Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of computer technology, and in particular to a cluster detection method, device, electronic device, computer-readable storage medium, and computer program product. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of computer technology, computing clusters have emerged. Computing clusters are usually composed of multiple computing nodes, which work together to provide high-performance computing capabilities.

[0003] Generally, access and operation of computing cluster resources depend on accounts. For example, accounts in a computing cluster can be divided into user accounts representing real users, service accounts (SA) representing non-real users, and system accounts used within the cluster.

[0004] In some types of computing clusters, the permissions of accounts in the computing cluster can be managed based on the role-based access control (RBAC) mechanism. Specifically, in the RBAC mechanism, different permissions are assigned to different accounts by defining roles or cluster roles with different permissions and binding the roles or cluster roles to the accounts.

[0005] If the relevant information of a service account with higher permissions is obtained by others, they can access and operate the computing cluster resources through the service account. Since the service account has higher permissions, the above access and operation behaviors have a greater impact on the security of the computing cluster and may cause the computing cluster to be compromised. Therefore, it is particularly important to conduct comprehensive security testing from the cluster dimension. Summary of the invention

[0020] Based on the implementations provided in the above aspects, the present application can also be further combined to provide more implementations.

[0021] It can be seen from the above technical solutions that this application has the following advantages:

[0022] The present application provides a cluster detection method. The method first determines a target container group from multiple container groups of a first computing cluster, wherein the target container group is determined based on at least one of container group information and role access control information. In response to detecting at least one of the following events: a target file read event for a container in the first container group and a key event triggered by a container in the second container group, a service account associated with at least one of the first container group and the second container group is determined as a target service account, wherein the first container group and the second container group are at least one container group in the target container group. In response to detecting a cluster audit event related to the target service account, a security identification result of the cluster audit event related to the target service account is determined.

In this way, cluster-level security detection is achieved during the operation of the computing cluster. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0030] The terms "first" and "second" in the embodiments of the present application are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.

[0031] First, some technical terms and application scenarios involved in the embodiments of this application are introduced.

[0032] A computing cluster is usually composed of multiple computing nodes, which work together to provide high-performance computing capabilities. Among them, computing nodes can be physical machines or virtual machines. Usually, computing clusters are used to perform complex computing tasks that require a large amount of computing resources and storage resources, such as data analysis, machine learning, and graphics rendering.

[0033] In a computing cluster, a container group (POD) is the smallest unit that can be created and managed. In other words, a container group can be understood as the basic deployment unit in a computing cluster. A container group usually encapsulates one or more containers, and containers running in the same container group share network resources and storage resources.

[0034] With the continuous development of cloud computing technology, more and more users (such as organizations, enterprises, etc.) are adopting micro services architecture to deploy business applications. In the micro services architecture, business applications are decomposed into multiple small, independent services, each of which implements a specific business function.

[0035] Business applications with microservice architecture can be deployed in computing clusters. Specifically, each service of a business application can be packaged into different containers in the computing cluster. The containers include the dependencies and configurations required to run each service. Containerization provides isolation, ensures environmental consistency between different services, and thus improves the maintainability, scalability, and reliability of business applications.

[0036] The above process of deploying a microservice architecture business application in a computing cluster can be implemented by a container orchestration system. Among them, the container orchestration system, which can also be called a container orchestration platform or a container orchestration engine, is a software system for automatically deploying, expanding, and managing business applications in a computing cluster. For example, the container orchestration system can be a Kubernetes (K8s) system.

[0037] Generally, access and operation of computing cluster resources depend on accounts. For example, accounts in a computing cluster can be divided into user accounts representing real users, service accounts (SA) representing non-real users, and system accounts used within the cluster.

[0038] In some types of computing clusters (such as K8s clusters), the permissions of accounts in the computing cluster can be managed based on the role-based access control (RBAC) mechanism. Specifically, in the RBAC mechanism, different permissions are assigned to different accounts by defining roles or cluster roles with different permissions and binding the roles or cluster roles to accounts. For example, in the RBAC mechanism, role A is created, allowing role A to access and operate cluster resource B in the computing cluster. By binding role A to service account C, service account C can access and operate cluster resource B in the computing cluster.

