Abstract

A system is provided for containerization-based countermeasures to cybersecurity vulnerabilities. In particular, the system may generate one or more containers (e.g., virtual environments), where each container may be configured to execute one or more tasks. At least a portion of the containers may be decoy containers that may be executing one or more decoy tasks. The system may then use a randomized process to change which containers are decoy and/or which tasks or jobs are executed within each container. Each container may be associated with a cryptographic key such that each container may be hashed by the system and compared against a reference hash associated with the container. If the hash has changed, the system may determine that the container has been modified and subsequently implement one or more intelligent remediation processes.
