Disparate tools make visibility difficult
What if, through automation, you could continuously assess security and compliance posture from a single place?
CSPM
Simpler cloud security posture management
Reduce risks and meet compliance requirements without overwhelming your security team.
Old methods can’t match cloud speed
Modern DevOps practices will always outpace outdated, manual security practices.
Lack of context can slow down assessments
What if you could prioritize your most harmful misconfigurations and compliance violations based on real world attack behavior?
Proving compliance requires time-consuming processes
What if you could quickly provide security assurance to stakeholders with predefined and custom reports?

- Pair with an agent for deeper telemetry and analysis of workload processes and threats.
Continuously assess risk with pre-built and custom policies
- Automatically monitor and detect misconfigurations and suspicious cloud activity.
- Assess your posture and compliance against hundreds of pre-built policies for standards like PCI, HIPAA, NIST, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and more.
- Set custom policies across cloud providers to meet requirements specific to your organization.
- Get better alert context by assessing risk alongside abnormal user and resource activity like failed logins and IAM escalations.
Validate and prove compliance
- See how a specific check applies to all resources across multiple accounts within a cloud service provider via a single dashboard.
- Quickly provide proof and demonstrate your security posture and compliance for customers, partners, and auditors with push-button reports.
- Create custom reports to meet your specific security and compliance needs.
- Get reports in multiple formats like PDF and CSV.
Speed remediation with integrations and guidance

- Prioritize alerts and best practice violations with severity and risk scores.
- Use attack path analysis and other context-rich remediation guidance to fix misconfigurations fast.
- Accelerate fixes by integrating with tools like Jira and Slack.
“Lacework was able to show us where we were deficient in our baseline configuration when we were comparing ourselves against the NIST 800-171 and NIST 800-53 standards. That was able to land us some very important business.”

Common questions about CSPM
What is cloud security posture management (CSPM)?
A core element of a cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP), CSPM provides the needed visibility to assess risk properly. This functionality allows you to accurately and continuously assess your risks due to misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and compliance violations. You can validate your posture against industry best practices and prove compliance with customers, auditors, and others.
Why is security and compliance for cloud native resources hard for many organizations?
It is challenging to build a consistent security and compliance posture due to the ephemeral nature of cloud-native resources. Misconfigurations of cloud assets are common and can expose data or leave you open to attack. In addition, manual security practices and processes cannot keep pace with cloud environments.
What are CSPM best practices?
Follow this CSPM checklist to build a strong security posture:
- Conduct an inventory of your cloud assets to understand what you have
- Automate security policy controls to prevent misconfigurations and reduce risk
- Validate your security and compliance posture against industry benchmarks and best practices
- Embed checks into developer pipelines by scanning IaC templates for misconfiguration
- Quickly address the most urgent cloud security misconfigurations, so you start your compliance journey with a solid baseline
