Identify Security Risks in AWS CloudFormation Templates with Trivy

Aqua Security’s open source project Trivy now includes scanning of AWS CloudFormation templates to help developers better identify and remediate security issues within infrastructure as code (IaC) templates. Building on the technology and rule sets behind our popular open source project tfsec, Trivy now allows developers to evaluate AWS CloudFormation code, either locally or within …

Welcome to Aqua’s Open Source Developer Slack Community!

We’re lucky to have an outstanding open source community with contributors who help us build leading open source cloud native security tools. Over the years, the community has in many ways shaped the direction of what we do. To drive this engagement further, we’re excited to launch our Slack workspace to make it easier for everyone …

Golang Scanning with Trivy: Detect Vulnerabilities Accurately

A standard piece of security advice is to reduce the size of your container images, usually by using statically compiled binaries in a scratch or distroless container. However, that complicates container vulnerability scanning, because it becomes impossible to determine the versions of software installed in a container image. Fortunately, if you’re using Trivy, a popular …

Tracee Runtime Security Series: Centralizing Alerts with Aqua Postee

A great way to get started with runtime security in your Kubernetes environments is using Tracee, an open source runtime security and forensics tool for Linux. But as with any alerting and monitoring service, it’s necessary to send alerts to a central point to help operations teams keep track of what’s happening across their environments. …

Tracee Runtime Security Series: Easy Installation on Kubernetes

Despite best efforts to harden Kubernetes environments, prevention will never be enough and attackers are finding ways to evade shift-left and other preventative capabilities. It is critical to be able to detect and respond in real time to attacks within Kubernetes clusters. Tracee, an open source runtime security tool, is a great way to get up …

The Story of Tracee: The Path to Runtime Security Tool

eBPF technology is seeing strong growth, being widely adopted in the cloud native ecosystem for monitoring, networking, and security goals. At Aqua, along with being used in commercial products, eBPF powers our open source project Tracee to detect events in running containers.

Simplifying Our Open Source Contributor License Agreement

At Aqua, we develop leading open source security tools, which are widely adopted by the cloud native community and industry at large. To us, open sourcing our technology is more than just making its source code available, it’s about making the project widely used and encouraging people to participate. Beyond using a permissive Apache 2.0 …

Using CO:RE to Achieve Portable Tracee eBPF Code

One of the biggest challenges of eBPF development is distribution of your eBPF project. With so many different versions of the Linux kernel out in the wild, it seems like an impossible task to compile your eBPF program against all of them to ensure compatibility. However, by using CO:RE, a feature of libbpf, this gets …

Trivy’s Journey: From Personal Project to Open Source Scanner of Choice

Trivy is a comprehensive, easy-to-use open source vulnerability scanner for container images. Since its introduction two years ago, the project has gained a broad following among open source community members. I’m excited to share that it has now become the first container image vulnerability scanner to surpass 8,000 GitHub stars, making it the world’s leading …

Taking IaC Security to the Next Level: Why TFsec Joined Aqua

Coming from a software engineering background, we built tfsec to help developers like us scan their infrastructure-as-code (IaC) templates and prevent cloud misconfigurations from being deployed. Teams at the world’s leading organizations are now leveraging tfsec to “shift left” and introduce security earlier in the development cycle. When we were presented with the chance to …

Automatically Secure Your CI/CD Pipelines Using Tracee GitHub Action

In my previous post, I covered how you can secure your CI/CD pipeline with Tracee from potentially malicious code executions. We’re now releasing Tracee GitHub Action, which makes using Tracee a plug-n-play experience and doesn’t require any prior knowledge of eBPF or Docker. We’re also introducing a new capability to profile the normal behavior of …
