AI-Generated Malware in Panda Image Hides Persistent Linux Threat

The line between human and machine-generated threats is starting to blur. Aqua Nautilus recently uncovered a malware campaign that hints at this unsettling shift. Koske, a sophisticated Linux threat, shows clear signs of AI-assisted development, likely with help from a large language model. With modular payloads, evasive rootkits, and delivery through weaponized image files, Koske …

Operationalizing AI Security: Protecting Workloads Where AI Runs

Security teams are facing urgent questions as AI moves from experimentation to production. What models are running in our environment? Where are they deployed? Are they operating within policy and if not, can we stop them? Existing tools offer limited answers and they rarely provide governance without slowing developers down. To move forward, security leaders …

Securing LLM Apps with Aqua: Beyond the OWASP Checklist

It started with a single LLM API call buried in a product prototype. By the time the team noticed, that call had turned into a full-blown feature. Customers were using it, business logic was being shaped by it, and the security team had not even seen it. That is the pattern we are seeing across …

Trivy Partners with echo: Slashing CVEs at the Source

This is a guest post by Echo Imagine starting every project with CVE-free base images, without adding any extra effort or tooling to your workflow. As developers and security teams, we know how hard it is to shift left when the base you’re building on is already vulnerable. That’s why we’re excited to be a …

VULNERABILITY MANAGEMENT

Patch, Ditch, Dodge, or Deal? Your Call on Vulnerabilities

Security teams are drowning in vulnerabilities. Cloud native environments can generate tens of thousands of new findings every month, even before factoring in CI/CD pipelines and third party dependencies. With this volume, the challenge is not just finding vulnerabilities, it is deciding what to do about them. Fix everything? Impossible. Ignore everything? Risky. The key …

CONTAINER SECURITY

Aqua Helps Close the DevSec Gap with Shift Left Security

Shifting security left has many benefits. Developers today have more ownership and responsibility for secure coding practices than ever before. However, this does not mean that the entire security burden falls on developers. Cloud native environments evolve rapidly. Teams rely on open source packages, build and deploy containers on demand, and push changes through CI/CD …

KUBERNETES SECURITY

What Gartner Wants Every CTO to Know About Kubernetes Security

In the new Gartner Top 10 FAQs for CTOs on container and Kubernetes infrastructure report, there’s a strategic planning assumption that “by 2029, more than 95% of global organizations will be running containerized applications in production, which is a significant increase from less than 50% in 2023.” So is that it? Will container and Kubernetes …

CONTAINER SECURITY UNBOXED

How To Protect Your Containers from pg_mem Malware with Aqua Runtime Security

Protecting against stealthy malware like pg_mem requires a layered defense. While signature-based tools can catch known threats, pg_mem is designed to blend in and bypass traditional detection. Aqua combines behavioral analysis with MITRE ATT&CK-based detection to uncover evasion techniques and suspicious activity that would otherwise go unnoticed. With flexible runtime policies, you can automatically block …

Unify to Fortify: Security for AI, Containers, and Every Cloud

Cloud adoption has transformed the enterprise IT landscape, but that transformation has not followed a clean or linear path. Instead of standardizing on a single platform, most organizations now operate across a patchwork of public clouds, private data centers, and legacy systems. Hybrid and multi cloud strategies have become the norm, not by design but …

How to Secure AI Workloads from Code to Cloud to Prompt

Aqua protects AI workloads against new and emerging attacks, such as code injection and jailbreak, with a complete lifecycle approach. It starts with the code, where Aqua embeds AI security directly into your secure coding practices. This includes SAST checks that identify insecure usage of AI/ML packages, all aligned with OWASP Top 10 for Large …

Mainframes Are the New AI Infrastructure. Protect it with Secure AI

If your AI workloads run in containers, then securing those containers is the first and most important step in protecting your AI. And as enterprises begin to deploy containerized AI workloads on Red Hat OpenShift for mainframe environments, that priority becomes even more urgent.