[0039] If the relevant information of a service account with higher permissions is obtained by others, they can access and operate the computing cluster resources through the service account. Since the service account has higher permissions, the above access and operation behaviors have a greater impact on the security of the computing cluster and may lead to the collapse of the computing cluster. In other words, if the relevant information of a service account with higher permissions is obtained by others, it may lead to the escape and lateral penetration attacks of the cluster dimension through the service account, which has a greater impact.

[0040] Specifically, taking the container orchestration system as the K8s system as an example, when the container is started, the K8s system will mount information related to the service account, such as tokens and certificates, to the container. At the same time, the K8s system will create a service named kubernetes.default for the container, which is used for the container to communicate with the K8s system. In this way, if the relevant information of the service account is obtained by others, they can use the token and certificate related to the service account in the container to communicate with the K8s system through the kubernetes.default service, and access and operate computing cluster resources.

[0041] In related technologies, image vulnerability analysis, cluster configuration detection, and other methods are usually used to detect computing clusters. However, the above methods are usually based on static files or configurations, and can only detect computing clusters in advance, but cannot be detected during the operation of computing clusters. During the operation of computing clusters, the detection dimension is limited to independent containers and cannot be associated with the security detection of the entire computing cluster.

[0042] In view of this, the present application provides a cluster detection method, which first determines a target container group from multiple container groups of a first computing cluster, wherein the target container group is determined based on at least one of container group information and role access control information, in response to detecting at least one of the following events: a target file read event for a container in the first container group and a key event triggered by a container in the second container group, determining a service account associated with at least one of the first container group and the second container group as a target service account, wherein the first container group and the second container group are at least one container group in the target container group, in response to detecting a cluster audit event related to the target service account, determining a security identification result of the cluster audit event related to the target service account, and then generating a detection result of the first computing cluster based on the security identification result.

[0043] In this method, by identifying the target container group in the computing cluster and combining it with events related to the target container group, the target service account that needs attention is determined. By detecting cluster audit events related to the target service account, it is determined whether the target service account has unsafe access or operation behavior against the computing cluster. In this way, cluster-level security detection is achieved during the operation of the computing cluster.

[0044] To facilitate understanding of the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present application, it will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0045] See also Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the architecture of a cluster detection system is shown. The cluster detection system 10 includes an asset identifier 101 , a behavior detector 102 and a cluster detector 103 .

[0046] The asset identifier 101 is used to determine a target container group from multiple container groups deployed in the first computing cluster. Specifically, the asset identifier 101 can determine the target container group from multiple container groups deployed in the first computing cluster based on at least one of container group information and role access control information.

[0047] The behavior detector 102 is used to detect behaviors related to the target container group and determine the target service account. Specifically, the behavior detector 102 can determine the service account associated with at least one of the first container group and the second container group as the target service account in response to detecting at least one of the following events: a target file read event for a container in the first container group and a key event triggered by a container in the second container group, wherein the first container group and the second container group are at least one container group in the target container group.

[0048] The cluster detector 103 is used to generate a detection result of the computing cluster. Specifically, the cluster detector 102 can determine the security identification result of the cluster audit event related to the target service account in response to detecting the cluster audit event related to the target service account, and generate a detection result of the first computing cluster according to the security identification result.

[0049] In this way, the target container group that needs attention is identified through information related to the computing cluster assets, and the target service account that needs attention is identified by detecting behaviors related to the target container group. During the operation of the computing cluster, the real-time behavior of the computing cluster is detected from the perspective of cluster audit events, focusing on the characteristics related to the computing cluster, and combining the characteristics when the target service account is used to determine the security of the real-time behavior of the computing cluster, thereby achieving security detection for the computing cluster.

