Container monitoring is the process of collecting, analyzing, and reporting metrics and data related to the performance and health of containerized applications and their hosting environments.

Attack surface discovery (ASD) is the continuous, automated process of identifying and mapping every asset, connection, and service an attacker could target across your entire digital footprint (cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments).

Runtime scanning answers a critical question: 'What is runtime security for containers?' It focuses on detecting live behaviors, active threats, and anomalies that only appear when containers execute under real production traffic.

Source code scanning is automated analysis of your code, dependencies, and infrastructure definitions to find security issues before you deploy. This means a tool reads your code the way a careful reviewer would, but at high speed and at scale.

CI/CD security scanning is the practice of adding automated security checks into your build and deployment pipelines. This means every meaningful code change is tested for risk before it can reach production.

External vulnerability scanning is a way to find weaknesses in your public-facing systems by testing them from outside your network. This means you see your environment the same way an attacker on the internet would see it.

This blog post will explain strategies for attack surface management (ASM) that integrate both attack surface reduction and attack vector defense into one continuous process, helping you meet the requirements of leading security frameworks like Gartner’s Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) framework.
