Debunking the Top Nine
Cloud Native Security Myths

Application development has transformed dramatically with the rise of cloud native adoption, a modern approach that prioritizes agility, scalability, and resilience.

Whether it’s leveraging containerization or DevSecOps methodologies, cloud native development empowers organizations to deliver value to their customers faster and more reliably. However, there is a critical need to address misconceptions, particularly in cloud native security. In this ebook, we debunk the top nine myths that often cloud the understanding of cloud native security.

What you will learn from this report:

  • Myth: Pre-production image scanning and agentless workload scanning are sufficient for compliance.
    Reality: While important, these methods alone cannot account for the dynamic nature of production environments. A comprehensive approach includes runtime security, automatic compliance checks, and agent-based solutions for deep visibility and control.
  • Myth: Runtime security solely involves blocking attacks and is therefore disruptive.
    Reality: Runtime security encompasses detection, monitoring, and prevention. Modern solutions use advanced analytics and behavior profiling to detect anomalies and stop attacks without disrupting legitimate activities.
  • Myth: Supply chain attacks are rare and not a significant concern.
    Reality: Supply chain attacks can have devastating impacts. Effective security involves rigorous software supply chain practices, including vulnerability scanning, image integrity checks, and runtime monitoring.
