of this module is to detect and respond to threats and anomalies within containerized applications and the infrastructure they run on.
Amygdala XDR®’s Container Security module monitors container logs, image vulnerabilities, network traffic, and system calls for potential security threats. It also provides policy-based compliance monitoring to ensure that the containerized environment is configured and running according to best practices and security standards.
The technology used by Amygdala XDR®’s Container Security includes integration with Docker and Kubernetes APIs, as well as the use of open-source security tools like Sysdig Falco, which is used for runtime container security. It also includes the use of vulnerability databases like the National Vulnerability Database (NVD) to detect and identify vulnerabilities in container images.
Amygdala XDR®’s Container Security is designed to work seamlessly with other Amygdala XDR® modules, such as intrusion detection and log analysis, to provide a complete security monitoring solution for containerized environments.

It provides continuous monitoring of container images, host, and orchestration platforms to detect vulnerabilities and configuration issues.
Security Assessment
It performs automatic security assessments of Docker containers and Kubernetes environments.
Risk Management
It provides a risk score for containers and clusters based on the severity of vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and other security issues.
Compliance
It can help you achieve compliance with industry security standards by detecting security issues and misconfigurations.
Integration
It integrates with popular container platforms like Docker and Kubernetes, and also with orchestration platforms like Docker Swarm and OpenShift
Technology-Supported, Protocols
Amygdala XDR®’s Container Security supports various security and network protocols, such as TLS/SSL, SSH, and IPsec, as well as container technologies like Docker and Kubernetes. It also leverages several security-related tools and technologies, such as Docker Bench, OpenSCAP, and Kubernetes CIS Benchmark, to provide comprehensive container security monitoring and threat detection capabilities. Additionally, Amygdala XDR®’s Container Security integrates with cloud platforms like AWS and Azure to provide centralized monitoring and management of container environments.
Module Dependency
Amygdala XDR®’s Container Security module depends on several libraries and projects, including:
Docker API
Amygdala XDR®'s Container Security uses Docker API to communicate with the Docker daemon to retrieve information about running containers and their configurations.
Kubernetes API
Amygdala XDR®'s Container Security integrates with Kubernetes API to access information about the container orchestration and gain visibility into the Kubernetes environment.
Falco
Amygdala XDR®'s Container Security leverages Falco, an open-source runtime security tool, to detect and alert suspicious activity in containerized environments. Falco uses kernel tracing to capture system calls and analyze container behavior.
Sysdig
Amygdala XDR®'s Container Security also integrates with Sysdig, a container security and monitoring platform, to provide additional visibility and threat detection capabilities.
Go programming language
Amygdala XDR®'s Container Security is developed in Go, a popular programming language known for its efficiency and concurrency support.
