Abstract
Aspects of the present invention provide an approach for providing network intrusion detection and prevention service (NIDPS) capabilities to a microservice in a networked computing environment. In an embodiment, a set of rules for accessing the microservice is retrieved. A NIDPS microservice is created within the environment of the microservice fabric that supports the microservice using the set of rules. The NIDPS microservice is established as a proxy communications destination for communications to the microservice such that communications that are intended for the microservice are instead rerouted to the NIDPS microservice. These communications are filtered by the NIDPS microservice according to the set of rules (e.g., to remove any communications that are determined to be threats).
