    Wiz

    Wiz

    Wiz is a new approach to cloud security that finds the most critical risks and infiltration vectors with complete coverage across the full stack of multi-cloud environments. Find all lateral movement risks such as private keys used to access both development and production environments. Scan for vulnerable and unpatched operating systems, installed software, and code libraries in your workloads prioritized by risk. Get a complete and up-to-date inventory of all services and software in your cloud environments including the version and package. Identify all keys located on your workloads cross referenced with the privileges they have in your cloud environment. See which resources are publicly exposed to the internet based on a full analysis of your cloud network, even those behind multiple hops. Assess the configuration of cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, and VM operating systems against your baselines and industry best practices.

    Sysdig Secure
    Cloud, container, and Kubernetes security that closes the loop from source to run. Find and prioritize vulnerabilities; detect and respond to threats and anomalies; and manage configurations, permissions, and compliance. See all activity across clouds, containers, and hosts. Use runtime intelligence to prioritize security alerts and remove guesswork. Shorten time to resolution using guided remediation through a simple pull request at the source. See any activity within any app or service by any user across clouds, containers, and hosts. Reduce vulnerability noise by up to 95% using runtime context with Risk Spotlight. Prioritize fixes that remediate the greatest number of security violations using ToDo. Map misconfigurations and excessive permissions in production to infrastructure as code (IaC) manifest. Save time with a guided remediation workflow that opens a pull request directly at the source.
