Neo Security: Securing Infrastructure in the Agentic Era
Blog post from Pulumi
Pulumi has introduced Neo Security, a research-preview AI agent designed to identify exploitable cloud infrastructure vulnerabilities that static code analysis may miss. Using Pulumi’s context graph, Neo examines an organization’s resources, dependencies, identities, runtime data, infrastructure code, policy results, and cloud-provider validation tools to build a threat model, map potential attack paths, and verify risks across environments including AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Kubernetes, and non-IaC-managed resources. Its read-only assessment ranks validated findings by severity and confidence, covering issues such as overly permissive identity roles, public network exposure, weak encryption, unrotated credentials, and improperly shared data. Where infrastructure source code is available, Pulumi can translate findings into proposed code changes and pull requests while leaving deployment within existing review workflows. The company says tests with production environments found previously unknown critical vulnerabilities, and it is offering initial scans free to a limited group of invited customers during the preview.
