This guide focuses on how to evaluate runtime security solutions for dynamic cloud environments where threats occur during execution. It outlines key risks such as ransomware, unauthorized access, misconfigurations, and supply chain attacks, and explains why real-time monitoring is critical in fast-moving systems like containers and serverless. The guide compares approaches including agent-based, agentless, eBPF, and hybrid models, highlighting trade-offs between visibility, scalability, and performance. It also covers operational factors like CI/CD integration, multi-cloud coverage, and ease of deployment. The core takeaway is that hybrid, cloud-native solutions offer the best balance for securing modern workloads at scale.
