Abstract
Providing immediate access to vulnerable resources identified by a deployment monitoring tool, including: identifying, in a deployment monitored by a security framework, a security issue associated with one or more resources in the deployment; identifying, based on ancestry information associated with the one or more resources, a portion of code that enables the security issue; and generating an alert indicating the portion of code that enabled the security issue.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- monitoring execution of one or more resources in a cloud computing deployment;
- detecting a security issue associated with the one or more resources;
- identifying a portion of code that enables the security issue based on ancestry information associated with the one or more resources indicating a change history of the portion of the code after which the security issue was detected;
- and
- generating an alert indicating the portion of code that enabled the security issue.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing instructions which, when executed, cause a processing device to:
- monitor execution of one or more resources in a cloud computing deployment;
- detect a security issue associated with one or more resources in the deployment;
- identify a portion of code that enables the security issue based on ancestry information associated with the one or more resources indicating a change history of the portion of the code after which the security issue was detected;
- and
- generate an alert indicating the portion of code that enabled the security issue.
