Abstract
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for securing a computer workload. The method may comprise: receiving a workload; embedding a secure agent into the workload, wherein the secure agent comprises (i) a shim layer located between an application libraries layer of the workload and an operating system service layer and (ii) a security policy repository; and implementing security policies based at least in part on application programming interface (API) calls intercepted by the shim layer.
Claims22
A system for securing a computer workload within a network comprising:
- (a) a secure agent, wherein the secure agent comprises an interfacing layer embedded into the computer workload for intercepting application programming interface (API) calls and wherein the secure agent is configured to apply a security policy based at least in part on the API calls intercepted by the interfacing layer;
- and
- (b) a server in communication with the secure agent, wherein the server is configured to analyze telemetry data captured by the secure agent to secure the computer workload.
A method for securing a computer workload within a network comprising:
- (a) receiving the computer workload in the network;
- (b) embedding a secure agent into the computer workload, wherein the secure agent comprises an interfacing layer for intercepting application programming interface (API) calls;
- and
- (c) applying, based at least in part on the API calls intercepted by the interfacing layer, a security policy to secure the computer workload.
