An illustrative data platform is disclosed that may monitor a compute asset within a compute environment. This monitoring may include receiving registry data collected, by an agent deployed to the compute asset, from a registry space of the compute asset. Based on the registry data collected by the agent, the data platform may determine that a change within the registry space of the compute asset is associated with a security threat to the compute asset. Accordingly, based on the determining that the change within the registry space is associated with the security threat, the data platform may perform an action configured to facilitate remediation of the security threat. Corresponding methods, systems, and products are also disclosed.

Agent-based monitoring of a registry space of a compute asset within a compute environment

A containerized agent that is deployed to a compute node of a compute environment and that executes in both user space and kernel space of the compute node is disclosed. The containerized agent collects data associated with a first container entity that is deployed to the compute node and that executes only in the user space of the compute node such that the first container entity is isolated from other entities executing in the user space of the compute node. The containerized agent also provides the collected data associated with the first container entity to a data platform that is monitoring the cloud compute environment using the containerized agent. Corresponding methods, systems, and products are also disclosed.

Containerized agent for monitoring container activity in a compute environment

An illustrative agent deployed in a compute environment monitored by a data platform is disclosed. The agent may access kernel data generated by a kernel of an operating system used within the compute environment. Based on the kernel data, the agent may detect a launch of a new container entity of a set of container entities deployed to the compute environment and managed by a container runtime executing on the operating system. Based on the detecting of the launch of the new container entity, the agent may then provide, to the data platform, agent data that indicates the launch of the new container entity. Corresponding methods, systems, and products are also disclosed.
