Explore container security through system call profiling in this 53-minute conference talk from AppSecUSA 2016. Dive into the differences between containers and virtual machines, understanding the unique security challenges posed by shared OS kernels. Learn how to develop accurate system call profiles using static analysis of container images and host system knowledge. Discover techniques for runtime monitoring and protection against malicious behavior with minimal performance overhead. Follow along as the speaker demonstrates system call profiling on a sample micro-service application, showcasing its effectiveness in detecting behavioral anomalies with low false positives. Gain insights into practical considerations, challenges, and the value of this non-intrusive approach for hardening and isolating containerized applications.
