Secure containers from code to runtime | Microsoft Defender
About this episode
This episode discusses securing containerized applications using Microsoft Defender for Cloud and features insights from Azure expert Matt McSpirit.
Secure containerized apps end-to-end using Microsoft Defender for Cloud. Correlate cross-cloud attacks into a single incident, catch runtime threats that image scanning misses, and block vulnerable images before they reach production. Investigate container hijacking, isolate compromised pods with Security Copilot-guided remediation, and close the loop from SOC to dev by pushing CVE fixes to GitHub and syncing resolution back to Defender. Matt McSpirit, Microsoft Azure expert, shares how to detect, investigate, and remediate container threats in one connected workflow. ► QUICK LINKS: 00:00 - Secure containers in Microsoft Defender 01:02 - Cross-cloud incident 03:07 - Runtime detection 04:10 - Investigate and build context 04:49 - Security Copilot incident report & containment 06:03 - Prevention 07:34 - Recommendations and take action 09:04 - Wrap up ► Link References Get started at https://aka.ms/DefenderCloudSecurity ► Unfamiliar with Microsoft Mechanics?
