Detect Exploitable Risk and Active Attacks

Identify exploitable risk before deployment and active threats once workloads are running. Aqua combines application context, runtime behavior and threat intelligence to reveal what is truly exploitable, suspicious or malicious.

More Findings Don’t Mean Better Detection

Security teams have no shortage of findings and alerts. The challenge is determining which vulnerabilities create real exposure, which behaviors indicate an active attack and where unapproved AI use introduces new risk.

Vulnerability Noise Hides Real Risk

Severity scores show what could be dangerous, but not whether vulnerable code is reachable, executing or likely to be exploited.

Unknown Attacks Evade Known Patterns

Scans and signatures can identify known risk, but sophisticated attacks and zero days require behavioral context from the running workload.

AI Use Expands Without Governance

Models, platforms and AI services can be introduced across applications faster than security teams can identify and assess them.

Connect Exploitable Risk With Active Threats

Correlate application context from code and images with live workload behavior and threat intelligence, helping teams focus on real exposure and detect attacks as they unfold.

Connect Exploitable Risk With Active Threats

Prioritize the Vulnerabilities That Matter

Focus remediation on vulnerabilities with real exposure by combining reachability, EPSS scores and evidence of active exploitation.

FAQ
What is runtime threat detection?

Runtime threat detection means identifying malicious or anomalous activity inside a workload while it is running, rather than only scanning it before deployment. Aqua compares live process, file, network and memory behavior against an established baseline for that workload.

How is vulnerability prioritization different from a CVE severity score?

A severity score rates a vulnerability in isolation. Prioritization by reachability and EPSS also considers whether the vulnerable code path is reachable in a running workload and whether it is being actively exploited, so teams fix what matters first.

Can Aqua detect zero day attacks?

Yes. Aqua uses behavioral indicators and live threat intelligence to surface attacks that don’t match a known signature, including zero days and novel techniques that signature based tools miss entirely.

How does Aqua detect risky AI usage in production?

Aqua identifies which AI models, platforms and versions are running across environments, then flags usage that falls outside approved policy, including AI adopted inside applications without security team visibility.

How does Aqua connect code risk with runtime activity?

Aqua connects findings from code and images with evidence from running workloads. This helps teams understand whether vulnerable components are reachable or executing and whether runtime behavior indicates that risk is becoming active.
