Palo Alto Networks has announced a series of updates coming to its Prisma Cloud platform that the company said automatically protects cloud-hosted virtual machines and can "Increase automation and detection, simplify compliance checks and deepen visibility into malware threats for containers and hosts." Prisma Cloud is a cloud-native security platform designed to protect cloud infrastructure and cloud-native applications. Palo Alto Networks Prisma Cloud SVP for product Varun Badhwar described the new features as a way to help businesses streamline and automate the security of their cloud-native products.
Unlike the traditional layered security approaches that place barriers between data and bad actors or standalone encryption for storage or communication, the confidential cloud delivers strong data protection that is inseparable from the data itself. Implementing a confidential cloud eliminates the potential for cloud insiders to have exposure to data, closing the data attack surface that is otherwise left exposed at the cloud provider.
That's why VMware is announcing VMware Telco Cloud Platform RAN. It is a platform that enables CSPs to virtualize radio access network functions and implement an open RAN architecture. "With Telco Cloud Platform RAN, we accelerate the disaggregation of the proprietary RAN and enable CSPs to modernize their RAN so they can monetize the 5G services they deliver across their network."

CSPM provides a single pane of glass for seeing your cloud vulnerabilities and security posture in real time. In reality, organizations need comprehensive and centralized visibility, security, and compliance, and a CSPM is the perfect tool to both improve and scale cloud security.
Whatever unit of measurement you use, it's clear that more and more enterprise computing is happening in the cloud - which also means the cloud is an ever-growing target for cyber attackers. SANS Institute has expanded its line-up of cloud-focused security courses, adding six freshly minted courses, with a seventh one currently in beta testing phase.
CrowdStrike announced a series of integrations with CrowdStrike Security Cloud that correlates the CrowdStrike Falcon platform's enriched endpoint and workload telemetry with network telemetry for greater end-to-end visibility and contextual insights to combat threats. These integrations with leaders in network detection and response and network threat analytics help mutual customers build a cohesive platform tailored to protect and defend against any threats across all enterprise software components, wherever those threats are encountered.
Lacework has announced that it has extended native security support for Amazon Web Services services including AWS Graviton2 and AWS Fargate. These additions give Lacework customers using AWS in-depth security visibility, threat detection, configuration compliance, and context into cloud security data and changes for all compute types: virtual machines, containers, containers as services, containers on demand, bare metal and serverless.
Cloud Sniper is an open-source platform for managing cloud security operations that aims to make it easy for cloud teams to deal with security incidents. "One of our main goals is end-to-end automation of security incident lifecycles. Cloud Sniper performs automatic actions from deployment via Terraform to findings management," Nicolás Rivero Corvalán, one of the tool's creators, told Help Net Security.
