Extends the Dynatrace platform’s existing
security capabilities to enable customers to drive Cloud-Native
Application Protection at scale
Dynatrace (NYSE: DT), the leader in unified observability and
security, today announced it is enhancing its platform with new
Kubernetes Security Posture Management (KSPM) capabilities for
observability-driven security, configuration, and compliance
monitoring. This announcement follows the rapid integration of
Runecast technology into the Dynatrace® platform following the
company’s successful acquisition earlier this year. The new KSPM
offering builds on Dynatrace’s existing security protection
capabilities, including Runtime Vulnerability Analytics (RVA) and
Runtime Application Protection (RAP), strengthening cloud-native
application protection in the Dynatrace platform. These combined
capabilities provide DevSecOps, security, platform engineering, and
SRE teams, who are all responsible for ensuring the security of
Kubernetes environments, with an innovative solution for security
posture and compliance.
“As workloads become more dynamic, integrating KSPM into the
deployment lifecycle is essential for the security of Kubernetes
environments and adherence to best practices and standards,” says
KellyAnn Fitzpatrick, Senior Analyst with RedMonk. “Through a
combination of real-time vulnerability assessments and contextual
security insights, Dynatrace’s new KSPM solution aims to empower
teams to proactively address risks and achieve complete visibility
into their security posture, compliance status, and attack vectors.
Such solutions can enable teams to confidently accelerate their
digital transformation, knowing that their cloud-native environment
is protected.”
Dynatrace’s new KSPM solution, combined with the platform’s
existing RVA and RAP capabilities, enables teams to instantly
detect risks in their Kubernetes deployments and automatically
prioritize remediation based on risk exposure. To achieve this at
scale, Dynatrace uses Davis® hypermodal AI, which combines
predictive and causal AI techniques for precise answers and
automation and generative AI for increased productivity. As a
result, teams can gain comprehensive insights into cloud-native
applications across code, libraries, language runtime, and
container infrastructure. This helps them strengthen the security
posture of their Kubernetes deployments, while also complying with
regulatory frameworks and industry best practices, including those
defined by the Center for Internet Security (CIS).
“While most teams rely on agentless workload scanning to enable
KSPM, this snapshot approach is incapable of providing real-time
insights and often causes a frequency of excessive alerts, without
runtime context, that waste time and make remediation efforts more
confusing,” said Bernd Greifeneder, CTO at Dynatrace. “As the
attack surface of cloud applications continues to increase and
attackers are targeting the misconfiguration of cloud
infrastructure, APIs, and the software supply chain itself,
organizations must evolve their solutions and processes to ensure
their cloud technologies, including Kubernetes, are constantly
protected against the latest risks and empower teams to operate
with best practices. Building on the Dynatrace platform’s existing
RVA and RAP capabilities, Dynatrace is delivering an innovative
approach to KSPM that we believe sets us apart, providing teams
with real-time insights, automated compliance, and actionable
advice that free up resources and reduce exposure risk.”
Dynatrace Kubernetes Security Posture Management is expected to
be generally available in the second half of 2024.
