Drift-Detection

Cloud Native Security and Compliance Cloud native applications run across dynamic environments such as Kubernetes clusters, containers, and serverless functions. Security and compliance must be built in from the first line of code, not added after deployment. When teams design for speed, they should also design for trust, with clear policies and repeatable checks that travel with the software. Key security and compliance areas Identity and access management (IAM) and least privilege Image and runtime security for containers Secrets, configuration, and secret management Network policies, segmentation, and firewall rules Logging, tracing, and auditability Compliance mapping and policy as code A strong foundation makes it easier to pass audits and to protect data across clouds and teams. Treat policy as a first-class artifact, and let automated checks guide every change. ...

Cloud Security Posture Management Demystified Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) helps organizations see and fix security gaps across cloud environments. It turns security into a continuous habit, not a one-off audit. By scanning resources, CSPM shines a light on misconfigurations, risky permissions, and weak network rules. The result is fewer chances of data exposure and easier compliance across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and hybrid setups. CSPM works through three core activities: inventory, evaluation, and enforcement. First, it discovers assets across accounts and regions. Then it compares configurations to security baselines and known misconfigurations. Finally, it flags drift—when a change moves a resource away from the baseline—and it can trigger remediation steps or policy-driven responses. This combination helps teams stay ahead of changes rather than reacting after the fact. ...
