Cloud Misconfiguration Monitoring
It is the ongoing monitoring and detection of misconfigurations in an organization's cloud infrastructure, applications, and services. It involves using automated tools and manual methods to continuously assess and identify potential security vulnerabilities and risks caused by misconfigurations.
Cloud misconfiguration monitoring continuously:
Scans the organization's cloud environment for misconfigurations.
Monitors cloud infrastructure, such as access controls, ports, and firewall rules, for changes that may indicate a misconfiguration.
Monitors cloud applications, such as security patches and authentication settings, for changes that may indicate a misconfiguration.
Analyzes the organization's cloud environment to identify any potential vulnerabilities and risks caused by misconfigurations.
By monitoring cloud environments continuously, organizations can detect misconfigurations in real-time and take action to fix them before attackers can exploit them.
ThreatNG Agentless Cloud Discovery and Assessment can help with cloud misconfiguration monitoring by providing external visibility into the configuration of cloud-based assets, identifying exposed open buckets, facilitating remediation, and improving security posture. It also helps organizations to comply with regulatory and security standards.
