Synthesis Security Platform's comprehensive runtime protection of cloud infrastructure moves beyond basic misconfigurations, detecting when inadequate security posture is actually being exploited
Announces freemium model for CSPM functionality, now available free of charge
The platform is far ahead of other security products whose focus is identifying numerous static cloud security misconfigurations. Skyhawk Synthesis goes beyond this, using ML to identify correlated sequences of high-priority runtime events and pinpointing exactly when least resistance paths have been exploited to compromise cloud infrastructure. Even when cloud architecture is 100% compliant and configured 100% correctly, these environments can still be breached. Skyhawk Security not only improves security posture but allows SOC teams to zero in on events that pose a real threat to their organization.
Skyhawk Synthesis provides a comprehensive platform that, in addition to CDR, also includes Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM), Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR), and advanced Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM). Skyhawk considers CSPM to be a baseline capability, and for that reason, it is now available for free. The freemium CSPM solution includes complete posture management and hardening, compliance reports, and governance enforcement for up to 1,000 assets.

Unlike competitors who focus solely on static cloud misconfiguration and at-rest scanning tools, Skyhawk Security’s Synthesis Platform surfaces runtime threats as they occur. It combines full awareness of inventory and least resistance paths with behavioral analytics and uses advanced context-based event correlation to connect suspicious activities into an attack sequence. This breakthrough approach cuts through the noise and elevates the awareness of actual alerts, or “Realerts” which pose a threat to the business. The results are presented within minutes in a CDR “Runtime Hub” that enables security analysts to react immediately to legitimate threats, while also reducing alert fatigue that other tools create.
“Cloud posture management is a major challenge; however, cloud security and SOC teams are overwhelmed trying to analyze and respond to the thousands of alerts brought on by current cloud security solutions,” said

About Skyhawk Security
Skyhawk Security is the originator of Cloud Threat Detection and Response (CDR), helping hundreds of users map and remediate sophisticated threats to cloud infrastructure in minutes. Led by a team of cyber security and cloud professionals who built the original CSPM category, Skyhawk Security evolves cloud security posture management far beyond scanning and static configuration analysis. Instead, using advanced ML sequencing of context-based behaviors, Skyhawk provides CDR within a ‘Runtime Hub’. Sequences are constantly evaluated and flagged as actual alerts, or realerts, once the risk threshold has been reached, eliminating alert fatigue. Incorporating user permissions and compromised identities to provide the observability security teams need to fully understand the cause of an incident, Skyhawk customers can quickly detect and remediate malicious activities across multiple cloud platforms as they happen. Skyhawk Security is a spin-off of
