OpsNow introduces 'OpsNow Security' which evolved into an integrated CNAPP
- Evolution to CSPM OpsNow and CNAPP... Following existing CSPM and CWPP, CIEM functionality was added to enhance integrated automated response to cloud-wide threats
OpsNow, a company specializing in AI-based multi-cloud management platforms (OpsNow, https://opsnow.com) announced on the 28th that it has upgraded its cloud security platform “OpsNow Security (OpsNow Security)” to “CNAPP (Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform).” Following CSPM and CWPP, it is attracting attention because it is now possible to respond to threats across cloud environments by newly integrating CIEM functions that have recently been developed.
CNAPP is a next-generation cloud security solution that protects all cloud applications and infrastructure on a single platform. Since the entire process from security management to threat detection and response can be carried out in an integrated manner, it supports security operations in increasingly complex cloud environments more efficiently. In particular, companies are increasingly interested in being able to manage risk in an integrated and automated manner.
Previously, OpsNow Security has played a role in diagnosing and monitoring cloud resource configuration errors and policy violations, with a focus on CSPM functions. However, in the case of complex environments where various security threats occur simultaneously, such as vulnerabilities in the workload execution phase, excessive permission settings, and interactions between user rights, it was difficult to take all measures using CSPM alone.
As a result, OpsNow added CIEM functionality to OpsNow Security following CWPP, and reorganized the security target and scope to the entire cloud cycle as a 'true CNAPP'. In particular, this upgrade enables proactive and automated response to complex security threats within a single platform by supporting CVE and IAM permission risk detection and 'toxic combination (toxic combination) 'diagnosis that analyzes interactions between threats.
Furthermore, since 2022, OpsNow Security has been operating as an enterprise-wide standard cloud security platform for major domestic companies, and has been verified for stability and flexibility in policy response in actual environments. In the future, a DSPM (Data Security Posture Management) function will be added, and the scope of support will be expanded to include data security, such as detection of personally identifiable information (PII).
Meanwhile, the subscription system will also be reorganized in line with this upgrade. The existing 'Standard/ Premium' grade is redesigned with a more clear service range, and 'OpsNow Security Standard' is offered in a form that focuses on CSPM functions, and 'OpsNow Security Premium' includes advanced functions based on CNAPP.
Lee Jae-wook, Head of Product Strategy at OpsNow, emphasized that “the core of this OpsNow Security upgrade is to go beyond simple cloud security checks to establish a security operating system that automates threat identification and actual risk removal,” and said, “OpsNow Security will continue to develop into an expandable platform that can proactively respond to more sophisticated and rapidly changing security threats.”
