A denial of service (DoS) attack makes an application, service, or network resource unavailable to legitimate users by overwhelming systems with traffic, requests, or state transitions.
Enterprises have started gradually shifting from perimeter-based defenses to more proactive and identity-centric protection. Zero trust architecture eliminates implicit trust assumptions by requiring continuous verification of every user, device, and transaction.
An SBOM contains an inventory of all software components, libraries, dependencies, versions, licenses, and relationships.
Docker vulnerability scanning is the automated process of analyzing container images to find known security weaknesses.
Wiz connects the dots across your cloud, from code to runtime.
Cloud incident response is a strategic approach to detecting and recovering from cyberattacks on cloud-based systems with the goal of minimizing the impact to your workloads and business operation accordingly.
