Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP)

The Aqua Cloud Native Security Platform is a full-lifecycle Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP). It secures cloud native applications from code to cloud, covering containers, Kubernetes, serverless functions, VMs and AI workloads across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

Aqua combines agentless and agent-based security to deliver deep visibility, risk prioritization and runtime protection without slowing down development or operations.

Key capabilities

• Code and software supply chain security: Scan source code, container images, IaC and other artifacts to detect vulnerabilities, secrets, misconfigurations and supply chain risks before they reach production.
• Cloud security posture management (CSPM): Continuously assess cloud accounts and Kubernetes for misconfigurations, policy violations and compliance gaps, with guided remediation.
• Coud workload protection (CWPP): Protect containers, Kubernetes, serverless and VMs at runtime with behavioral controls, drift prevention and granular policies.
• AI workload security: Govern AI and LLM workloads, control model access and detect misuse across cloud native environments.
• Compliance and governance: Map controls to common standards (e.g. PCI, HIPAA, GDPR) and generate evidence with detailed audit trails.
• Hybrid and multi-cloud support: Single platform and policy engine across major clouds and on-prem, including Kubernetes distributions and container platforms.

Typical outcomes

• Reduce cloud and container security risk across the full application lifecycle
• Gain unified visibility and control for containers, serverless, VMs and AI workloads
• Embed security into DevOps / DevSecOps pipelines without blocking delivery
• Meet compliance requirements in modern cloud native environments
