Tags Share this article 8/5/21 Published Omer Ganot, Cloud Security Product Manager at AlgoSec, outlines six key things that businesses should be doing to ensure their security in a hybrid cloud environment Over the course of the past decade, we’ve seen cloud computing vastly transitioning from on-prem to the public cloud. Businesses know the value of the cloud all too well, and most of them are migrating their operations to the cloud as quickly as possible, particularly considering the pandemic and the push to remote working. However, there are major challenges associated with transitioning to the cloud, including the diversity and breadth of network and security controls and a dependency on legacy systems that can be difficult to shake. Public cloud allows organizations for better business continuity, easier scalability and paves the way for DevOps to provision resources and deploy projects quickly. But, what’s the security cost when looking at the full Gpicture of the entire hybrid network? Here I outline the six best practices for managing security in the hybrid cloud: 1. Use next-generation firewalls Did you know that almost half (49%) of businesses report running virtual editions of traditional firewalls in the cloud? It’s becoming increasingly clear that cloud providers’ native security controls are not enough, and that next-gen firewall solutions are needed. While a traditional stateful firewall is designed to monitor incoming and outgoing network traffic, a next-generation firewall (NGFW) includes features such as application awareness and control, integrated breach prevention and active threat intelligence. In other words, while a traditional firewall will allow for layer 1-2 protection, NGFWs allow for protection from levels 3 through 7. 2. Use dynamic objects On-premise security tends to be easier because subnets and IP addresses are typically static. In the cloud, however, workloads are dynamically provisioned and decommissioned, IP addresses change, so traditional firewalls simply cannot keep up. NGFW dynamic objects allow businesses to match a group of workloads using cloud-native categories, and then use these objects in policies to properly enforce traffic and avoid the need to frequently update the policies. 3. Gain 360-degree visibility As with any form of security, visibility is critical. Without that, even the best preventative or remedial strategies will fall flat. Security should be evaluated both in your cloud services and in the path from the internet and data center clients. Having one single view over the entire network estate is invaluable when it comes to hybrid cloud security. AlgoSec’s powerful AutoDiscovery capabilities help you understand the network flows in your organization. You can automatically connect the recognized traffic flows to the business applications that use them and seamlessly manage the network security policy across your entire hybrid estate. 4. Evaluate risk in its entirety Too many businesses are guilty of only focusing on cloud services when it comes to managing security. This leaves them inherently vulnerable on other network paths, such as the ones that run from the internet and data centers towards the services in the cloud. As well as gaining 360-degree visibility over the entire network estate, businesses also need to be sure to actively monitor those areas for risk with equal weighting in terms of priority. 5. Clean up cloud policies regularly The cloud security landscape changes at a faster rate than most businesses can realistically keep up with. For that reason, cloud security groups tend to change with the wind, constantly being adjusted to account for new applications. If a business doesn’t keep on top of its cloud policy ‘housekeeping’, they’ll soon become bloated, difficult to maintain and risky. Keep cloud security groups clean and tidy so they’re accurate, efficient and don’t expose risk. 6. Embrace DevSecOps The cloud might be perfect for DevOps in terms of easy and agile resource and security provisioning using Infrastructure-as-code tools, but the methodology is seldom used for risk analysis and remediation recommendations. Businesses that want to take control of their cloud security should pay close attention to this. Before a new risk is introduced, you should obtain an automatic what-if risk check as part of the code’s pull request, before pushing to production. From visibility and network management right through to risk evaluation and clean-up, staying secure in a hybrid cloud environment might sound like hard work, but by embracing these fundamental practices your organization can start putting together the pieces of its own security puzzle. The AlgoSec Security Management Suite (ASMS) makes it easy to support your cloud migration journey, ensuring that it does not block critical business services and meet compliance requirements.

