Demystifying Elastic Security for Cloud and its capabilities

Elastic Security for Cloud aims to address the unique security challenges posed by cloud environments by integrating security analytics with a Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP). This approach consolidates various security capabilities, such as Cloud and Kubernetes Security Posture Management (CSPM and KSPM), Cloud Vulnerability Management, Cloud Workload Protection, and Container Workload Protection, into a single platform. Elastic’s platform provides a unified view of cloud risk, enhancing visibility and enabling organizations to manage security posture, detect vulnerabilities, and protect workloads across cloud-native applications. It offers features like continuous visibility, flexible policy enforcement, and integration with AWS services, while pricing is based on data consumption, making it cost-effective. The platform's capabilities are designed to facilitate collaboration between security and DevOps teams and provide comprehensive protection throughout the lifecycle of cloud-native applications. Existing Elastic Cloud customers have direct access to these features, and new users can start with a free trial to explore the platform's offerings.
