Architecture & Enforcement

Concentric Defense-in-Depth Profiles

Zero container sprawl: Deepen security capabilities across BlackShield's 6 standard appliances and 6 scanners using workload-aware, parameter-driven profiles.

1. Perimeter & Deception

perimeter-appliance integrates edge reverse-proxy filtering, decoy honeypot ports (port 2222), and strict TLS 1.3 termination without extra infrastructure.

2. Network & Lateral Movement

network-appliance enforces L4 microsegmentation alongside L7 inspection on SMB/RPC to block lateral movement and C2 beaconing.

3. Endpoint & Host Services

endpoint-appliance pairs kernel-level process interception with vms-scanner workload profiles (auditing LDAP, Kerberos, Samba AD, and local privilege escalation).

4. Application & Omnipresent DLP

application-appliance provides OWASP CRS protection and outbound response data loss prevention (PCI card masking, PII protection) at runtime.

5. Data & SQL AST Shield

data-appliance inspects database queries using AST tokenization for tautology prevention and enforces bulk row exfiltration limits.

6. SaaS & Identity Governance

security-appliance enforces Kerberos/LDAP identity defenses and saas-scanner audits Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and GitHub postures.

Profile Activation

Pass profile flags directly to existing container workloads: --profile=identity for Active Directory checks on VMs, --enable-deception-traps=true for perimeter honeypots, and --enable-dlp=true for application data loss prevention.
