Moscow Credit Bank (ICB), as part of its import substitution strategy and to enhance cybersecurity, has selected Kaspersky Container Security, a Russian solution that provides protection for container development and prevents cyber threats at all stages of the application lifecycle.

The modern financial industry requires reliable protection of container environments, especially in the context of the rapid development of digital services and the increasing number of cyberattacks. ICB conducted a comprehensive testing of several Russian solutions and settled on Kaspersky Container Security as a tool for integration into DevSecOps processes.

Kaspersky Container Security offers comprehensive protection for container environments. Its key features include:

·         Integration with image registries, CI/CD platforms, and security systems, as well as an open API.

·         Analysis of container behavior with the ability to detect and block suspicious activities.

·         Automatic inventory of resources and visualization of network interaction for assessing related risks.

·         Compliance with regulatory requirements, including vulnerability checks against the BDU LK, BDU FSTEC, and NIST databases.

These features enable the creation of a secure environment for developing, deploying, and operating container applications, minimizing risks and ensuring compliance with industry security standards.

Special attention was paid to checking images before deployment during the solution's integration, which improved development security and minimized threats at all stages of operation. Runtime protection, risk analysis, and support for integration with popular image registries (Harbor, Nexus, GitLab) were key factors in choosing this solution.

Marina Usova, Head of Corporate Sales at Kaspersky Lab:

"The popularity of containerization technologies requires specialized protection tools. Kaspersky Container Security allows companies to automate processes and focus on product development".
