TotalCloud offers written explanations to guide us through fixing security vulnerabilities and reducing cyber risks. For instance, if we click on a finding like "ensure public access level is set to private for block containers" a CIS Microsoft Azure Foundations benchmark, TotalCloud will not only tell us which specific container is failing but also provide remediation steps. These steps include a clear, step-by-step guide to fix the issue directly from the Azure console or command line, making it easy to address security risks. After deploying TotalCloud and configuring the connectors for Azure, we quickly gained visibility into our cloud security posture. While the initial setup gathers data, the overall process is swift and delivers immediate insights. TotalCloud offers a unified way to assess vulnerabilities and threats across both Asset-as-a-service and software-as-a-service applications. While an additional module, Software Detection Response, is required for the same level of detail in SaaS assessments, it integrates seamlessly with TotalCloud and gathers information through the Azure connector. Similarly, the SDR component is used for Microsoft 365 environments, consolidating all threat data into a single report. It has significantly enhanced our posture management insight and awareness. It provides a valuable third-party perspective, highlighting potential security issues we might have missed with Microsoft's built-in settings. This independent view offers a more objective assessment, similar to having a security expert unaffiliated with Microsoft or any specific platform. TotalCloud summarizes our cloud security risks in a single view, prioritizing the most important ones. It allows us to generate reports based on severity levels (critical, high, medium) and offers pre-built dashboards like the Azure one, which highlights the most critical control failures along with the number of affected resources. This way, we can focus on addressing the most urgent issues first. We can use TruRisk in TotalCloud to view a risk score for our virtual machines. This score indicates the overall security posture of the machine, along with details on identified vulnerabilities confirmed and potential. While the TruRisk score is a valuable integration, I haven't had the chance to fully explore its functionalities in our environment yet.
