The study integrates microservice protection models, access control mechanisms, methods for identifying architectural vulnerabilities, and configuration-analysis approaches into a unified framework for designing secure cloud-native systems. It is shown that the structure of modern applications is defined by dynamic component orchestration, distributed trust boundaries, and a highly variable environment, which together form a specific set of threats and constraints. The paper proposes a conceptual model of multilayer protection that includes network segmentation, privilege separation, configuration-integrity control, cryptographically reinforced trust mechanisms, and automated anomaly detection. This model is considered as a foundation for aligning the behavior of services, the container runtime, and security policies. The study establishes that insufficient formalization of architectural decisions leads to risk-assessment bias and reduced system predictability. Promising directions for advancing architectural security are substantiated, including the integration of telemetry-driven analysis, adaptive recovery mechanisms, enhanced privilege-management models, and formalized maturity metrics. The article may be useful for architects, engineers, and researchers involved in designing secure distributed applications under conditions of high automation and regulatory pressure.}, number={2}, journal={International Journal of Advanced Engineering, Management and Science}, publisher={AI Publications}, author={Jangid, Kautilya and Chouhan, Aditya and Loyal, Ankit and Yadav, Aman and Singh Mahala, Vikas Ranveer}, year={2026}, pages={149–155} }
