Many organizations feel confident that their cloud security situation is under control, but when pressed, they lack a centralized way to understand exactly what they have. Cloud Security Posture Management, or CSPM, provides a single pane of glass for seeing your cloud vulnerabilities and security posture in real time.

Many organizations think that they can implement their own processes and checks to protect their cloud and pipelines.
