Abstract
A method for scalable vulnerability detection is provided. The method includes selecting at least a workload of a plurality of workloads deployed in a first cloud environment for inspection, wherein the workload includes a first volume; generating in a remote cluster an inspection node, the inspection node including at least a first disk, wherein the remote cluster provisions inspection nodes in response to demand for inspection nodes; generating a persistent volume (PV) on which the at least a first disk is mounted, wherein the at least a first disk is generated from a snapshot of the first volume; and generating a persistent volume claim (PVC) of the PV for an inspector workload, wherein the inspector workload is configured to inspect the PV for an object, and wherein inspector workloads are provisioned in response to demand for inspector workloads.
