ARMO, the cloud security and workload protection innovator and creator of Kubescape, announced today the launch of its new ARMO Cloud Detection & Response solution, providing robust security for workloads.

This new offering addresses the residual threats that may persist during runtime, even after thorough scanning during development and deployment. The solution builds on Kubescape’s open-source threat detection capabilities by adding observed application behavior with context from Kubernetes, cloud environment, security policies, and workload characteristics. This creates a unique Application Profile DNA (APD) that serves as the baseline for detecting anomalies, malicious activities, and malware in real-time.

ARMO’s approach focuses on providing actionable results while reducing false positives, without impacting application functionality. This approach leads to more secure applications while mitigating alert fatigue for security teams.

By utilizing Kubescape, ARMO Platform boosts workload protection within Kubernetes clusters by providing runtime threat detection and response capabilities. Using an eBPF-based runtime sensor to determine expected application behavior, Kubescape establishes a baseline and will then detect and flag any deviations or suspicious behavior, leading to enhanced workload protection. This technology focuses on reducing false positives and maintaining a low resource footprint, reducing operating costs by up to 60% compared to traditional runtime agents.

“Legacy Endpoint Detection & Response solutions have struggled to keep up with the visibility and context challenges posed by modern containerized and cloud-native microservices architectures running on Kubernetes, necessitating the evolution to Cloud Detection Response,” said Ben Hirschberg, CTO and co-founder of ARMO, and core maintainer of Kubescape.

ARMO combines anomaly detection with behavioral inspection, addressing a broad spectrum of threats and malicious attacks targeting cloud workloads and Kubernetes clusters – zero days, supply chain attacks, ransomware, crypto miners, data breaches, file-based or fileless attacks, and more. The platform’s adaptive rules focus on responding to malicious incidents, minimizing alert fatigue, and ensuring quick remediation.

“Runtime security is crucial since it serves as the final layer of defense against threats,” said Shauli Rozen, CEO and co-founder of ARMO. “While mitigating security risks within the pipeline and cluster architecture is essential, runtime security is necessary to alert you to and manage threats that were not caught by  other defenses.”

Aqua Security, the pioneer in cloud native security, today revealed new research that shows how credentials, API tokens, and passkeys – collectively referred to as secrets – from organizations around the globe were exposed for years. By scanning the most popular 100 organizations on Github, which collectively includes more than 50,000 publicly accessible repositories, Aqua researchers found active secrets from open source organizations and enterprises such as Cisco and Mozilla providing access to sensitive data and software. The exposed secrets could lead to significant financial losses, reputational damage, and legal consequences.

Aqua Security’s research team, Aqua Nautilus, revealed that “phantom secrets” can persist in Git-based infrastructure used by most Source Code Management systems (SCMs), including GitHub, Gitlab, Bitbucket and others. This is due to the way in which even deleted or updated code commits are saved in those systems, such that even a one-time developer mistake can expose secrets to savvy threat actors over extended periods.

“Our findings are truly alarming, and it is crucial that everyone involved in software development grasps the seriousness of this issue,” says Yakir Kadkoda, Aqua Nautilus Lead Security Researcher. “For years, we’ve been educating developers not to hard-code secrets into their code. Now, it turns out that even doing this just once permanently exposes that secret – even when they thought it was deleted or overwritten. The impact of a sensitive data leak can lead to unauthorized access, compromised security controls and significant financial or reputational damage. This would be devastating.”

Among the exposed secrets found by scanning open Github repositories were API tokens of Cisco Meraki and the Mozilla project. The Cisco security team confirmed the findings: “We discovered privileged Meraki API tokens used by some Fortune 500 companies. These tokens could allow attackers to access network devices, Simple Network Management Protocol secrets, camera footage, and more, serving as an initial foothold for the exposed parties.”

The Mozilla project acknowledged “An API token for the Mozilla FuzzManager with read-write privileges” and that “an employee’s API token for sql.telemetry.mozilla.org was leaked”; both were assigned a “Critical” score. Not only does the FuzzManager allow access to many potential security vulnerabilities in Firefox and Tor, but the telemetry gave access to confidential information related to Mozilla products and business.

Additionally, Nautilus found an Azure service principal token belonging to a large healthcare company exposed in a Git commit. This token had high privilege and high access to obtain credentials to the internal Azure Container Registry, which could have led an attacker to perform a supply chain attack impacting the organization, and customers.

In all cases, the exposed secrets were immediately revoked.

Commit once, expose forever
While secure coding best practices already require that secrets should not be hard coded, many developers continue this practice. They rely on secrets scanning tools to ensure that such secrets are not pushed into production and often re-commit the updated code without those secrets.

Phantom secrets exist because of underlying processes within Git-based SCMs, which cause code that was overwritten or deleted in repositories to remain accessible within the underlying system. Most secrets scanners only look at repos accessible via the Git clone command, which overlooks almost 18% of secrets.

“The findings once again reinforce the best practice that secrets should never be put into code, not even for testing purposes, and security teams must be able to monitor this,” says Amir Jerbi, CTO and co-founder of Aqua Security. “The software supply chain is optimized for speed and convenience, but this cannot come at the expense of secure engineering practices.”

“IDC research underscores Aqua Nautilus’ findings, showing that organizations are overly confident in their posture related to the protection of application secrets,” says Katie Norton, Research Manager, DevSecOps & Software Supply Chain Security, IDC. “While organizations show high confidence in their ability to secure secrets, among DevSecOps tools the adoption of secrets management solutions is among the lowest.”

