Cloud services have made infrastructure faster and more flexible—but also easier to misconfigure. Whether it’s an exposed database, an over-permissive IAM role, or a disabled encryption setting, small mistakes can lead to serious vulnerabilities.
That’s why CSPM scans—Cloud Security Posture Management—are becoming essential for any team running workloads in AWS, Azure, or GCP.
A good CSPM scan will automatically detect:
- Misconfigured storage or compute instances
- Publicly accessible resources
- Drift from security baselines
- Violations of industry frameworks like CIS or SOC 2
The problem with many legacy CSPM tools? They’re built for security teams, not developers—and they often flood you with low-priority alerts.
Aikido’s CSPM tool takes a different approach. It connects in minutes, flags only what matters, and is designed to fit into modern CI/CD workflows without getting in the way.
If you’re working in the cloud and want to tighten your security posture without slowing down your team, this is a smart place to start.