[0050] Based on the schematic diagram of the cluster detection system provided above, the present application embodiment also provides a cluster detection method. Figure 2 The flowchart of a cluster detection method provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown, and the method specifically includes:

[0051] S201: Determine a target container group from multiple container groups deployed in a first computing cluster.

[0052] Among them, the first computing cluster can be understood as a computing cluster with cluster detection requirements. For example, the first computing cluster can be a computing cluster after the business application is deployed by the container orchestration system. When the container orchestration system is a K8s system, the first computing cluster can be a K8s computing cluster.

[0053] In the first computing cluster, multiple container groups are deployed. Each container group encapsulates at least one container, and each service of the business application can run in the container of each container group.

[0054] The target container group can be understood as at least one container group that needs to be paid attention to during the cluster detection process. In an embodiment of the present application, the target container group is determined based on at least one of the container group information and the role access control information. In other words, considering that there are a large number of container groups in the first computing cluster, the container groups are identified based on the cluster asset information, and the target container groups that need to be paid attention to are identified therefrom. On the one hand, the security level of the container group is judged based on the cluster asset information, and the target container group with a lower security level is identified. On the other hand, the number of container groups that need to be paid attention to in the future is reduced, and the cluster detection efficiency is improved.

[0055] Among them, container group information can be understood as asset information related to the container group. For example, the container group information can include the container group name, the namespace of the container group, the service account associated with the container group, the running status information of the container group, the information of the containers in the container group, etc.

[0056] Role access control information can be understood as asset information related to role access control. For example, role access control information can include role information, cluster role information, role permission information, cluster role permission information, account information, association information between roles and accounts, association information between cluster roles and accounts, etc.

[0057] See also Figure 3 A flow chart of determining a target container group is shown. In a specific implementation, at least one of the following information of multiple container groups deployed by the first computing cluster can be first obtained: container group information and role access control information. Then, at least one of the following is determined as the target container group: a container group whose container group information meets a first set condition and a container group associated with a service account whose role access control information meets a second set condition.

[0058] That is, in an embodiment of the present application, by obtaining container group information and / or role access control information, based on set conditions corresponding to the container group information and / or role access control information, a target container group with a lower security level and requiring attention is determined from multiple container groups of the first computing cluster.

[0059] The embodiment of the present application supports obtaining container group information and / or role access control information of multiple container groups of the first computing cluster in different ways. Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, in response to detecting a cluster audit event of the first computing cluster, at least one of the following information is extracted from the cluster audit event of the first computing cluster: container group information and role access control information.

[0060] The cluster audit event can be understood as an event generated after accessing or operating a computing cluster resource. In other words, when accessing or operating a computing cluster resource is triggered, a cluster audit event can be detected.

[0061] In some possible implementations, cluster audit events in the first computing cluster may be detected based on an extended Berkeley packet filter technique.

[0062] The cluster audit event carries container group information and role access control information. By analyzing the cluster audit event, at least one of the container group information and the role access control information can be extracted from the cluster audit event.

[0063] Combined with the example explanation, cluster audit events can have the following format:

[0064]

[0065]

[0066] By extracting the content in user, role access control information is obtained, and by extracting the content in objectRef, container group information is obtained. In this way, by detecting cluster audit events, at least one of container group information and role access control information is passively obtained, and cluster asset information is updated in real time.

[0067] In some other embodiments, an information acquisition interface of a container orchestration system is called to acquire at least one of the following information of multiple container groups of the first computing cluster: container group information and role access control information. The container orchestration system is used to manage multiple container groups of the first computing cluster.

[0068] A container orchestration system, such as a K8s system, typically provides an application programming interface (API) for obtaining cluster asset information. By calling the information acquisition interface provided by the container orchestration system, at least one of the container group information and role access control information is actively obtained to update the cluster asset information.

[0069] After obtaining container group information and / or role access control information of multiple container groups of the first computing cluster, the container group information is judged based on the first setting condition, or the role access control information is judged based on the second setting condition, and then the target container group is determined according to the judgment result. The first setting condition may be a condition for describing the container group information of the target container group, that is, the first setting condition may describe a condition for judging a container group with a low security level, a security risk, or a container group that needs attention.

