Customer Problem
An enterprise needs to be sure that the environments used for production or development purposes are compliant with legal, industry-related, corporate, and customer-specific requirements, standards and best practices.
It’s also necessary to make sure that the infrastructures are cost-effective and properly optimized. Finding proper tools, performing checks in different directions, analyzing the findings and immediate reaction to them, proper remediation planning and ensuring continuous compliance can be a challenging task.
These challenges are specifically faced by:
-
Existing businesses that need inventory and assessment for their legacy infrastructure and planned updates
-
New businesses that need to make sure that their processes and infrastructure match the standards, are effective and safe
EPAM Solution
EPAM Syndicate Rule Engine is a solution that allows checking and assessing virtual infrastructures in AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes infrastructures against different types of standards, requirements and rulesets.
By default, the solution covers hundreds of security, compliance, utilization and cost effectiveness rules, which match world known standards like GDPR, PCI DSS, CIS Benchmark, and a bunch of others.
The core of the EPAM Syndicate Rule Engine is a mechanism that scans a specified account to find resources that are not compliant with the applied rule set.
There are three types of scans:
-
On demand scan – a scan initiated by an operator or a 3rd party system at the moment considered proper by them.
-
Scheduled scan – a scan that is performed according to a specific schedule.
-
Event-driven scan – a granular scan that is triggered by a specific event and is targeted at infrastructure related to this event. This allows to pro-actively detect new threats and cut the mitigation time.
The result of a scan is a list of vulnerabilities and metadata of the scan that can be used to generate 20+ analytics reports (delivered as emails) for different organization levels: Chief, Department, Project, Operational.
New rules can be added to the solution by the customer request to cover their specific requirements and expectations.
