Keep Your Cloud Apps and Infrastructure Secure and Compliant
F5® Distributed Cloud App Infrastructure Protection (AIP)’s, formerly known as Threat Stack, high-efficacy threat detection uses supervised learning to uncover known and unknown threats to cloud infrastructure. With 24/7/365 SOC support, we’re an extension of your security team, letting you execute better remediation.
Detect Vulnerabilities and Threats in Real Time, with Context and Workflow to Speed Remediation
Because applications and APIs are only as secure as the infrastructure they run on, Distributed Cloud AIP uses rules, supervised machine learning, managed services and more to give you the most high-efficacy alerts for vulnerabilities and threats, allowing you to remain secure and compliant.
Real-Time Risk Detection and Compliance
We provide pre-built, customizable rulesets for detecting known security and compliance risk, enabling you to accelerate compliance with all major frameworks including SOC 2, PCI, HIPAA, GDPR, ISO 27001, and SOX, along with the automated reports you need for audit purposes.
Supervised Learning Detection-In-Depth
Distributed Cloud AIP with ThreatML™ combines rich telemetry and advanced supervised machine learning models to enable security teams to quickly detect, prioritize, and respond to both known and unknown vulnerabilities and threats.
Distributed Cloud AIP Helps You
Reduce Risk
Together our industry-leading cloud security telemetry, robust rules engine, ML-based vulnerability, risk, and anomaly detection, and human expertise helps you identify patterns of risky behavior, increases your likelihood of detecting a breach, helps eliminate both false negatives and false positives (for high-efficacy alerts), and significantly reduces your time to respond.
Securely Leverage the Cloud
Build trust with your customers that their data is safe, while you build trust between teams
in your organization. When security’s goals are aligned with the rest of the organization, everyone wins.
Achieve DevSecOps Observability and Integration
Distributed Cloud AIP extends security observability across the entire software development lifecycle including both build-time and runtime environments, enabling you to seamlessly integrate Development, Security, and Operations teams.
Full Stack Security and Compliance
Flexible Consumption
Alerts and telemetry can be consumed in whatever way fits best with your security or DevOps workflow, whether that’s in our platform, a third-party tool or storage solution, or through co-managed services in our Distributed Cloud AIP Managed Security Services program.
Distributed Cloud AIP’s Managed Services
Distributed Cloud AIP Insights—Make Data-Driven Decisions with Curated Analytics and Personalized Advisory
With Distributed Cloud AIP Insights, one of our expert Security Engineers will curate data on your behalf to help you understand patterns of risky behavior from the results of your ongoing activity across the Distributed Cloud AIP. You’ll also receive support with third-party integrations and advanced rule tuning for your use of the platform.
Distributed Cloud AIP Managed Security Services—Monitor for Potential Security Incidents
With industry-leading Distributed Cloud AIP Managed Security Services, our in-house Security Engineers monitor your environment 24/7/365, alerting you to potential incidents and helping you understand what happened. Our experts leverage the automation, real-time alerting, and unparalleled investigative capabilities of the Distributed Cloud AIP, expanding the expertise, scope and resources of your DevSecOps team.
Comprehensive Cybersecurity Across Your Cloud-Native Workloads
High-efficacy threat detection for modern environments
- Telemetry Collection: We collect 60 billion events daily across your environment, including cloud management consoles, hosts, containers, Kubernetes, and applications.
- ThreatML with Supervised Learning: Labeled data from the rules classifies events and allows you to make accurate predictions on events – surfacing unknown and unpredictable threats.
Extend your security team’s efficiency and capabilities
Our in-house cloud cybersecurity experts can support your daily security operations and help monitor your cloud environment on a 24/7/365 basis. Our Security Operations Center (SOC) team can detect risks, vulnerabilities, and anomalies, as well as triage high-severity issues, investigate alerts on your behalf, and provide relevant context and remediation recommendations, providing you expert support while saving resources.
- Distributed Cloud AIP Managed Security Services: You’ll have access to a dedicated team of in-house cloud security experts with the collective knowledge of monitoring hundreds of cloud environments.
- Distributed Cloud AIP Insights: All the benefits of Distributed Cloud AIP Managed Security Services, plus custom platform analytics and ongoing coaching to help you build a cloud SecOps strategy and reduce infrastructure risk.
Secure the increasing threat surface
Running apps and APIs on cloud-native infrastructure increases the threat surface of your environment. We combine the in-line application and API security form F5 Distributed Cloud Web App and API Protection (WAAP) with Distributed Cloud AIP to give customers a comprehensive view of cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities that span both applications and APIs and the cloud-native infrastructure they run on.
- Vulnerability tracking: Vulnerabilities and misconfigurations at the infrastructure level leave apps open to internal/external attacks. Distributed Cloud AIP protects against them.
- Support remediation: Inform action from Distributed Cloud AIP to Distributed Cloud WAAP for minimal impact to running applications.
- Operational Efficiency: Simplify operations associated with providing comprehensive security coverage across the entire environment.
