Concept¶
When you introduce RISKEN, you can visualize and manage the security status of your system.
Continuous Data Collection¶
RISKEN continuously evaluates data from the ever-changing system environment.
- RISKEN aggregates various data sources related to the system environment in one place
- It enhances the accuracy of issues from various perspectives
- For example, if there is a suspicion of information leakage incident, it is necessary to look at multiple points from the following perspectives:
- Does it contain sensitive data?
- Is it production data or otherwise?
- Were there any issues with the storage service settings?
- Was the storage location for the required keys (e.g., source code repository) secure?
Scoring¶
All risk information collected by RISKEN is assigned a score. The purpose is to help with priority decision-making.
- RISKEN sets a unified score (from 0.0 to 1.0)
- The score allows you to grasp high-risk issues and compare them with others
- It helps in setting the priority of issues
Actual priority
The priority is not necessarily according to the score set by RISKEN RISKEN also allows for score adjustments and exclusion settings for each project
Whitelisting¶
Flexible score adjustments can be made for each project.
- For example, if you can distinguish between production and non-production resources, the security level of production environments is generally designed to be higher than others
- Therefore, you can set normal score x {coefficient} for specific resources in the production environment
- This allows you to adjust the risk value higher than the normal judgment (conversely, you can lower the score by setting a value lower than 1 for {coefficient})
Utilizing Open Source and Security Services¶
RISKEN actively utilizes security-related open-source tools and security services provided by CSPs (Cloud Service Providers). This is because using open tools enables a more objective evaluation of the security of system environments. - The RISKEN team incorporates services and tools they have evaluated into their system and continuously executes them - For aspects not covered by these tools, the RISKEN team develops their own scanning tools - The collected data is converted into a generic format, and the RISKEN team scores and collects it
Centralized Management of Projects¶
RISKEN supports the security management of developers/administrators who need to oversee many systems.
- RISKEN users can freely create projects
- Users can also participate in multiple projects
- Within the scope of user permissions, you can switch between projects and manage across projects
