Techniques for multi-tenant vulnerability scanning

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions for scalable vulnerability detection, the set of instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the device to:
• select a workload of a plurality of workloads deployed in a first cloud environment for inspection, wherein the workload includes a first disk;
• generate in a remote orchestration system an inspection node, the inspection node including an inspection disk, wherein the inspection node is provisioned in response to demand for an inspection node;
• generate a volume on which the inspection disk is mounted, wherein the inspection disk is generated from the first disk;
• provide access to the volume for the inspection node;
• and
• inspecting the volume for an object, the object indicating a vulnerability.

A system for scalable vulnerability detection comprising:

• a processing circuitry;
• and
• a memory, the memory containing instructions that, when executed by the processing circuitry, configure the system to:
• select a workload of a plurality of workloads deployed in a first cloud environment for inspection, wherein the workload includes a first disk;
• generate in a remote orchestration system an inspection node, the inspection node including an inspection disk, wherein the inspection node is provisioned in response to demand for an inspection node;
• generate a volume on which the inspection disk is mounted, wherein the inspection disk is generated from the first disk;
• provide access to the volume for the inspection node;
• and
• inspect the volume for an object, the object indicating a vulnerability.