[0070] The following describes some possible first setting conditions:

[0071] 1. Host namespace: Sharing the namespace on the host is prohibited. The spec.hostNetwork field, spec.hostPID field, and spec.hostIPC field in the container group information are judged.

Determine the spec.containers[*].securityContext.procMount field, spec.initContainers[*].securityContext.procMount field, and spec.ephemeralContainers[*].securityContext.procMount field in the container group information. If the field values ​​of the above fields are not Undefined, nil, or Default, the first setting condition is met.

[0075] 5.Seccomp: Do not set the Seccomp configuration to Unconfined. Determine the spec.securityContext.seccompProfile.type field, spec.containers[*].securityContext.seccompProfile.type field, spec.initContainers[*].securityContext.seccompProfile.type field, and spec.ephemeralContainers[*].securityContext.seccompProfile.type field in the container group information. If the field values ​​of the above fields are not Undefined, nil, Runtime, Default, or Localhost, the first setting condition is met.

[0076] 6. Sysctls: Prohibit configuration except for the allowed subset. Determine the spec.securityContext.sys ctls[*].name field in the container group information. If the field value of the above field is not Undefined, nil, kernel.shm_rmid_forced, net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range, net.ipv4.ip_unprivileged_port_start, net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies, net.ipv4.ping_group_range, net.ipv4.ip_local_reserved_ports, net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_time, net.ip v4.tcp_fin_timeout, net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_intvl or net.ipv4.tcp_keepalive_probes, then the first setting condition is met.

[0077] 7. Volume type: Configurations other than permitted volume types are prohibited. Determine the spec.volumes[*] field in the container group information. If spec.volumes[*].configMap, spec.volumes[*].csi, spec.volumes[*].downwar dAPI, spec.volumes[*].emptyDir, spec.volumes[*].ephemeral, spec.volumes[*].persistentVol umeClaim, spec.volumes[*].projected, and spec.volumes[*].secret in the above fields are all empty values, the first setting condition is met.

[0078] 8. Privilege escalation: Privilege escalation is prohibited. The spec.containers[*].securityContext.allowPrivilegeEscalation field, the spec.initContainers[*].securityContext.allowPrivilegeEscalation field, and the spec.ephemeralContainers[*].securityContext.allowPrivilegeEscalation field in the container group information are judged. If the field values ​​of the above fields are not false, the first setting condition is met.

[0079] 9. Run as a non-root account: Requires the container to run as a non-root account. Determine the spec.securityContext.runAsNonRoot field, spec.containers[*].securityContext.runAsNonRoot field, spec.initContainers[*].securityContext.runAsNonRoot field, and spec.ephemeralContainers[*].securityContext.runAsNonRoot field in the container group information. If the field values ​​of the above fields are not true, Undefined, or nil, the first setting condition is met.

[0080] 10. Non-root users: Do not set the runAsUser of a container to 0. Determine the spec.securityContext.runAsUser field, spec.containers[*].securityContext.runAsUser field, spec.initCont ainers[*].securityContext.runAsUser field, and spec.ephemeralContainers[*].securityContext.runAs User field in the container group information. If the field values ​​of the above fields are not non-zero values, Undefined, or null, the first setting condition is met.

[0081] 11. Capabilities: Require the container to abandon ALL capabilities and only allow the addition of NET_BIND_SERVICE capabilities.

If the field values ​​of the above fields are not Undefined, nil, or NET_BIND_SERVICE, the first setting condition is met.

[0082] In this way, by setting a first setting condition for describing a container group with security risks (for example, a privileged container group), a target container group whose container group information meets the first setting condition and needs attention is identified from the container group information of multiple container groups of the first computing cluster.

