  • Tible Partners with AccuKnox to Deploy Zero Trust CNAPP and Scalable SIEM Platform

    AccuKnox

    Bengaluru: In a strategic move to fortify its cloud-native and hybrid infrastructure, Tible has partnered with cybersecurity innovator AccuKnox to deploy a Zero Trust Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) integrated with SIEM (Security Incident and Event Management).

    The deployment represents a milestone in modern enterprise security, delivering robust real-time visibility and threat detection across workloads running on Kubernetes, virtual machines, and cloud-native environments.

    AccuKnox’s modular Zero Trust CNAPP platform includes:

    • CSPM (Cloud Security Posture Management)
    • ASPM (Application Security Posture Management)
    • KSPM & KIEM (Kubernetes Security & Identity Entitlement Management)
    • CWPP (Cloud Workload Protection Platform)
    • GRC, AI/LLM Security, and integrated SIEM

    These components work in synergy to secure modern and traditional workloads while enabling organizations to adopt a “secure by design” posture.

    A Scalable Platform for High-Volume Security Events

    Tible is among the first AccuKnox clients to implement the SIEM module at scale, managing telemetry from hundreds of virtual machines and processing over 10 million events per hour.

    The SIEM solution, deployed on-premise, provides real-time threat intelligence, supports automated incident response, and integrates tightly into Tible’s existing DevSecOps workflows.

    Rahul Jadhav, Co-founder and CTO of AccuKnox, said: “Tible’s adoption of our CNAPP + SIEM stack marks a major milestone in zero-trust threat detection at scale. We’re proud to support their Kubernetes migration journey with precision runtime security and policy automation.”

    Merijn Boom, Managing Director, Tible, added: “Our partnership with AccuKnox has enabled us to integrate zero trust principles deeply into our infrastructure. Their rule-based automation and SIEM functionality have significantly reduced our response time, allowing critical issues to be handled automatically. We’re collaborating closely to make security an intrinsic part of our Kubernetes environment.”

    Gartner Endorsement of CNAPP Approach

    Citing Gartner’s recent analysis, enterprises lacking a unified CNAPP are at risk of limited visibility and insufficient zero-trust implementation. The firm urges adoption of CNAPPs to mitigate vulnerabilities across APIs, storage, compute, and identities – advice that aligns with AccuKnox’s approach.

    The solution also supports Risk-Based Vulnerability Management (RBVM) and Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) for proactive risk mitigation.

    AccuKnox Integrated Platform is designed to:
    • Reduce alert fatigue
    • Enable runtime and inline protection
    • Provide end-to-end compliance across multi-cloud and edge environments

    As enterprises prioritize zero-trust security frameworks, the Tible – AccuKnox partnership exemplifies the future of automated, scalable, and resilient cloud-native security infrastructure.
