Proactive alert management enhances network security and provides peace of mind
The reporting is really good from what I've seen so far. They are on top of the alerts, especially the critical ones. This proactive approach to alert management ensures that if someone downloads something on a workstation that shouldn't be downloaded, they address it quickly. Their ability to identify and provide information on critical alerts is very valuable.

Increased compliance and visibility boost cloud security posture
Upwind has great runtime detection and response capabilities for our cloud workloads. It provides great context for vulnerability management, allowing us to see what our most important vulnerabilities are. Upwind gives us insight into API security threats and helps us identify misconfigurations in our cloud environments to align with security frameworks like CIS or NIST. With Upwind, we have greatly increased our cloud security posture. Our compliance rates have improved significantly, and they have helped us automate vulnerability management and gain insights into API endpoint security.
