Qualys announced Container Runtime Security, which provides runtime defense capabilities for containerized applications.

Qualys Runtime Container Security, once instrumented in the image, will work within each container irrespective of where the container is instantiated and does not need any additional administration containers.

"Enforcing security best practices, mitigating attacks and monitoring are key use cases for container runtime security. Qualys Container Runtime Security will be key to further extending our detection and response capabilities to containerized workloads running on any container infrastructure."

Instrument container images in the CI/CD build pipeline with an innovative "Follow the image" instrumentation approach which allows for standardized, guaranteed container runtime security across all types of container environments like Docker, Kubernetes, AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service, AWS Elastic Container Service, Azure Kubernetes Service, and Google Kubernetes Engine, as well as including container-as-a-service environments like Azure Container Instances, AWS Fargate and Google CloudRun.

"Therefore, we must build security into cloud workloads and extend protection into running containers. Qualys brings defense capabilities to our Container Security solution with the addition of policy-driven behavior detection and response capabilities to protect running containers on-premises, in private clouds or in container-as-a-service public clouds."
