Cilium vs JScrambler: What are the differences?

What is Cilium? API-aware networking and security for containers. Open source software for providing and transparently securing network connectivity and loadbalancing between application workloads such as application containers or processes.

What is JScrambler? Leading client-side security solution for JavaScript protection and real-time webpage monitoring. Jscrambler enables JavaScript applications to become self-defensive and resilient to tampering and reverse-engineering, while also providing complete visibility over client-side attacks.

Cilium and JScrambler belong to "Security" category of the tech stack.

Some of the features offered by Cilium are:

• Identity Based Security - Cilium visibility and security policies are based on the container orchestrator identity (e.g., Kubernetes labels). Never again worry about network subnets or container IP addresses when writing security policies, auditing, or troubleshooting.
• Blazing Performance - BPF is the underlying Linux superpower to do the heavy lifting on the datapath by providing sandboxed programmability of the Linux kernel with incredible performance.
• API-Protocol Visibility + Security - Traditional firewalls only see and filter packets based on network headers like IP address and ports. Cilium can do this as well, but also understands and filters the individual HTTP, gRPC, and Kafka requests that stitch microservices together.

On the other hand, JScrambler provides the following key features:

• Polymorphic JavaScript Obfuscation (transform your app into a form that is protected against reverse-engineering using automated static analysis attacks)
• Code Locks (restrict when, where and by whom the app can be executed)
• Self-Defending (combination of anti-tampering and anti-debugging techniques)
