Neocloud & Data Center Security

Built for neoclouds and on-premise environments: Lava connects to your entire stack and builds an end-to-end context graph to reduce risk and protect AI compute.

Your data center is more vulnerable than ever

  • Lack of Context

    Risk reduction and prioritization are harder in the data center, where security is fragmented across different components, and solutions.

  • AI-powered Attacks

    AI makes it easier and faster to find and exploit vulnerabilities across components and layers that were previously harder to target.

  • Shared Infrastructure Risks

    Data centers were never designed for multi-tenancy, turning every tenant into a potential insider threat with access to shared infrastructure.

  • AI Compute Introduces Risks

    AI infrastructure introduces entirely new components across GPUs, networking, compute, storage, and management that existing security tools were not built to understand or protect.

One platform for the entire stack

Lava connects compute, network and storage into a single security graph that provides the end-to-end context required to protect your data center.

End-to-end context across all layers

As your single source of truth for security, Lava builds a real-time inventory graph that shows attack paths across your entire infrastructure, covering every data center layer: BMC, network, GPU, fabric, storage, host, and virtualization.

Data center security posture management

Continuously detect misconfigurations, vulnerabilities and drift against hardening baselines across every component. Findings, including shared passwords and over-privileged identities, ranked by impact and severity.

Firmware integrity and attestation

Verify that firmware across GPUs, NICs, DPUs, BMCs and storage is correctly signed, unaltered and up-to-date. This covers the new AI hardware that existing security tools can’t protect.

Tenant isolation

Identify isolation gaps across compute, network and storage, allowing customers to prevent tenants from reaching another tenant’s workloads, data, or shared infrastructure. This keeps every tenant from becoming an insider threat.

Runtime detection

Detect threats across every layer of your data center by comparing live activity against its expected state. Malicious behavior and anomalies are flagged as they happen, at the speed AI-powered attacks demand.
