Abstract

A security monitor monitors network communications at a loopback interface of a pod in the container system. The pod includes a service mesh proxy and an application container. The application container includes computer-readable instructions and is initiated via a container service and is isolated using operating system-level virtualization. The application container communicates with the service mesh proxy using the loopback interface. The security monitor extracts network address and port information from packet data in the network communications at the loopback interface. The security monitor determines one or more connection contexts of the network communications at the loopback interface, each connection context used to identify a network session of the application container with a remote application container.
