Containerization

Continuous container security

The agility of containers comes with security troubles.

Containerization is a concept that is growing rapidly, becoming the go-to solution for efficient and scalable application delivery. Containers have revolutionized the way applications are packaged, shipped, and run, with numerous benefits such as portability, efficiency, scalability, and rapid deployment.

However, this newfound agility comes with its own set of challenges — with security being a top concern. Many organizations struggle to keep up with this technology and secure their systems. Traditional security processes and procedures will no longer work with containerization.

SHI can partner with your organization to ensure your containers are secure from unwanted threats and risks. We will help you implement and follow effective security strategies by applying security tools, processes, and policies to protect container-based workloads.

Vulnerability scanning

Regular vulnerability scans are essential for container security. Tools like Clair and Trivy help detect issues in container images before deployment, reducing the risk of introducing known threats into your environment.

Patch management

Unpatched containers are prime targets for automated attacks. While patching in containerized environments differs from traditional systems, SHI’s solutions streamline the rollout process—helping you stay ahead of threats and maintain secure deployments.

Access control

Strong access controls are vital for container security. Implement role-based access control (RBAC) in Kubernetes to define user permissions, limit exposure, and ensure only authorized personnel can interact with critical systems.

Network security

Protect your containerized applications with layered network defenses. Use segmentation, enforce security policies, and deploy firewalls and intrusion detection systems to control traffic and isolate workloads effectively.
