Cloud & Container Security
Cloud platforms and container technologies enable flexible, scalable and highly available applications. At the same time, complex architectures, shared responsibilities and dynamic workloads create new attack surfaces. With Cloud & Container Security from OTARIS, you can protect your systems from the infrastructure to the container image and ensure that compliance requirements are reliably met.
The new challenges in cloud environments
Cloud and containers offer enormous advantages, but also bring with them new security issues. Companies face particular challenges in this regard:
Shared responsibility
Cloud providers secure the infrastructure, but the customer remains responsible for applications, data and configurations. A lack of understanding often leads to dangerous gaps.
High dynamics
Scaling services and short-lived containers are constantly changing. Risks can hardly be controlled without automated security checks.
Multi-cloud strategies
Many companies rely on multiple platforms such as AWS, Azure and GCP. Different security models increase complexity and make it difficult to maintain an overview.
Typical weak points
Our approach to cloud & container security
Cloud and container environments require security concepts that grow dynamically and are automated. We rely on proven methods and modern technologies to effectively reduce risks and secure your systems from the outset.
Securing cloud accounts
We secure identities, roles and access rights (IAM) in your cloud environments and ensure consistent policies that meet compliance requirements.
Security in CI/CD pipelines
We integrate security checks directly into your build and deployment processes - including automated scans of container images and software dependencies.
Runtime protection and monitoring
We monitor container workloads in real time, detect suspicious activity and automate responses to contain attacks immediately.
Cloud-native security tools
We use specialized tools for Kubernetes, Docker and multi-cloud environments to minimize attack surfaces and automate processes.
Compliance & Best Practices
Cloud and container security is not only a technical challenge, but also a regulatory one. Companies must prove that their environments are operated securely and that industry-specific requirements are met.
Relevant standards and best practices at a glance
NIS2
The EU directive requires clear evidence of risk management, incident response and resilience. Cloud workloads are explicitly included in this.
CRA (Cyber Resilience Act)
The CRA requires security throughout the entire life cycle of software and services. Container images and cloud components must be continuously checked and updated.
ISO 27001
The international standard defines clear requirements for information security, which must also be implemented in cloud architectures.
CIS Benchmarks
The best practices for AWS, Azure, GCP and Kubernetes offer practical guidelines to avoid misconfigurations.
Our service for IEC 62443
Many industrial companies are struggling with outdated control systems, unsecured networks and a lack of processes for OT security. At the same time, the pressure is increasing due to regulatory requirements and growing cyberattacks. IEC 62443 provides a clear framework, but implementation requires in-depth technical and organizational expertise.
We help you to integrate the standard into your organization in a practical way. From the analysis of existing systems and the introduction of the zone and conduits model to the hardening of components and the establishment of clear processes, we accompany you step by step. Our approach combines compliance with standards with pragmatic solutions that safeguard your production and strengthen your resilience in the long term.
