Invinsense Cloud Security

Security as a Code

Security as a Code is the best way to ensure a series of security measures to protect your assets in the cloud. There are many advantages of utilizing code for security in the cloud.

• Reduces Complexity- Utilizing code allows for consistent application of security measures across different parts of the cloud system. This consistency reduces the complexity of applying security measures through GUI.
• Reduces Human Error - As code allows automation, there are reduced chances of human error in the implementation of security protocols.
• Enhances Scalability - With code, security measures can be made scalable according to the needs of the system. The security measures can be easily adapted to the increase of data stored or users accessing the cloud as it does not need extensive manual adjustments.
• Enhances Incident and Response - It enhances incident and response by providing required insight of security incidents.

Invinsense Cloud Security provides the following under Security as a Code :

1. Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Security :

Securing Infrastructure as a Code (IaC) in the cloud is critical to maintain a secured environment for your resources and data. It is also crucial for building various best practices for your cloud environment. Under this we help you take care of the below:

• Provision of Cloud Resources - Our green team utilizes various IaC tools like Google Cloud Deployment Manager, Azure Resource Manager, Terraform, AWS CDK, AWS Cloud formation etc. to describe and deploy cloud resources facilitating automated, uniform, and consistent infrastructure and management.
• Regular scanning of infrastructure and IaC Code - Invinsense green team sets up a security scanning process that regularly scans.
  ‍
  ⁃ Infrastructure utilizing infrastructure security scanners like AWS Config Rules, Azure Policy, Terraform Sentinel etc. to check for security compliance.
  ‍
  ⁃ IaC Code for security vulnerabilities and coding errors using tools like Terrascan, Checkov, etc.
• Enhances Incident and Response - It enhances incident and response by providing required insight of security incidents.

2. Invinsense DevSecOps :

Cloud-native application development stands at the forefront of digital transformation's agility. While it accelerates development, it introduces complexities that challenge security teams. Invinsense DevSecOps harnesses a blend of culture, tools, and best practices to fortify applications and infrastructure, securing them from code to cloud.

Invinsense DevSecOps: Cultivating Culture and Best Practices:

Today, implementing DevSecOps isn't tough, but instilling it with optimal practices and embedding it within organizational culture remains a challenge. For instance, DevSecOps aids in identifying vulnerabilities during Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST), Static Application Security Testing (SAST), and Interactive Application Security Testing (IAST). However, without a culture aligned with DevSecOps, reported vulnerabilities from DAST might go unaddressed due to business priorities overshadowing security concerns. Similarly, vulnerabilities identified through SAST and IAST may linger unpatched, accumulating in the queue of vulnerabilities.

Invinsense DevSecOps empowers the development of a culture that encompasses developers and processes, prioritizing the patching of application and infrastructure vulnerabilities. This approachseamlessly integrates with the development of business logic, ensuring timely vulnerability patches and averting potential delays.

Invinsense DevSecOps: An Ecosystem of Tools Ensuring Security for Cloud-Native Infrastructure and Applications

• Invinsense Offensive Extended Detection and Response (OXDR): This platform offers a comprehensive suite of offensive security tools integrated into a single platform. It combines RedOps, Continuous and Automated Red Teaming (CART), Vulnerability Management, and Breach and Attack Simulations (BAS). RedOps, CART, and BAS collectively identify vulnerabilities across various phases, while Vulnerability Management (VM) consolidates and centralizes all reported vulnerabilities.
• Invinsense Vulnerability Management: At the core of Invinsense DevSecOps, this aspect centralizes reported vulnerabilities from static and dynamic code analysis, software composition analysis, CIS review, manual application vulnerability testing, and image inspection. Invinsense VM collates these vulnerabilities, offering a centralized view. This consolidation helps in eliminating duplicates, establishing workflows, and tracking tasks.
• Image Inspection: Invinsense VM leverages NeuVector's Image Inspection to identify and report vulnerabilities within images.
