Cloud-native Security Operations Center
Secure your cloud workloads with cloud-native Security Operations Center.
SECURE YOUR CLOUD
Security in the cloud is a shared responsibility. Public cloud providers, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Microsoft Azure, make it clear that while they secure the infrastructure you must ensure secure configuration of the cloud platform services, operating systems, containers and applications you run. As public cloud usage is exploding while employees with cloud skills are hard to hire, many organisations are looking for security as a service solutions.
APPLICATION AND CLOUD PLATFORM SECURITY
Public cloud has reduced the time and effort it takes to create software. Therefore many organisations have chosen the cloud as the default development platform leading to a very rapid expansion of software deployments. As business moves online, malicious actors are increasingly targeting applications as the attack vector. Hyperscale cloud providers (AWS, Azure and GCP) provide extremely robust and secure datacenter and infrastructure platforms which are much more difficult to exploit than applications running there.
DevOps teams use automation to deploy to cloud. Typical hyperscale cloud provider has over 150 services that can be launched. It is inevitable some deviations from security standards and best practices occur from time to time. Therefore all organisations need a capability to quickly detect and remediate platform level issues such as accidentally internet opened S3 buckets or permissive network security groups.

It’s clear that organisations need a cloud security remediation capability. However, their legacy environment SOC is unable to meet the challenges of public cloud security. Typical SOC is focused on aggregating events from endpoints, network devices and so on from on-premise world. The toolset used to aggregate events is not cloud native or integrated with provider platform. Legacy SOCs tend to hands-on lack public cloud skills. Even worse problem is the lack of customisation in alerting design and inability to provide application security.