Rony Moshkovich 2 min read Rony Moshkovich Short bio about author here Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur. Vitae donec tincidunt elementum quam laoreet duis sit enim. Duis mattis velit sit leo diam. Tags Share this article 11/24/22 Published Protecting cloud-based applications and workloads requires robust security solutions such as CSPM, CIEM and CWPP. CNAPP tries to answer all 3 but how do you know which solution is right for your specific organization? Ava Chawla, AlgoSec’s Global Head of Cloud Security unravels the differences between them and shares her expert opinion on the solution that offers the most value for organizations. What is Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM)? A CSPM tool monitors the logs and configuration files of the services you use in your cloud environment. It will scan the entire cloud environment to detect and prevent misconfiguration errors. This is important because configurations in the cloud happen quickly and just as quickly introduce new threats into the environment. For robust ongoing protection, you need to monitor the environment continuously and automatically. Here’s where CSPM comes in. The best CSPM solutions implement configuration best practices and automatically initiate corrective actions to remove risks, thus improving cloud security, ensuring adherence to compliance policies, and reducing the likelihood of breaches. Additionally, they are agentless, do not require long configuration, and don’t add to your cloud bills by utilizing additional cloud resources. What is Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM)? In cloud environments, identity goes beyond users and groups. It also plays a vital role in managing all the resources and services that need to access data. All these accesses happen very quickly and constitute a complex web of interactions. It’s crucial to know when and between whom these interactions occur to ensure that only legitimate resources can access or modify data. But as your cloud resources increase, the complexity of entitlements also grows. It’s not easy to keep track of these entitlements or to maintain the security-focused principle of least privilege (PoLP). CIEM tools are specialized identity-centric solutions to manage cloud access risk and govern entitlements in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. With CIEM, you can manage entitlements across all your cloud resources and maintain PoLP to mitigate the risk created by granting excessive permissions to cloud resources. What is a Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP)? CWPP solutions manage cloud applications and workloads. They can reach back into on- prem environments and thus effectively detect and prevent security problems like malware and vulnerabilities across the entire hybrid landscape. CWPP solutions can scale automatically and support your organization as your cloud environment grows or changes. What is a Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP)? Each of these solutions are geared towards a specific area of cloud security. CSPM prevents misconfiguration errors, CIEM platforms manage cloud access risks, and CWPP protects your assets and workloads. But what if you want a single solution that can completely manage the security of your cloud environment? Try a Cloud Native Application Protection Platform . CNAPP solutions combine security posture management, workload protection, and entitlement management into one single platform to provide comprehensive, holistic security across multi-cloud environments. Thus, you can protect your entire cloud estate with one solution instead of having to implement and manage multiple point solutions. Another advantage of a CNAPP tool is that it will enable you to “shift left”. Thus, you can not only secure applications in production environments, but also manage the runtime and DevOps aspects of security. For this reason, these platforms are aimed at both security professionals and DevOps practitioners. Conclusion and Next Steps A CNAPP solution is the most comprehensive solution. However, in today’s market there is no one tool that truly covers all the functionalities that CNAPP promises. Therefore, each organization should choose the solution that fits its immediate needs, including taking other considerations into account such as the skill level and the maturity of its cloud adoption. One important thing to remember: Regardless of the solution you choose, make sure it’s agentless. Agentless is important in today’s cloud security because agent-based solutions are hard to manage, expensive, and intrusive. If you’re looking for a modern agentless CSPM with container protection to safeguard your cloud-based application and workload data, then Prevasio might be the best option for you.

AWS Security group architecture for AWS: How to overcome security group limits Prof. Avishai Wool 2 min read Prof. Avishai Wool Short bio about author here Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur. Vitae donec tincidunt elementum quam laoreet duis sit enim. Duis mattis velit sit leo diam. Tags Share this article 8/9/23 Published As with all cloud vendors, AWS users share responsibility for securing their infrastructure against risk. Amazon provides the tools you need to filter traffic, but configuring those tools is up to you. Firewalls are one of the tools you’ll use to filter traffic and secure Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) instances. Instead of using traditional firewalls, Amazon provides users with AWS security groups, which are flexible, stateful firewalls capable of filtering inbound and outbound traffic. However, there are limits to what you can do with AWS security groups. First, they only allow traffic – you can’t configure them to deny traffic. Second, the maximum number of rules you can set for a single group is 60. This isn’t a big issue for an Amazon EC2 instance designed to address inbound traffic. You’ll either want your AWS EC2 to accept ingress from the entire internet or you’ll want to configure access for a few internal IP addresses. But for outbound traffic, 60 rules simply isn’t enough. You’ll use a dozen of them just allowing access to GitHub’s API . Add in a few third-party partners and you’re already well past the limit. Amazon VPC resource limits explained Amazon sets clear limits on the AWS services and resources it makes available to users. In some cases, you can increase these limits by contacting AWS support. These limits are generally assessed on a per-Region basis. Here are some of the limits Amazon places on AWS users: Security group limits 2500 VPC security groups per Region 60 IPv4 rules per security group 60 IPv6 rules per security group 5 security groups per network interface VPC and subnet limits 5 VPCs per Region 200 Subnets per VPC 5 IPv4 CIDR blocks per VPC 5 IPv6 CIDR blocks per VPC Limits to elastic IP addresses and gateways 5 Elastic IP addresses per Region 2 Elastic IP Addresses per public NAT gateway 5 Egress-only internet gateways per Region 5 NAT gateways per Availability Zone One carrier gateway per VPC Prefix list limits 100 prefix lists per Region 1000 versions per prefix list 5000 prefix list references per resource type