Isovalent, Creators of eBPF and Cilium, Launch Tetragon: High-Performance Kernel-based Kubernetes Security

Mittwoch, November 1, 2023

CUPERTINO, Calif., Nov. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The creators of the rapidly growing open source technologies Cilium and eBPF, today announce the general availability of Isovalent Enterprise for Tetragon, extending the existing open source Cilium Tetragon project that provides kernel-level programmability for runtime Kubernetes security use cases. Cilium Tetragon, the open source project within the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) and sub-project of Cilium, has reached a significant milestone with the OSS 1.0 release. Just like Cilium gave platform teams a standard interface and greatly evolved performance in Kubernetes networking, Tetragon harnesses the power of eBPF to define how security and operations teams instrument Kubernetes runtime security--with lower overhead, higher performance, and a richer stream of data closer to the kernel and beyond the limited telemetry purview of security scanners.

Key Points: 
  • Kubernetes provides limited default security and observability controls, and ships without a dedicated runtime security model.
  • Tetragon is an eBPF-based security observability and runtime enforcement platform designed to give security and operations teams richer telemetry data for runtime security, while eliminating the performance overhead of proprietary security vendors' agents.
  • Tetragon is built around eBPF and in-kernel filtering and aggregation logic, providing deep visibility without traditional agents or application changes.
  • Security policies can be injected via Kubernetes (CRDs), a JSON API, or systems such as Open Policy Agent (OPA).
