Gartner’s 2020 ”Market Guide for Cloud Workload Protection Platforms” calls exploit prevention and memory protection core gap-fillers for foundational CWPP offerings like Atomicorp’s. Exploits take advantage of weaknesses in legitimate software, are easy for hackers to obtain on the black market, and are used in up to 90% of breaches.

Alkemist’s patented cyberhardening protects cloud workloads against memory corruption errors and buffer overflow exploits — the techniques attackers typically use to gain control of vulnerable code, systems, and devices. Alkemist transforms binaries using Runtime Application Self-Protection (RASP) and Moving Target Defense (MTD) techniques, making them impervious to memory attacks and avoiding the need for emergency patching.

RunSafe Security and Atomicorp partnered to offer RunSafe’s Alkemist:Repo solution to Atomicorp’s customers. Alkemist:Repo delivers pre-hardened versions of the most common open source software packages enterprises use.

Our partnership with RunSafe Security is another step in the right direction to fight against the growing list of open source and cloud workload vulnerabilities.