[0083] The second setting condition may be a condition for describing a service account associated with the target container group. One container group is associated with one service account, that is, one container group has a corresponding relationship with one service account. In other words, the second setting condition may describe a condition for determining a container group associated with a service account with a low security level and a risk of privilege escalation.

[0084] Some possible second setting conditions are described below:

[0085] 1. List Secrets: Determine whether the service account is allowed to perform get, list, or watch access to Secrets. If so, the second setting condition is met.

[0086] 2. Workload creation: Determine whether the namespace is used to isolate resources required by different trust levels or different tenants. If not, the second setting condition is met.

[0087] 3. Creation of persistent volume: Determine whether the service account is allowed to create PersistentVolume. If so, the second setting condition is met.

[0088] 4. Access the proxy sub-resource of Node: Determine whether the service account that has access to the proxy sub-resource of the Node object has access to the kubelet API. If so, the second setting condition is met.

[0089] 5. Esclate action: Determine whether the service account is involved in the esclate action. If so, the second setting condition is met.

[0090] 6. Bind action: Determine whether the service account involves a bind action. If so, the second setting condition is met.

[0091] 7. Impersonate action: Determine whether the service account involves an impersonate action. If so, the second setting condition is met.

[0092] 8. CSR and certificate issuance: Determine whether the service account has access to the CSR API. If so, the second setting condition is met.

[0093] 9. Token request: Determine whether the service account has the create permission for serviceaccounts / token. If so, the second setting condition is met.

[0094] 10. Control access to Webhook: Determine whether the service account has the authority to control validatingwebhookconfigurations or mutatingwebhookconfigurations. If so, the second setting condition is met.

[0095] 11. Namespace modification: Determine whether the service account has the authority to perform patch operations on the namespace object. If so, the second setting condition is met.

[0096] In this way, by setting a second setting condition for describing service accounts with low security levels and risks of privilege escalation, service accounts whose role access control information meets the second setting condition are identified from the role access control information of multiple container groups in the first computing cluster, and then the container groups associated with the service accounts that meet the second setting condition are determined as target container groups that need attention.

[0097] S202: In response to detecting at least one of the following events: a target file read event for a container in the first container group and a key event triggered by a container in the second container group, determining a service account associated with at least one of the first container group and the second container group as a target service account.

[0098] In the embodiment of the present application, the first container group and the second container group are at least one container group in the target container group. That is, if there is a target file read event for a container in one or some container groups in the target container group in the detected cluster audit event, or there is a key event triggered by a container in one or some container groups in the target container group, the service account related to the target file read event is determined as the target service account, and the service account related to the key event is determined as the target service account.

[0099] The target service account may be understood as a service account that needs attention. In the cluster detection scenario of the embodiment of the present application, the target service account may be understood as a service account that has a risk of leakage of relevant information of the service account and whose relevant information may be obtained by others.

[0100] The target file read event can be used to open or read a file of a container in the first container group. In some possible implementations, the target file read event for a container in the first container group includes: an event in which a process other than the main process of the first computing cluster reads a file related to a service account of a container in the first container group.

[0101] That is to say, by detecting cluster audit events, file read events are filtered out from the cluster audit events, and then file read events for reading files related to the service account are filtered out from the file read events. For example, the file path of the file read event for reading files related to the service account may be / var / run / secrets / kubernetes.io / serviceaccount, and then file read events for file reading by processes other than the main process of the first computing cluster are filtered out to obtain the target file read event.

[0102] Considering that the files related to the service account (such as tokens and certificates) mounted in the container are for better use of computing cluster resources, other processes usually do not involve opening or reading files related to the service account during normal operation. Therefore, by detecting the target file read event, the unsafe file read behavior in the target container group is identified, and then the service account associated with the first container group with the unsafe file read behavior is determined as the target service account that needs attention.

[0103] A critical event can be understood as an event involving an unsafe container behavior. That is, by detecting cluster audit events, it is determined whether the cluster audit event is a critical event. If so, the service account associated with the second container group that performs the unsafe container behavior is determined as a target service account that needs attention.

