AI Description
We use machine learning to automatically baseline container behavior for the purpose of wrapping a container in a security envelope that prevents it from performing activities that are not necessary in the application context. In policy management, Aqua’s Image Profiles are set either manually or using Aqua’s machine learning capabilities, or a combination of both. They include controls for inbound and outbound networking, read only files and directories, allowed executables, host resource limits, volumes access, user inside the container, and more. Machine learning allows us to automatically profile container behavior, whitelisting runtime parameters such as system calls, file access, network access, and executables, improving isolation and preventing privilege escalation.
