Problem
Enterprises adopting cloud-native architectures face fragmented security tools, manual rule creation, and delayed detection of misconfigurations, credential compromise, and emerging threats, leading to increased risk of data breaches and compliance failures.
Solution
Lacework’s Cloud‑Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) consolidates security functions into a single, automated solution that links risk insights with real‑time threat data across AWS, Azure, and GCP. The platform continuously monitors workloads, identifies anomalous behavior, and surfaces early indicators of zero‑day attacks such as ransomware, cryptojacking, and credential abuse without requiring custom rule authoring. Patented machine‑learning models and deep integrations with the Fortinet Security Fabric prioritize the most critical vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and active threats, enabling rapid response and remediation. Built‑in compliance mapping automatically aligns cloud assets and configurations with standards like PCI DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2, and ISO 27001, reducing audit effort and ensuring continuous compliance.
Target Audience
Primary customers are security and DevSecOps teams in mid‑size to large enterprises that operate multi‑cloud workloads and need a consolidated solution for threat detection, risk prioritization, and compliance automation.
