bifrost security vs kube-hunter

Bifrost Security provides runtime security for containerised workloads, using observed behaviour to assess CVEs and generate workload-specific protections. Its agent monitors system calls, file access, signals, capabilities, and network ports at kernel level without requiring code changes. For each CVE, Bifrost reports whether it is reachable, mitigated by a security profile, or never loaded, and provides evidence for the verdict. The agent collects behavioural metadata only; Bifrost says it does not collect application data or personal information. The product can ingest CycloneDX and SPDX SBOMs and rescan them for CVEs across environments. It also creates default-deny AppArmor profiles from observed workload behaviour. Deployment is as a DaemonSet via Helm, with stated resource use below 200 MB RAM per node and below 1% performance impact. Bifrost supports Kubernetes, Docker Swarm, and Nomad workloads. A 14-day trial includes the full Pro edition and requires no credit card. Pricing is on request. The company is based in Stockholm, Sweden.
