Comprensión de la gestión de postura de seguridad en la nube (CSPM)
How to Proactively Seek Out and Remediate Misconfiguration and Compliance Issues in Your Cloud Environments
Cloud security posture management (CSPM) is a proactive way to seek out and fix misconfigurations within your cloud environment. It’s an important element of a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy for your modern attack surface. ¿Por qué? Because traditional, legacy approaches for on-prem infrastructure generally don’t function well in cloud environments. CSPM can help your organization discover cloud-based security issues, for example, misconfigurations, drift or other security and compliance risks.
With cloud security posture management, your cloud security teams can monitor and report on security and compliance issues across your multi-cloud environment. CSPM is also a great way to include continuous cloud security monitoring capabilities into your production environment, helping your teams uncover security issues within your cloud infrastructure so they can fix them before deployment. And then, once deployed, you can use CSPM to automatically uncover any cloud infrastructure policy violations for remediation.
In this knowledgebase, learn more about what cloud security posture management is and how, combined with risk-based vulnerability management principles, you can automate cloud-based threat detection and prioritize remediation of risks within your cloud environments.

Stop piecemealing your cybersecurity program together with disparate tools that return too much data with little or no context. Tenable Cloud Security gives you a unified, single view of your cloud attack surface so you can proactively address risks across all of your environments.
Unified Cloud Security Posture Management
Modern organizations operate across highly complex, distributed environments. As the attack surface expands and applications quickly spin up and down in the cloud, it can be increasingly difficult to get a handle on all of the risks across your threat landscape. These issues are further complicated by the lingering impact of disparate resources and tools designed to help secure your environments but instead return data that’s hard to digest and apply to your real-world work environments.
If these issues weren’t difficult enough to overcome, with a shortage of cybersecurity professionals around the globe, many teams struggle to get the right people in the right positions to ensure they’re on top of emerging risks and new vulnerabilities.
But, getting comprehensive insight across your entire attack surface — even multi-cloud environments — doesn’t have to overwhelm your teams. By implementing unified cloud security posture management, your security professionals can more effectively get visibility into all of your cloud assets, reduce risk, improve compliance and proactively remediate misconfigurations and other security issues.
In this CSPM data sheet, learn more about how you can:
- Speed up cloud adoption and meet compliance requirements
- Unify cloud security across your vulnerability management teams, cloud security architects and engineers, and developers and DevOps engineers
- Automate drift detection and orchestrate remediation
- Build cloud-security best practices into your DevSecOps workflows

Vulnerability Management from Cloud to Code: Su guía para la CSPM moderna
As your cloud environments become more complex and dynamic, it can be difficult to get visibility into all of the vulnerabilities, misconfigurations and other security issues. Many teams also get bogged down in reactive security measures, stuck in a loop of addressing exposures after deployment, instead of proactively seeking those out while still in development.
So, how do you get complete and continuous visibility into all of your assets, including those in the cloud, so you can seek out and remediate issues before attackers take advantage of them? This is where CSPM plays an important role in your exposure management strategy. By employing CSPM, your teams can effectively extend vulnerability management from code to the cloud.
This eBook explores how you can fully secure your cloud environments, find and fix software flaws and discover and remediate identity compromises and misconfiguration issues across your software development lifecycle — and down your supply chain.
Read on to learn more about:
- How to secure infrastructure as code (IaC)
- How to remediate in IaC
- What to look for in a CSPM solution
Efficiently Orchestrate Remediation to Achieve DevSecOps
Modern security teams are becoming more integrated. While breaking down traditional silos that previously hindered much-need visibility and contextual data is critical to effective exposure management, it can still be challenging to manage the security workflow across a constantly changing attack surface, especially with the pace of acceleration in cloud environments.
Legacy vulnerability management practices aren’t enough to secure the cloud; however, cloud security posture management can help teams put automation to work to effectively find and fix security issues throughout the software development lifecycle, without slowing development and before issues exist in runtime.
So, how can you identify and remediate these issues before deployment? That’s where infrastructure as code (IaC) steps in. With a shift-left away from focusing purely on remediating issues reactively in runtime, IaC is a proactive approach to discovering and fixing security issues before production.
This white paper explores how your teams can leverage orchestrated remediation for DevSecOps with confidence. Read more to learn about:
- IaC benefits
- The benefits of shifting left
- The differences between unsupervised and supervised remediation
Guía empresarial de Policy as Code
As more organizations embrace cloud-native architecture, questions emerge about how to effectively ensure security best practices are embedded into constantly changing systems. If you’re using traditional vulnerability management practices built for on-prem IT, then you may have significant security gaps in your cloud environment.
How can your organization ensure that security is integrated into your software development lifecycle so your teams can move away from reactive measures to proactive exposure management for the cloud? This white paper takes a closer look at policy as code (PaC) and explores how you can effectively apply it to your software development lifecycle and ensure compliance with your security requirements.
Read more to learn about how to:
- Enforce security and operational policies early in design
- Use policy as code to find security issues and identify risks
- Ensure compliance with policies in runtime
Siete pasos para reforzar la postura de seguridad en la nube.
Cloud breaches are continuing to increase, even as organizations make more investments in cybersecurity tools such as threat detection and incident response. Almost half of breaches today are cloud-based, highlighting poor cloud cyber hygiene practices that open doors to cyberattacks.
Misconfigurations, unpatched vulnerabilities and outdated systems in the cloud are often overlooked or undetected — everything from open ports and unencrypted data to malware and permissions and authentication issues. On top of that, most security teams are already struggling to keep up with the vast amount of security alerts they get and attackers are eager to exploit any attack vector they can find.

