In the dynamic realm of cloud security, the challenge of maintaining a comprehensive view of your environment can feel like navigating a complex Kabuki play. The illusion of security, created by disconnected security tools, often leads to costly investigations and wasted resources. This is especially true when it comes to understanding the interplay between your cloud infrastructure and your perimeter firewalls.

The illusion of security, created by disconnected security tools, often leads to costly investigations and wasted resources. This is especially true when it comes to understanding the interplay between your cloud infrastructure and your perimeter firewalls.
You can't protect what you don't fully understand. True security relies on having a complete understanding of your assets, their vulnerabilities, and their current state. This context is crucial to avoid the pitfalls of false positives and delayed responses.
Cloud environments are particularly challenging due to their layered complexity, encompassing network reachability, identity management, and security control configurations. Without a unified view, security teams are left grappling with fragmented data, leading to misinterpretations and inefficiencies.
Enterprises frequently deploy robust firewalls such as Palo Alto NGFW, CloudFlare WAF and Cloud Provider WAFs to safeguard their cloud assets. However, a disconnect between these firewalls and native cloud security controls creates a dangerous blind spot. This gap leads to:
Stream Security dismantles the Cloud Kabuki with its innovative firewall unmasking capabilities. By correlating rules in Palo Alto firewalls with real-time cloud threat visibility, Stream provides a unified understanding of your security posture. This integration enhances SecOps efficiency by:
Stream Security goes beyond basic detection by providing real-time context across multiple layers:
Consider an RCE vulnerability on an internet-exposed EC2 instance. Without context, mitigation options are limited and potentially disruptive:
Stream Security’s real-time visibility allows teams to make informed decisions, considering the current threat landscape and operational requirements. By having the real time firewall context, a security team will be able to see that the RCE exploit is already blocked by a firewall rule, and can focus on patching during a maintenance window, instead of causing an emergency patch that disrupts production.
By providing real-time, layered context, Stream Security empowers security teams to focus on genuine threats, reducing false positives and improving overall efficiency. Stream's firewall unmasking capabilities are a game-changer, providing the clarity needed to navigate the complexities of cloud security and eliminate the illusions of the Cloud Kabuki.
Ensure your cloud environment remains secure and efficient by leveraging Stream Security’s real-time insights and mitigation strategies.
