Cisco Umbrella Integration with CloudDefense.AI

What is Cisco Umbrella?

Cisco Umbrella is a cloud-based security platform that provides secure access to the internet for organizations and individuals. It acts as a DNS and web security gateway, allowing users to control and protect their networks from threats such as malware, phishing, and ransomware. By using DNS, it allows administrators to enforce security policies at the DNS layer, providing protection even before a connection is established.

Benefits of integrating Cisco Umbrella with CloudDefense.AI

Integrating Cisco Umbrella with CloudDefense.AI enhances the overall security posture of an organization's cloud infrastructure and applications. Cisco Umbrella provides a first line of defense by blocking connections to malicious domains and IPs. CloudDefense.AI complements this by offering comprehensive DevSecOps tools for code analysis, repository scanning, web application scanning, and assessments of cloud tools like CIEM (Cloud Infrastructure and Entitlement Management) and CSPM (Cloud Security Posture Management).

The integration of Cisco Umbrella with CloudDefense.AI extends the security coverage by combining DNS and web security with code analysis and application scanning. This integration helps to identify vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in both code and cloud infrastructure for remediation, ensuring a more secure cloud environment.

Securing Cloud Infra and Applications through DevSecOps Tools

CloudDefense.AI provides a range of DevSecOps tools that actively scan code repositories, web applications, and cloud tools to identify security weaknesses. It utilizes techniques such as static code analysis, dynamic application scanning, and attack graph mapping to identify potential vulnerabilities or threats. By identifying and addressing these issues early on in the development process, organizations can ensure the security and integrity of their cloud infrastructure and applications.

By integrating with cloud tools like CIEM and CSPM, CloudDefense.AI extends its security capabilities beyond code analysis and application scanning. It helps organizations gain insights into the security posture of their cloud infrastructure, assess potential risks, and take proactive measures to mitigate them. This holistic approach to security, encompassing both code and cloud tools, ensures that organizations have a comprehensive security strategy for their cloud resources.

In conclusion, integrating Cisco Umbrella with CloudDefense.AI provides a powerful combination of DNS and web security with advanced DevSecOps tools. This integration helps organizations secure their cloud infrastructure and applications, identifying vulnerabilities in code and cloud tools and taking proactive measures to remediate them.
