    The Picus Security Validation Platform

     Info

    Overview

    The ongoing migration of workloads to the cloud continues to increase the challenge security teams face defending large IT estates against the latest threats. Picus Cloud Security Validation for AWS, part of the Picus Security Validation Platform helps you to stay on top of Cloud Security Posture Management and Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management by validating that AWS services and IAM policies are configured securely.

    Picus Security Control Validation, another licensable product in the Picus platform, extends validation even further by measuring the effectiveness of security controls to both prevent and detect attacks.

    Highlights

    • Simulate cloud-specific attacks to identify overly permissive policies that could enable attackers to escalate privileges and compromise AWS services.
    • Automatically audit key AWS services to identify and address cloud misconfigurations such as misconfigured resources, insecure data storage, logging deficiencies, and more.
    • Validate the effectiveness of network and endpoint security controls to prevent and detect thousands of real-world threats, including ransomware and APTs.

    They are doing good so far.Picus is still startup company and they are so close to customers but partner ecosystem can also be enhanced.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Biggest problem with security is the answering one question; "How Secure we are?" The answer is Picus. Security is very hard concept to demonstrate success. They say "Nobody is innocence of untested sings" Security is based on same manner. Without any proper test you can not be sure how secure you are. By using Picus we can test and measure how secure we are.