Network ACL limits 200 Network ACLs per VPC 20 Rules per Network ACL How to manage AWS cloud security group limits effectively Traditional firewalls may have thousands of security rules, including a complex combination of inbound rules and egress filters. Crucially, they can also enforce outbound rules that include denying traffic – something Amazon does not allow regular security groups to do. While AWS offers powerful tools for securing cloud workflows, Amazon VPC users must find ways to overcome these limitations. Fortunately, there are a few things you can do to achieve exactly that. Optimize your VPC security groups. Use Network Access Control Lists to secure assets at the subnet level. Use a domain name filtering system that reduces the number of IP addresses security group rules need to resolve. Optimize your Amazon virtual private cloud configuration Amazon VPC is a virtual network that contains many of the elements you’d expect from a traditional network. It has IP addresses, route tables, subnets, and internet gateways. Unlike a traditional network, you can easily configure many of your VPC environment through a command line interface (CLI). You can establish VPC peering connections, implement identity and access management (IAM) protocols, and configure elastic network interfaces without manually handling any hardware. But first, you need to set up and protect your VPC by setting up and configuring security groups. If you don’t specify a particular group, Amazon EC2 will use the default security group. If you haven’t added new security groups since creating your AWS account, you may only have that one default security group. The first step to optimizing security is expanding the number of security groups you have available. Here’s an example of the code you can use to create a new security group in the AWS console:aws ec2 create-security-group –group-name web-pci-sg –description “allow SSL traffic” –vpc-id vpc-555666777 This creates a new group named web-pci-sg and describes it as a group designed to allow SSL traffic on the network. Remember that security groups don’t support deny rules. Here is the code you would use to add a rule to that group: aws ec2 authorize-security-group-ingress \ –group-name web-pci-sg \ –protocol https \–port 443 \ –cidr This rule specifically allows SSL traffic using the HTTPS protocol to use port 443, which is the standard port for HTTPS traffic. You can use the last argument to specify the cidr block the rule will direct traffic through. This gives you the ability to manage traffic through specific subnets, which is important for the next step. This example focuses on just one type of rule in one context. To take full advantage of the security tools AWS makes available, you’ll want to create custom rules for endpoints, load balancers, nat gateways, and more. Although you’re limited to 60 rules per security group, creating many groups lets you assign hundreds of rules to any particular instance. Security architecture and network ACLs Network Access Control Lists provide AWS users with additional filtering capabilities. Network ACLs are similar to security groups in many ways, but come with a few key differences: Network ACLs can contain deny rules. You can write Network ACL rules to include explicit actions, like blocking particular IP addresses or routing VPN users in a specific way. Network ACLs are enforced at the subnet level. This means they apply to every instance in the subnet, in addition to whatever rules exist at the security group level. As mentioned above, each Network ACL can contain up to 20 rules. However, you can have up to 200 Network ACLs per VPC, which gives you a total of 4000 potential rules. Along with instance-specific security group rules, this offers much more flexibility for setting up robust AWS security architecture. Since Network ACLs can deny traffic, they are a useful tool for managing access to databases and other sensitive assets. For example, you may wish to exclude users who don’t have the appropriate permissions from your Amazon RDS instance. You may also want to filter SSH (Secure Shell) connections coming from unknown sources, or limit connections between different internal instance types. To do this effectively, you need to group these assets under the same subnet and make sure that the appropriate rules are enabled for all of them. You can also write asset-specific rules at the security group level, ensuring every asset has its own optimal configuration. The larger your AWS environment is, the more complex this process may become. Take care to avoid misconfigurations – it’s very easy to accidentally write security group rules and Network ACL rules that aren’t compatible, or that cause problems when you access the instance. To avoid this, try to condense your rules as much as possible. Avoid limits by filtering domain names directly Although you can create a large number of rules by creating additional security groups, you still may want to add more than 60 rules in a single group. There are many scenarios where this makes more sense than arbitrarily adding (and managing) new groups. For example, you might have a production instance that needs updates from several third-party partners. You also need to periodically change and update the technologies this instance relies on, so you’d like to keep its rules in a single security group. This reduces misconfiguration risk by keeping all the relevant rules in one place – not spread out across multiple groups. To overcome this limit, you need to reduce the number of IP addresses that the security group filters. You can do this by deploying a third-party solution that allows security rules to perform DNS resolution. This eliminates the need for AWS to resolve the domain name. Since AWS security groups can’t compute domain names on their own, you’ll need to deploy a third-party NAT gateway on your public VPC to filter outbound traffic in this way. Once you do this, you can write rules that filter outgoing connections based on their domain name. This effectively bypasses the 60 IP limit because you are not referring to specific IP addresses. At the same time, it simplifies management and makes rules much easier to read and understand. Instead of looking up and adding all of Github’s API IP addresses, you can write rules that reference the domain “Github.com”. If Github decides to change its IP infrastructure, your security rules will automatically reference the new addresses – you won’t have to go back and update them. The earlier you address AWS security group limits, the better There is an unlimited number of ways you can arrange your security groups and Network ACLs. Even in a small environment, the prospect may seem daunting. However, the flexibility Amazon provides to its cloud users is a valuable security feature. Those who go the process enjoy clear security performance benefits. If you start to planning for the architecture of your security and filtering policies early, you’ll be better equipped to scale those policies upwards as your organization grows. This will prevent security processes from becoming a growth bottleneck and maintain a high level of efficiency even as those policies become larger and more complex.
