CloudQuery: Cloud Security Posture Management

Description:

Presented by: Tim Armstrong

Confused by security jargon like CSPM? Look no further! In this video, we will discuss Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM).

Many data breaches come from misconfigurations in cloud infrastructure, such as Public S3 Buckets or Over-Permissive access to sensitive data (on-screen: PII, client lists, transactions, etc.). Using a CSPM helps you prevent these before they happen and detect them if they already have.

Cloud Security Posture Management, or CSPM, describes a system that helps ensure you follow the best practices in Cloud Security.

A CSPM platform is a collection of Tools and Analytics designed to ensure Security and Compliance within Cloud Infrastructure.

The goal of your CSPM platform is to provide automated Visibility, Evidence, and Reporting.

Large cloud providers (like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud) have some coverage of their estates in internal tooling, but external solutions like the one in our upcoming tutorial offer something more.
