I had covered Ostinato in our earlier blog, before it got blown away and was reminded of it when I was working on the Apache Struts S2-046 vulnerability. I had a .pcap file which I had to replay and this is where Ostinato came into picture. A bit off track, if you want to protect yourself from S2-045 & S2-046, and your application is on Apache, simply add the following to your .htaccess file: <IfModule mod_headers.c> RequestHeader unset Content-Type RequestHeader unset Read more about Ostinato: The Network Traffic Generator and Analyzer!

Dagda: The Docker Security Suite!
The Docker security god must surely be smiling and thinking he must have done something right to have tools like Dagda that helps in performing static analysis of known vulnerabilities on Docker containers. If you did not get my "Docker security guard" analogy, I won't blame you either. Google told me that Dagda is an important god of Irish mythology. Read more about Dagda: The Docker Security Suite!
Sysdig Falco: The Open Source Behavioral Activity Monitor!
Since my last posts (Anchore & Docker Scan) were about Docker security, I thought I should continue the trend and blog about Sysdig Falco, the open source behavioral activity monitor with container support. Read more about Sysdig Falco: The Open Source Behavioral Activity Monitor!
OWASP Dependency-Check: The Vulnerable Library Detector!
At work, I wanted to check if there were any vulnerabilities in the JAVA libraries that were being used. This is when I remembered of an old project - OWASP Dependency-Check. I was pleasantly surprised to see that it was still being updated and maintained by Jeremy Long. It really did work for me and I ended up updating the few libraries that were being used in my project! Read more about OWASP Dependency-Check: The Vulnerable Library Detector!
Anchore – A Open Source Container Inspection & Analysis System!
Wow! It is raining container security suites now! What with our last post being about Dockerscan and this is about Anchore; a robust container analysis, inspection and control system. An automated tweet went out and Scott Francis alerted me about this open source analysis system. I thought of checking it out and here we are.

Dockerscan: A Docker Security Analysis Suite!
What better way to kick off the first blog post than talk about a tool which deals with Docker security. Docker is an open-source project that automates the deployment of applications inside software containers. These containers bundle up pieces of software in a complete filesystem that has everything it needs to run, so that you can package your applications into a singular unit. This is where Dockerscan comes into the picture. Read more about Dockerscan: A Docker Security Analysis Suite!
