Suse - Customer Spotlight - Swimlane Improves The Efficiency and Performance of Containerized Cloud Workloads With Suse Neuvector and Amazon Eks
CUSTOMER PROFILE
By leveraging NeuVector on Amazon EKS, Swimlane gained additional insights into the multi-
vector security for its Kubernetes landscape with a managed control plane, highly available
APIs and auto-scaling. These capabilities contributed to a more secure and resilient cloud
ecosystem.
Swimlane implemented a layer 7 container firewall for cluster internal communications and
integrated it with Turbine to automate vulnerability and compliance scanning. As a result,
Swimlane streamlined the enforcement of granular admission policies and strengthened its
container security program, while gaining greater observability and control of the runtime of
its cloud native application stack. The feedback included in this spotlight was collected and
verified in a survey of SUSE's customers conducted by UserEvidence, an independent research
firm.
CHALLENGES
Swimlane's internal risk management team identified limitations in its ability to manage,
enforce and visualize the applied network policies. The company wanted to mature its Zero
Trust program, but simply relying on a traditional “perimeter-based only” approach was not
going to cut it. The company required a solution with strong feature-rich APIs that worked with
Rancher and Amazon EKS. Overall, Swimlane needed to protect its edge computing
environments and wanted a 100% open source solution.
In addition, Swimlane now has fully automated vulnerability and compliance scanning for
configuration and container images in the build phase and registries. The Swimlane SOC
team now has a solution for vulnerability management that provides container protection
against unauthorized process and file activity.