[0104] The embodiments of the present application do not limit the method for determining whether a cluster audit event is a critical event. For example, cluster audit events involving critical software execution, rebound shell, memory Trojans, backdoor residency, credential theft, container escape, port scanning, remote control, data transfer, etc. can be determined as critical events.

[0105] S203: In response to detecting a cluster audit event related to the target service account, determine a security identification result of the cluster audit event related to the target service account.

[0106] After determining the target service account that needs attention, the cluster audit events related to the target service account are detected to determine whether the cluster audit events related to the target service account are safe.

[0107] In a specific implementation, in response to detecting a cluster audit event of the first computing cluster, role access control information is extracted from the cluster audit event of the first computing cluster, and in response to a service account corresponding to the role access control information being a target service account, a security identification result of the cluster audit event is determined.

[0108] That is to say, the cluster audit events of the first computing cluster are detected, and based on the role access control information carried by the cluster audit events of the first computing cluster, it is determined whether the cluster audit events are related to the target service account, and then the cluster audit events related to the target service account are screened out from a large number of cluster audit events, and targeted security identification is performed on the cluster audit events related to the target service account.

[0109] In some possible implementations, in response to detecting a cluster audit event related to a target service account, when the cluster audit event related to the target service account satisfies a third set condition, a security identification result indicating that the cluster audit event is insecure is determined.

[0110] The third setting condition can be used to describe an unsafe cluster audit event. Furthermore, in the security identification result that characterizes the unsafe cluster audit event, the unsafe level can be further divided, for example, the security identification result that characterizes the unsafe cluster audit event can be divided into different unsafe levels such as low risk and high risk.

[0111] Some possible third setting conditions are described below:

[0112] 1. Credential abuse: Determine whether there is any abuse of the ServiceAccount token using curl, abuse of the ServiceAccount token using kubectl, abuse of the ServiceAccount using penetration testing tools, or acquisition of secrets lists and secrets contents in the cluster audit events related to the target service account. If so, the third set condition is met.

[0113] 2. Anonymous access: Determine whether there is any anonymous access behavior in the cluster audit events related to the target service account. If so, the third setting condition is met.

[0114] 3. Configuration modification: Determine whether there is any behavior of modifying the DNS configuration in the cluster audit events related to the target service account. If so, the third setting condition is met.

[0115] 4. Admission Webhook creation: Determine whether there is any behavior of creating an admission controller in the cluster audit events related to the target service account. If so, the third setting condition is met.

[0116] 5. Authorization failure: Determine whether the cluster audit events related to the target service account include the following: failure to create cronjob authorization, failure to obtain configmaps authorization, failure to obtain configmaps authentication, failure to obtain replicasets authorization, failure to obtain secrets authorization, failure to obtain secrets authentication, failure to obtain pods authorization, failure to obtain pods authentication, failure to enumerate workloads authorization, multiple authorization failures when the same user name accesses different resources, and multiple authorization failures when different user names access the same resource. If so, the third set condition is met.

[0117] 6. Abnormal command execution: Determine whether the cluster audit events related to the target service account include executing attach commands on pods, executing commands in pods, executing curl commands in pods, obtaining Pods list, executing commands in containers, interacting with API Server, executing commands in pods to read SAtoken, executing wget commands in pods, executing whoami commands in pods, and executing portforward commands on pods. If so, the third set condition is met.

[0118] 7. Information collection: Determine whether there is any behavior of using penetration testing tools to obtain cluster configmaps, using penetration testing tools to obtain cluster PSP security configuration, and using penetration testing tools to obtain ETCD information in the cluster audit events related to the target service account. If so, the third setting condition is met.

[0119] 8. Permission detection: Determine whether there is any behavior of multiple permissions detection by the same identity in a short period of time in the cluster audit events related to the target service account. If so, the third setting condition is met.

