StackRox Teams with Stratus Medicine for Kubernetes Security and Compliance on Google Cloud Platform

April 2019 by Emmanuelle Lamandé

StackRox and Kubernetes security announced that Stratus Medicine has deployed the StackRox Kubernetes Security Platform to secure healthcare data and achieve
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) compliance.

Stratus
Medicine provides a platform-as-a-service for healthcare providers and technology
suppliers to collaborate on innovative applications. Using the Stratus Platform
running in Google Cloud Platform, these healthcare entities can test and validate
new technologies while keeping patient and other sensitive data protected by
Stratus. Stratus Medicine relies on StackRox to secure and protect critical customer
and healthcare data running in its multi-tenant platform.

"Containers and Kubernetes enable us to deploy new applications rapidly while
maintaining isolation, decreasing the risk of data breach," said Chris Mutzel,
principal architect for Stratus Medicine. "StackRox enables us to protect patient
data, ensure HIPAA compliance, and protect our systems from vulnerabilities in the
applications that our customers upload. The StackRox platform continuously hardens
our container and Kubernetes environments, and it automatically detects and prevents
threats. As we evaluated vendors, we found that StackRox was the only solution that
was both container-centric and Kubernetes-centric, which provides both deeper
context for risk prioritization and Kubernetes-native policy enforcement."

Stratus Medicine is using the StackRox Kubernetes Security Platform across several
use cases:
 Visibility: StackRox finds and secures all deployments and pods across namespaces and clusters, allowing Stratus to run at the speed and scale of DevOps while protecting applications and development infrastructure.
 Vulnerability Management: StackRox streamlines vulnerability management for Stratus’ Kubernetes environments by integrating with the CI/CD pipeline to prevent known vulnerabilities from ever getting deployed.
 HIPAA Compliance: StackRox automates checks for HIPAA compliance, identifies gaps or non-compliance with controls, provides clear and detailed remediation information, and exports evidence of compliance ahead of audits.
 Risk-based Prioritization: StackRox provides a dynamic,
multi-factor risk assessment that enables Stratus to immediately prioritize and
triage the highest-risk deployments in the environment at all times.
 Threat Detection: StackRox leverages a combination of rules,
whitelists, and behavioral modeling to automatically detect threats and leverage
built-in controls in Kubernetes for response.

The StackRox Kubernetes Security Platform supports all Kubernetes deployments,
including self-managed clusters; managed services such as Amazon EKS, Azure AKS, and
Google GKE; and Kubernetes distributions such as Red Hat OpenShift and Docker
Enterprise Edition. The latest StackRox update includes capabilities to enable
organizations to verify and provide evidence for
compliance with NIST SP 800-190, PCI DSS 3.2, and HIPAA standards.
