The rapid growth of cloud-native applications has popularized the use of cloud-native application protection platforms (CNAPPs), which seek to unify cloud security with cloud scalability demands. However, the approach to consolidation that CNAPP helps deliver is not a guarantee of successful cloud security. To be successful when selecting a CNAPP solution, it's important to consider a few essential key attributes.
Six core must-haves of CNAPPS include:
- Comprehensive Asset Visibility and Context
- Integrated Threat Detection and Response
- Compliance Management
- AI-powered, Contextual Analysis
- Shift-left Security
- Continuous, Dynamic Scanning