[0120] 9. Key role creation: Determine whether there are any abnormal accounts creating cronjobs, creating NodePort type Services, creating ClusterRoleBindings bound to key ClusterRole, creating RoleBindings bound to Roles in the system namespace, creating RoleBindings bound to key ClusterRole, creating RoleBindings bound to key Roles, creating containers that mount host key directories, creating privileged containers, creating containers with key capabilities, and creating containers that share host networks in cluster audit events related to the target service account. If so, the third setting condition is met.

[0121] 10. Password theft: Determine whether there is any use of penetration testing tools to obtain cluster secrets, abuse of kubelet accounts to enumerate secrets in all namespaces, abuse of ServiceAccount to enumerate secrets in all namespaces, or use of BOtB tools to enumerate secrets in the default namespace in cluster audit events related to the target service account. If so, the third setting condition is met.

[0122] In this way, by comparing the cluster audit event related to the target service account with the third set condition, it is determined whether the cluster audit event related to the target service account is an unsafe cluster audit event, and a security identification result is obtained.

[0123] In some other possible implementations, in response to detecting a cluster audit event related to a target service account, and the cluster audit event related to the target service account is an event for creating or modifying a container group, operation information of containers in the created or modified container group is obtained, and a security identification result of the cluster audit event related to the target service account is determined based on the operation information of the containers in the created or modified container group.

[0124] That is, when a service account that needs attention creates or modifies a container group, others may use the service account that needs attention to perform unsafe container behaviors in the containers in the created or modified container group. Therefore, the running information of the containers in the created or modified container group is detected to determine whether the cluster audit event of the service account that needs attention creating or modifying the container group is safe.

[0125] The embodiments of the present application do not limit the method of determining the security identification result of the cluster audit event related to the target service account based on the running information of the container in the created or modified container group. For example, if the running information of the container in the created or modified container group involves key software execution, rebound shell, memory Trojan, backdoor residence, credential theft, container escape, port scanning, remote control, data transfer and other behaviors, a security identification result representing that the cluster audit event is unsafe is determined.

[0126] In this way, by detecting the cluster operation behavior of the target service account with information leakage risk, and detecting the container behavior of the container assets created by the target service account with information leakage risk, the cluster audit events related to the target service account can be securely identified.

[0127] S204: Generate a detection result of the first computing cluster according to the security identification result.

[0128] By performing security identification on cluster audit events of target service accounts with information leakage risks, the first computing cluster can be detected.

[0129] In some possible implementations, at least one security identification result within a set time period is obtained, and a detection result of the first computing cluster is generated based on at least one of the security identification results within the set time period. In other words, the security status of cluster audit events related to the target service account within the set time period is counted to comprehensively determine the detection result of the first computing cluster.

[0130] The set time period can be set based on actual business needs. For example, the set time period can be 2 hours.

[0131] In some embodiments, when the number of security identification results indicating that cluster audit events are unsafe reaches a set threshold (eg, 3) within a set time period, the detection result of the first computing cluster is determined to be unsafe, and there is a possibility that the computing cluster may be compromised.

[0132] In other embodiments, in the security identification results that characterize the insecurity of cluster audit events, the insecurity levels are further divided. At this time, when the number of different insecurity levels in the security identification results that characterize the insecurity of cluster audit events within a set time period meets the corresponding set threshold (for example, the number of insecurity levels of high risk reaches 2, and the number of insecurity levels of low risk reaches 1), the detection result of the first computing cluster is determined to be insecure, and there is a possibility of computing cluster loss.

[0133] Among them, the threshold value can be set based on actual business needs, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0134] Furthermore, when the detection result of the first computing cluster is unsafe, an alarm message may be generated to inform the user (eg, a security operator) that there is a possibility of the computing cluster being compromised, so as to facilitate rapid disposal.

[0135] In this method, by identifying the target container group in the computing cluster and combining it with events related to the target container group, the target service account that needs attention is determined. By detecting cluster audit events related to the target service account, it is determined whether the target service account has unsafe access or operation behavior against the computing cluster. In this way, cluster-level security detection is achieved during the operation of the computing cluster.