Available in August, Aqua customers using the Software Supply Chain Security module will be able to prevent developers from committing code with embedded secrets, and scan for phantom secrets hidden within their SCM file system.

The Phantom Secrets research details will be presented by Kadkoda today at CloudNativeSecurityCon in Seattle during his session: “Below The Radar: Identifying Hidden Threats Within The Development Ecosystem.” For a full technical explanation of how Phantom Secrets persist, and why they are often missed, read Aqua’s blog and the full research.

Orca Security, thepioneer of agentless-first cloud security, today announced new source code posture management capabilities, adding full visibility into source code management (SCM) platforms to the Orca Cloud Security Platform. With integrations for popular SCM tools GitHub and GitLab, Orca is expanding its cloud security footprint, providing end-to-end coverage from source code platforms to the cloud and defending against cloud native risks for the entire development lifecycle.

“Orca understands that cloud security does not begin and end in the cloud. We protect our customers throughout the entire cloud journey,” said Gil Geron, CEO & Co-Founder, Orca Security. “Organizations today move extremely fast during code development. While DevSecOps initiatives have helped them address code vulnerabilities, they can easily overlook the source code management platform itself, which is every bit as risky to the business. With Orca’s new source code posture management capabilities, we are once again expanding our Shift Left Security capabilities, enabling organizations to manage their security journey from code to cloud via a single platform.”

Source code management tools are popular in the development community, providing a single, simple platform to collaborate, manage, track changes and store source code. However, any repository that houses source code represents a significant risk to the business when not properly configured and secured. DevSecOps and many App Sec initiatives do not adequately address this risk as they are often solely concerned with code security and not the configurations of SCM accounts or repositories.

While GitHub, GitLab, and other SCMs do offer robust security features, 62% of organizations have severe vulnerabilities in their source code repositories, while 70% have unencrypted secrets, according to Orca’s 2024 State of the Cloud Security Report. Most security teams are unaware of these native security features and lack visibility into or control over development environments, allowing vulnerabilities and security risks to compound. This leaves organizations unable to protect the infrastructure that they depend on to ship new applications to the cloud.

With new capabilities for SCM, Orca is addressing a critical blind spot for security teams, enabling them to detect security risks and remediate misconfigurations across their GitHub and GitLab accounts and repositories. Using its patented SideScanning technology, Orca scans all GitHub and GitLab assets and identifies risk hotspots, enabling organizations to centrally manage and enhance the security of their SCM platforms without the need for additional tooling.

Key features of the new release include:

• Repository inventory: Orca’s GitHub App and GitLab App automatically discover all repositories, including new additions, and deliver a detailed repository inventory.
• Beyond code security: Orca intelligently leverages best practices from reputable third-parties (e.g. Open Source Security Foundation (OSSF), Legitify) identifying misconfigurations, security risks, and deviations from best practices within the SCM.
• Dynamic and context-aware alerts: Orca dynamically assesses risk, combatting alert fatigue by prioritizing alerts based on risk severity, exploitability, business impact, and interconnected risks that may endanger high-value assets or lead to significant security incidents.
• Extended repository insight: Orca enriches the understanding of repositories’ significance and purpose by gathering metadata from GitHub and GitLab, contextualizing all data sources to facilitate comprehensive security insights.
• Remediation and workflow integration: Orca delivers comprehensive remediation instructions for every alert, accelerating response times for both security and development teams and streamlining workflows.

Aqua Security, the pioneer in cloud native security, today announced that it has been granted a patent (12001543) for its Dynamic Threat Analysis (DTA) technology. This innovative capability assesses the risks that container images pose before they are run as containers in a live environment. With Aqua’s newly patented technology, organizations can find and stop malicious threats before deployment, preventing them from infecting running applications.

Aqua DTA operates by running container images in a secure, isolated sandbox environment combining signature-based detection with advanced behavioral analysis. This dual approach enables DTA to identify novel malware and zero-day attacks that static scanners miss. It monitors behavioral patterns and Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) such as malicious behavior and suspicious network activity to detect container escapes, malware, cryptocurrency miners, code injection backdoors, and other threats.

When an image scan is initiated from a container registry, Aqua DTA analyzes the image while running it in a sandbox and provides detailed analysis results. This process determines the potential risk level that the image presents if allowed to run in an open, networked environment. Based on the results, security and DevOps teams can make an informed decision and set up a specific assurance policy to accept or reject the image for deployment.

This capability helps prevent a wide range of attacks such as data exfiltration, the use of containers for Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, cryptomining, fileless and polymorphic malware. Aqua DTA complements “shift left” vulnerability scanning by serving as an additional preventive control in the CI/CD pipeline, effectively catching known and unknown threats early in the application lifecycle before they reach production.

“As the threat landscape rapidly evolves, staying ahead of the latest attack methods is essential. Thanks to the Aqua Nautilus Research Team, we can achieve this,” said Amir Jerbi, co-founder and CTO at Aqua Security. “Our team has detected an increase in sophisticated methods to evade existing security measures and fly under the radar, as well as a significant rise in software supply chain attacks. Given these complex and advanced threats, organizations must elevate their security practices beyond basic vulnerability scanning. Securing this patent is a major milestone for Aqua, confirming that the industry values innovative tools like DTA to tackle the challenges of a continuously expanding threat landscape.”

Aqua Security continues to lead the way in cloud native security. With this latest achievement, Aqua Security not only strengthens its portfolio but also sets a new standard for security in the cloud native space. As cyber threats become more sophisticated, Aqua’s patented DTA technology proactively stops threats before they reach deployment, preventing security breaches and minimizing the potential impact of attacks.
