Businesses have struggled with early detection of security risks in the cloud with challenges in monitoring assets in dynamic environments running in development and production. Paladin Cloud addresses this by maintaining a real-time cyber asset inventory, allowing CISOs and security teams to discover and visualize their attack surface. The company’s agentless cloud monitoring and alerting capabilities coupled with third party integrations into widely deployed enterprise systems provides security teams with the ability to ensure their security controls and protections over their cyber assets are providing the intended coverage. The company’s security-as-code capabilities allows organizations to manage their overall security posture across their cyber assets to ensure governance and compliance with best practice security policies.

“As enterprises accelerate their move to the cloud, CISOs and security teams will need to take a holistic approach to cloud security, one that defines their cyber asset attack surface and extends their security posture,” said Daniel Deeney, Co-founder and CEO. “Organizations will need to develop early detection capabilities to identify and remediate vulnerabilities and misconfigurations to protect applications and data.”

Built on top of Paladin Cloud’s open source core, the new SaaS platform contains hundreds of best practice security policies implemented in code in the product. The platform serves as an extensible policy management plane with connectors into enterprise systems to provide a holistic view of security across multi and hybrid cloud environments.
