The article examines the security of microservice architectures in the context of common vulnerabilities that arise in distributed systems. The authors analyze the essence of the microservice approach, which, despite its advantages in scalability and flexibility, introduces new challenges in the field of cybersecurity. The main focus is on issues of access management, network configuration, and data protection during transmission between services, which can create additional attack vectors.

The paper considers main problems of computer network protection and proposes to use QRadar Security Intelligence Platform to monitor information security for the purpose of detecting threats to protection of computer network elements. Using QRadar by the administrators ensures the increase of computer network service effectiveness by several times. It happens due to applying functions of automatic search and analysis of threat occurence, threat prevention, and providing complete information about the nodes, process execution, and packet transfer in a network.
