Purpose-built for Hybrid Cloud Security
With Uptycs, cutting-edge CNAPP technology meets unmatched security coverage and flexibility.
Deep Data Insights
Purpose-built CNAPP security provides a universal data model and rich UI for deep data context, risk detection, correlation, and prioritization, accelerating risk mitigation and simplifying SecOps.
Relies on disparate tools (acquired and open-source), hindering SecOps with a fragmented user experience due to disjointed integrations and data models.
Broad Security Coverage
Secures any hybrid cloud workload with sensor or agentless deployment, offering visibility, scanning, real-time protection, and fleet-level threat blocking with remediation capabilities.
While strong in container security, Aqua falls short in securing broader attack surfaces and cloud infrastructure, and struggles to scale with expanding deployments.
Customizable Threat Detection
Broad and customizable out-of-the-box coverage, including YARA-based behavioral detections and MITRE-mapped anomalies for fast analysis.
Lacks broader cloud context for correlation and utilizes prebuilt rules logic, making it challenging to create custom detections and potentially miss unique or advanced threats.
Comprehensive Risk Remediation
Correlates assets, activity, and risk across domains, prioritizing critical threats with runtime insights into identity, data, anomalies, and misconfigurations. Provides real-time remediation.
Provides static vulnerability management but lacks runtime context for prioritization. Offers limited posture management, no permissions management, and cannot correlate data for risk prioritization.
Deep Forensics
Supports extensive historical investigations with the ability to query data for up to 13 months, providing deep forensic insights and long-term security visibility.
Lacks robust historical data querying capabilities and limits investigations to prebuilt queries, which can restrict in-depth forensics.
