Capsule8 Protect delivers high-performance attack protection for Linux production environments, regardless of if they’re containerized, virtualized, or bare metal. It uses distributed, streaming analytics combined with high-fidelity data that detects and responds to attacks the instant they’re attempted, according to the company.

Container security challenges were also front and center at Black Hat 2017…. Capsule8 CTO Dino Dai Zovi discussed how new data-center-level operating systems – including Docker Enterprise – have changed attack vectors and made single-node privilege escalation and persistence less useful to attackers. He said companies need a different tactic when attacking and defending entire clusters versus single machines.
