NeuVector Boosts Cloud-Native Security With Data Loss Prevention

Container network security vendor NeuVector is announcing the 3.0 release of its namesake platform on March 1, providing organizations with an integrated data loss prevention (DLP) capability. With DLP, NeuVector will be able to discover personally identifiable information (PII) within cloud-native container and Kubernetes workloads, helping organizations limit the risk of data loss, as well assisting with privacy compliance requirements. Additionally, in NeuVector 3.0 the company is introducing a new multi-cluster management capability to better handle larger deployments across multicloud environments. "We found that for performance and flexibility reasons, we needed to write our own deep packet inspection engine for Layer 7 firewalling, and this DLP engine is built on top of that," NeuVector CTO Gary Duan told eWEEK. "This engine gives us the ability to support not just container DLP, but to detect custom application protocols that are specific to each customer’s application."
