Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP)
CNAPP is a new approach to cloud security that integrates cloud security posture management (CSPM), cloud workload protection (CWPP), cloud infrastructure entitlement management (CIEM) and other risk protection in one solution. Find out how Tenable’s identity-first CNAPP for AWS, Azure and GCP can reduce risk and streamline cloud security operations for your organization.
Gartner, Inc, Innovation Insight for Cloud-Native Application Protection Platforms Report August 2021Organizations have manually stitched together DevSecOps with 10 or more disparate security tools — some new and some old — each with siloed responsibilities and a limited view of application risk.
Roadblocks to Protecting Your Cloud Infrastructure
Securing cloud infrastructure has myriad challenges amid high stakes:
- Single purpose and cloud provider tools, shared responsibility and organizational silos across Security, IAM and DevOps cause security gaps
- Cloud complexity, and lack of visibility and centralization, hide where risk lies
- Shortages of personnel, skills and processes prevent better control
Where to begin? Tenable’s CNAPP offers a security continuum from development to production that closes the gaps and improves security maturity through collaboration among developers, devops, security and IAM.
Tenable’s CNAPP Platform
Tenable offers a comprehensive, identity-first Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) for AWS, Azure and GCP. The agentless solution unifies and automates asset discovery, risk analysis, runtime threat detection and compliance — across cloud infrastructure, workloads, identities and data. It identifies, prioritizes and remediates security and compliance flaws with pinpoint accuracy.
The Tenable Cloud Security platform includes entitlement management, cloud security posture management, runtime cloud workload protection, infrastructure as code scanning and Kubernetes posture management. Tenable simplifies cloud security practice with a fully integrated view into what matters and automated, step-by-step remediation.
Manage Cloud Configurations with Full Visibility (CSPM)
Tenable Cloud Security provides 360-degree monitoring, detection and remediation for misconfigurations and compliance violations. It monitors the configuration data of all your cloud services, discovering and analyzing all cloud assets against industry best practices, compliance frameworks and custom policies.
Maintaining cloud security posture is incomplete without risk insight into cloud identities and permissions. Tenable unifies powerful CIEM capabilities and CSPM in a single pane, enabling your organization to simultaneously and effectively audit compliance and configurations, curb entitlements risk and deliver the least privilege that standards require.
Secure Your Cloud Identities and Entitlements (CIEM)
Tenable Cloud Security equips security teams with actionable cloud infrastructure entitlement management (CIEM) and least privilege at scale. Its identity-first approach provides full stack risk analysis across identities and entitlements, as well as resource policies, and network and cloud configurations — identifying, prioritizing, and remediating risk with high accuracy.
- Visibility into excessive permissions, toxic scenarios, network exposure and more
- Auto-generated least privilege IAM policies based on actual use
- Self-service Just in Time access portal for developers
- Detection and enriched investigation of suspicious behavior
Using Tenable secures your cloud identities, permissions and secrets, enforcing least privilege and zero trust across clouds, from immediate fixes to access governance and shift left.
Protect Your Cloud Workloads (CWP)
Tenable Cloud Security secures cloud workloads, detecting, preventing and remediating security risks in virtual machines, containers and serverless functions. The platform continuously scans the full context of workloads, revealing and prioritizing vulnerabilities, exposed secrets, sensitive data, misconfigurations, malware and other critical risks.
- Deep visibility across VMs, serverless functions, container images and Kubernetes clusters
- Vulnerabilities-permission levels correlation across OS packages, applications and libraries
Tenable cloud workload protection goes far beyond what single purpose products can provide; it equips Security and DevSecOps teams with the risk context needed to zero in efficiently on the most exposed resources.
Enable Shift-left with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Scanning
Tenable Cloud Security enables developers and DevOps teams to avoid errors, align with security policies and best practices, and harden cloud infrastructure as part of the CI/CD pipeline. The platform scans IaC for misconfigurations and risks in native development tools, including Jenkins, BitBucket, CircleCI, GitHub and GitLab.
- Identify misconfigurations and compliance violations in code
- Automatically remediate by integrating fixes in existing workflows, ticketing systems and source code repositories
Tenable offers complete shift left security, empowering developers to easily write secure code and save time by removing code flaws prior to production.
