My main use case for Upwind is cloud security and workload protection. I primarily use it to gain visibility into cloud assets, vulnerabilities, and runtime risks, and I mainly use it to prioritize the risks that actually matter and help the team focus remediation efforts instead of treating every finding equally. A specific example would be using Upwind to investigate a vulnerable cloud workload and determine if it was actually exposed or active at runtime. The runtime context helped us prioritize the issue based on real traffic and workload behavior instead of treating every vulnerability as equally urgent.

I have several use cases for Upwind. I will start with our private cloud that is based on Kubernetes, so we're using it also for Cloud Detection and Response and also for vulnerability scanning. We're also using it on our cloud provider as a CSPM. For Cloud Detection and Response, one of the biggest challenges is to have detection around containers, which we were missing visibility on, and with Upwind, we get it. Related to the vulnerability, because of the strong runtime sensor Upwind developed, it helps us to reduce many of the vulnerabilities that were classified by the shift left product that we used.
