Runtime non-intrusive container security introspection and remediation
Runtime non-intrusive container security introspection and remediation is disclosed. For example, a persistent storage associated with a container has a write protected lower system layer and an upper system layer, and a first snapshot of the upper system layer is created. A first request to modify data in the persistent storage is detected. A first requested modification is forwarded to a security inspection service. A threat state of the container based is determined on the first requested modification, where the threat state is one of a threatening state and a non-threatening state. In response to determining that the container is in the non-threatening state, the container is notified that the first requested modification is non-threatening and a second snapshot of the upper system layer is created. In response to determining that the container is in the threatening state, a container engine is instructed to respond to the threatening state.
