Most cloud breaches trace back to simple configuration errors. Continuous audits, identity controls, and workload protections are essential to keep cloud environments secure.

โ๏ธ Cloud Security Tools โ Essential Toolkit for Modern Teams ๐ก๏ธ๐
Cloud environments introduce new risks and require specialized tooling to secure workloads, configurations, and data. Use a mix of CSP-native and third-party tools to cover posture management, runtime protection, identity, and visibility. Key categories and examples: Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) โ Prisma Cloud, Dome9, Wiz for misconfig & compliance checks ๐; Cloud Workload Protection (CWPP) โ CrowdStrike, Trend Micro, Aqua for container and VM runtime defense ๐ณ๐ก๏ธ; Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) โ Netskope, Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps for SaaS visibility & data control โ๏ธ๐; Identity & Access Management โ AWS IAM/Azure AD hardening, BeyondTrust, Okta for strong auth & least privilege ๐; Threat Detection & SIEM โ Splunk, Sumo Logic, Datadog + cloud-native logging for alerting and forensics ๐; Vulnerability & Configuration Scanning โ Qualys, Tenable, Trivy for images and infra-as-code scanning โ๏ธ; Secrets Management โ HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager for safe key handling ๐; and Supply-chain & CI/CD security โ Snyk, Checkov, GitHub Advanced Security to catch insecure deps and pipelines ๐งฉ.

When a vulnerability is identified in a container image stored in a container registry or running in a Kubernetes cluster, it can be difficult for a security practitioner to trace back to the CI/CD pipeline that first built the container image and identify a developer remediation owner.
With DevOps security capabilities in Microsoft Defender Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), you can map your cloud-native applications from code to cloud to easily kick off developer remediation workflows and reduce the time to remediation of vulnerabilities in your container images.

Our labs project help you get ramped up with Microsoft Defender for Cloud and provide hands-on practical experience for product features, capabilities, and scenarios. The labs are divided into 3 main tracks, a beginner (level 100/200) and an advanced (level 300+) track. The labs contain several modules cover different pillars such as Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) to Cloud Workload Protection (CWP). To start using our labs, you will need to create Azure Trial Subscription which provides you all capabilities for 30 days โ so you have to finish this lab at this point to take advantage of the free trial.