Cómo elegir una herramienta moderna de CSPM para reducir el riesgo de su infraestructura en la nube
As more organizations embrace the cloud, especially with the growing number that moved to remote teams during the pandemic, security and compliance teams are trying to keep up with managing cloud risks. Cloud security posture management is a tool that can help. With automated detection, teams can ramp up their abilities to detect and fix cloud security and compliance issues, especially for those developed and deployed in the cloud.
While CSPM initially focused on finding and fixing exposures in runtime, along with monitoring for drift, it’s becoming increasingly necessary to shift left to give much-needed attention to security throughout the entire software development lifecycle — from code to cloud.
But, with many CSPM solutions on the market, how do you know which is best for your organization?
First, look for a cloud security solution that enables your teams to do four key things:
-
Secure infrastructure as code (IaC)
Ask questions such as:
- Which types of IaC are supported?
- ¿Cuántas políticas predefinidas hay disponibles?
- Which compliance and security standards are supported?
-
Monitor infrastructure configurations in runtime
Ask questions such as:
- Which runtime environments are supported?
- ¿La solución identifica la creación o terminación de recursos en relación con una base de referencia segura definida a lo largo de IaC?
- ¿La solución identifica los cambios en la configuración de un recurso a partir de su definición en la base de referencia de IaC?
-
Remediate through IaC with IaC serving as a single source of truth
Ask questions such as:
- Cuando se realiza un cambio en tiempo de ejecución, ¿la solución genera automáticamente el código para resolver el problema?
- Does the solution programmatically create pull or merge requests with the code update the IaC and remediate the drift created in runtime?
-
In addition to these key areas, look for a cloud security posture management solution that will:
- Programmatically detect and resolve misconfigurations during development via IaC
- Maintain security posture in runtime
- Have these four key capabilities:
- Policy as Code
- Security as code
- Remediation as Code
- Drift as code

Learn MoreContinuous Security Posture and Risk Management of Infrastructure-as-Code
For most cloud-native applications, a traditional approach to cloud security focuses on discovering infrastructure-related vulnerabilities such as policy violations and cloud-resource misconfigurations after deployment. Yet, doing so inherently introduces unnecessary cyber risks into your cloud environment. Once these issues happen in runtime, there is an increased chance an attacker could exploit them.
The alternative and much-more proactive solution is to seek out and resolve these security issues early in the software development lifecycle and then continuously monitor after deployment.
So, how do you do this? It begins with integrating cloud security from an infrastructure as code perspective so you can more effectively see and address your risks from coding and integration and from delivery through deployment.
With Tenable Cloud Security, for example, you can detect and remediate security risks even before provisioning your public cloud infrastructure for cloud-native applications. From there, it can also help prevent vulnerabilities or other security issues from occurring in IaC. Then, after development, you can use it to detect any changes to your cloud environment, and then update source code so application updates don’t create new vulnerabilities.
Proactively Address and Manage Your Cloud Security Risks
Tenable Cloud Security will empower your cloud security teams with a unified view of all of your cloud assets and their related vulnerabilities so you can understand where you’re exposed to cloud risks, anticipate the attack consequences and then effectively remediate issues and communicate risks across your organization for better decision-making.

Security Defined As Code
Most modern organizations now have a cloud-first strategy. With that, what was once a lengthy process to deploy new applications can now be done with just a few commands. And while that creates a number of operational benefits and efficiencies, it also introduces new risks your security team must be prepared to seek out, act upon and continuously manage. This blog takes a closer look at security defined as code and why it should be an integral part of your cybersecurity program.
Cyber Concerns Still Hamper Cloud Value
During a Tenable webinar, attendees were asked about their cloud security practices, revealing that almost 50% use a combination of hybrid cloud, on-prem and multi-cloud environments, yet less than 35% currently have a cloud security posture management solution in production. This blog takes a closer look at some of the top issues in cybersecurity, including exploring if cyber concerns will still hamper cloud value and remain an obstacle.
A Practical Approach for Shifting Left
Legacy cloud security posture management practices have long focused on finding and remediating security issues in runtime, which creates increased opportunities for attackers to exploit them. To manage your cloud environments more effectively, it’s necessary to shift left and think about integrating cloud security into your entire SDLC. This blog takes a closer look at ways your DevOps teams can find and fix vulnerabilities and misconfigurations early and monitor them for changes post-deployment.
