Vertically integrated automatic threat level determination for containers and hosts in a containerization environment

A system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• memory storing an instance, the instance being in a virtualized system, the instance including computer-readable instructions, the memory further storing code instructions, the code instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
• probe for one or more threats within the instance in the virtualized system, each threat being at least one of a vulnerability and a non-conformance with a benchmark setting;
• probe for one or more threats within a host of the virtualized system;
• generate a threat level assessment score based on results from the probing of the one or more threats of the instance and the one or more threats of the host;
• generate a report for presentation in a user interface including the threat level assessment score and a list of threats discovered from the probe of the one or more threats of the instance and the host;
• and
• transmit the report to a client device of a user for presentation in the user interface, wherein the user interface is a graph view, wherein the instance is represented in the user interface by a container graphical indicator, wherein the threat level assessment score for the instance is indicated by a threat score graphical indicator adjacent to the container graphical indicator, and wherein connections between instances are indicated by arrow connection indicators.

A non-transitory computer readable medium configured to store computer code comprising instructions, the instructions that when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

• probe for one or more threats within an instance in a virtualized system, each threat being at least one of a vulnerability and a non-conformance with a benchmark setting;
• probe for one or more threats within a host of the virtualized system;
• generate a threat level assessment score based on results from the probing of the one or more threats of the instance and the one or more threats of the host;
• generate a report for presentation in a user interface including the threat level assessment score and a list of threats discovered from the probe of the one or more threats of the instance and the host;
• and
• transmit the report to a client device of a user for presentation in the user interface, wherein the user interface is a graph view, wherein the instance is represented in the user interface by a container graphical indicator, wherein the threat level assessment score for the instance is indicated by a threat score graphical indicator adjacent to the container graphical indicator, and wherein connections between instances are indicated by arrow connection indicators.
