CNAPPとは
- CNAPP (Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform)
- CNAPP is a cybersecurity solution designed to protect cloud-native applications throughout their lifecycle.
- It combines multiple security capabilities into a unified platform to address risks in cloud environments.
Key Features of CNAPP
1. Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM)
- Identifies and remediates misconfigurations in cloud infrastructure.
- Ensures compliance with security frameworks (e.g., NIST, CIS, ISO).
2. Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP)
- Protects workloads running in virtual machines (VMs), containers, and Kubernetes.
- Detects vulnerabilities, malware, and runtime threats.
3. Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM)
- Monitors and controls user permissions and identities in cloud environments.
- Prevents overprivileged access and insider threats.
4. Kubernetes and Container Security
- Scans container images for vulnerabilities.
- Secures containerized applications and Kubernetes clusters.
5. Shift-Left Security
- Integrates security earlier in the development pipeline (DevSecOps).
- Ensures vulnerabilities are fixed before deployment.
6. Threat Detection and Response
- Monitors cloud environments for suspicious activity.
- Uses AI/ML to detect and respond to attacks in real time.
Why CNAPP Matters
- Provides end-to-end cloud security by integrating multiple security tools.
- Reduces operational complexity by unifying security management.
- Helps organizations comply with regulations and prevent cloud breaches.
