Traditional anti-malware solutions cannot fully protect Kubernetes microservices because they lack visibility into container runtimes and image layers. They miss dynamically injected binaries and signature overrides that modern attackers exploit. In 2024, 63% of Kubernetes clusters allowed image layer signatures to be overridden, creating a silent vulnerability that classic antivirus
