As with any security subject, you cannot secure what you do not understand. Visibility of the asset and knowledge of the threat are first steps.

What are CSPM and SSPM?

These topics address securing Cloud Infrastructure and securing Cloud Applications, to prevent breaches and compliance failures caused by misconfigurations.

As more of our customers are moving to the Cloud, we have selected CheckRed to help Customers ensure they have a robust and safe cloud security position. CheckRed provides visibility of misconfigurations and compliance posture across Cloud {AWS, Azure, Google and more} and SaaS {M365, Salesforce, Okta, Slack, Box and 50+ other support Apps}. It helps to proactively identify, assess, and remediate cloud security risk from a single console.

Below are the various topics associated with Cloud Security. Is it a wonder that IT staff struggle with the challenge; there is a phrase that ‘complexity is the enemy of Security”. CheckRed addresses all these topics:

  • Cloud Security Posture Management: CSPM
  • Software as a service {SaaS} Security Posture Management: SSPM
  • Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management: CIEM
  • Principle of least privilege POLP.
  • Cloud Workload Protection Platform: CWPP
  • Active Directory Posture Management: ADPM
  • Identity and Access Management: IAM
  • Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform: CNAPP
    • manage all cloud security risk, CSPM + CIEM + CWPP.

Cloud and SaaS are easy to setup and, alas, just as easy to configure insecurely. According to Gartner, “99% of vulnerabilities come from misconfigurations”. Cybercriminals are continually trying to outwit the defences; unfortunately, they just need to be successful once, whereas you need to be successful every single time.

Traditional approaches like pen testing cannot always be applied to the Cloud, and even these are only ever based on a snapshot in time. Some cloud providers have shared responsibility models that pass the responsibility for security to the Customer despite it being a managed application or a cloud infrastructure. It is not uncommon for default and base settings to be open and insecure. You are not always in control of changes made by the Service Providers; however, you will need to manage the associated risk from such changes. Cloud Security is complex and relentless, it deserves continuous visibility, hence different strategies and new tooling are required, which is why we suggest CheckRed.

Key features for CheckRed include:

  • Monitoring and analysis across both cloud Infrastructure (CSPM) & SaaS environments (SSPM) for:
    • misconfigurations,
    • vulnerabilities,
    • exploitable conditions,
    • policy adherence
  • Automated compliance checks to ensure adherence to industry standards and frameworks (over 10 out of the box including: ISO27001, NIST, CIS, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, FedRAMP, MITRE, GDPR, SOX, Cyber Essentials CE/CE+).
  • Customizable security policies to align with your specific requirements and business mandates.
  • Seamless and simple integration with your existing cloud infrastructure.
  • Visibility of excessive and unauthorised entitlements to prevent unsanctioned and overly-permissive roles and identities.

We selected CheckRed as they combine comprehensive visibility of both Cloud Application and Cloud Infrastructure security, into one cost effective solution.
