Sweet Security ships one-click virtual patching for cloud workloads
Original title: Sweet Security adds one-click protection for vulnerable cloud workloads
A catalog policy blocks exploit attempts on running nodes until engineering deploys a permanent fix.
Sweet Security announced Virtual Patching, which lets a team select a vulnerability and push a policy to every node running that workload. The sensor blocks requests that attempt to exploit it while leaving normal traffic alone, and protection follows the workload as it scales or restarts. The company’s Sweet Attack agent can suggest a policy when it finds an exploitable path. The announcement names no specific vulnerabilities or customers using the feature.
- Protection is applied to the running application and removed after a permanent fix ships.
- Sweet Attack continuously looks for exploitable paths using runtime context.
- The company says the policy deploys to every node running the selected workload.
