CloudPassage announced that Halo Cloud Secure is now available in a full-featured free version. The free edition of this cloud security posture management (CSPM) service will inventory and continuously monitor the security and compliance of IaaS accounts, services, and resources.
Unified cloud security platform for free
Cloud security is a significant industry problem by the increase of remote workers in the course of 2020. Industry research indicates that 99% of cloud security issues are the cloud user’s fault. 99% of cloud misconfigurations go unreported, exposing enterprises to data loss and theft. The Halo free edition allows users to automate asset discovery, inventory, configuration assessment, and security and compliance monitoring across AWS, Azure, and GCP accounts.
Carson Sweet, founder and CEO of CloudPassage, said,
“We at CloudPassage believe that cloud security is important enough that every company should be able to protect their assets in the cloud, and cost shouldn’t be a barrier to entry. That’s why we’re offering comprehensive CSPM capabilities, expert advice for resolving security issues, and hooks to automate security and compliance for free, forever. No gotchas, pay-walls, or expectations.”
The free edition of Halo Cloud Secure offers the same features and capabilities as the Essentials and Enterprise versions. It is a unified cloud security platform that automates security and compliance for servers, containers, and IaaS resources across any mix of public, private, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments.
