Factual Product Summary
Wiz Cloud from Wiz focuses on cloud security posture assessment and attack path analysis. It is cloud security technology used for assessing cloud exposure or protecting running workloads. Capabilities - Cloud security graph context: Connects the documented cloud asset and risk relationships to help interpret exposure. - Container security: Addresses security issues in container images or running containerized applications within the documented scope. - Kubernetes security: Brings Kubernetes assets or configuration into the cloud security assessment workflow. - Attack path analysis: Connects multiple exposures to help explain how an attacker could reach a valuable target. - Runtime threat detection: Uses activity from running workloads to identify or respond to active threats. - Agentless assessment: Assesses the connected cloud environment using the agentless approach described by the vendor. - Infrastructure-as-code scanning: Checks infrastructure definitions for security issues before or alongside deployment. - Vulnerability prioritization: Helps order remediation work using the risk context available in the platform. Use and operational context Wiz Cloud is relevant to cloud and security teams working across accounts and workloads when the requirement centers on assessing cloud exposure or protecting running workloads. Scope the evaluation around the functions listed above and the assets or workflows that need coverage. A useful trial should use representative business conditions so the team can assess the quality of the results and the effort needed to act on them. Deployment and evaluation Deployment: Cloud service / SaaS. Before adoption, review cloud permissions required for onboarding, the assets assessed, runtime coverage and how findings reach remediation owners. Assign an owner for administration, document required permissions and identify how the product or service will fit the existing operating process. Buyer questions - What is the main purpose?
