SecurityPerf - A New Open-Source Framework for Benchmarking Linux Security Solutions Performance

Explore SecurityPerf, an open-source benchmarking framework for Linux security solutions, in this 36-minute conference talk. Gain insights into different benchmarking strategies and learn how SecurityPerf evaluates the performance impact of security solutions on real-world workloads. Discover the framework's containerized benchmarks, which can run on any Linux infrastructure supporting containerization, and examine default benchmarks for Apache, MySQL, WordPress, MongoDB, and RabbitMQ services. Understand how SecurityPerf captures metrics such as mean performance and standard deviation. Analyze results generated for three Linux security tools: Apparmor, Falco, and ClamAV, and see how these results can be used to identify bottlenecks and improve performance. Learn how to contribute to the SecurityPerf project and enhance the open-source community's understanding of security solution performance.
