Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM)

Easily Answer Questions About Your Cloud Infrastructure

The Shared Responsibility Model means your cloud service provider is responsible for infrastructure security — and you’re expected to secure applications and data. Gartner predicts that through 2025, 99% of cloud security failures will be the fault of the customer, largely due to misconfigurations. Uptycs’ cloud security posture management (CSPM) solution simplifies hardening your cloud attack surface and enforcing best practices, like those defined by the CIS Benchmarks.

Simplify Cloud Asset and Resource Inventory

You can’t secure what you can’t see. Uptycs’ CSPM offering gives you connected insights across all of your cloud accounts. Users can group and tag their cloud-based assets and resources across accounts, and run queries and reports. You can answer questions such as “What cloud-based assets do I have running and where?” and “What are my cloud service configurations?” — in one place across your cloud environment.

Adhere to Best Practices and Avoid Data Leaks

Cloud Security Posture Management makes it easy for security teams to ensure all cloud resources adhere to best practices. We help you hold up your part of the shared responsibility model, avoid misconfigurations, and proactively identify and remediate risk. Uptycs ingests and analyzes telemetry from cloud resources to:

Alert teams to insecure configurations
Track configuration history
Provide engineers with details for quick remediation

Ensure Compliance in the Cloud

Uptycs makes it much faster to demonstrate compliance with detailed evidence. With CSPM:

Security and compliance teams can easily target their remediation efforts
Users can view summary visualizations of compliance posture
Teams can exampine non-compliant resources, associated evidence, and remediation guidance
Teams can view the latest failed configuration checks, most non-compliant resources, time to resolve non-compliance, and more
Uptycs currently supports CIS Benchmarks for AWS and Kubnernetes, and SOC 2 out of the box and can add support for other standards

Solution - CSPM - Section 4 - IAM policy

Monitor Least-Privilege Policies in the Cloud

IAM is a firewall for the cloud — if IAM configurations are insecure, other preventative protections become less relevant. CSPM ingests IAM policy rules to:

Perform security assessments
Enable users to see which permissions are being used by which entity (user and role) and when they were last used
Alert on policies with excessive permissions and perform security assessments

Detect and Investigate Attacks Against Cloud Resources

It’s wise to prepare for the worst. To minimize damage, security teams need to be aware of attacks on cloud resources and rapidly investigate possible incidents. Uptycs:

Ingests AWS CloudTrail and VPC Flow Logs, and other relevant data
Matches this information against its curated threat intelligence database to detect threats in the cloud
Correlates activity with AWS CloudTrail logs and VPC Flow Logs to speed up investigations and trace user activity

Case Study

“ As a cloud-based company running on AWS, finding a platform to solve all of our security needs across all of our accounts and services was a top priority. Finding a single solution that could solve for audit and inventory of our cloud assets, as well as endpoint detection and response, was a challenge — until we found Uptycs. Now we're able to do more with less, and save time, while maintaining a strong cloud security posture. ”
