Our primary use case is related to using Wiz as a cloud-native application protection platform. We are currently in the midst of onboarding resources and streamlining the integration of Wiz.
My organization operates as a service provider for some small companies, so we started working with Wiz. I am not fully confident in discussing how work is going on with Wiz. I am having a training session on how to use the tool.
I use the solution for test and demo environments, and then we deploy the platform's last version for our customers. We use the advanced license type, so we have all the features in the platform. The tool is used for security assessment and maintaining our customers' correct security posture. We have different types of customers, so there are different types of use cases. But in general, the main need is for the maintenance of cloud security posture.
We use Wiz in our cloud security management by connecting it to our main cloud environment and other multi-cloud solutions. It helps us consolidate and manage information and risks, dividing them between VPCs and business units. Wiz keeps all information up-to-date and helps us identify any toxic connections within our cloud implementations.
Wiz is an agentless cloud assets vulnerability scanner. You don't need to install anything to use any of the machines. It takes snapshots and then scans it. It is interesting because all other scanners need to install some agent.

We currently use Wiz for cloud security management to identify and address vulnerabilities in our AWS platforms. Wiz is also integrated with our EKS clusters, allowing us to monitor and manage cluster security. We deploy sensors across our infrastructure, from the base level to more advanced setups, to gather comprehensive vulnerability data. Additionally, Wiz helps us manage our inventory and images. We have integrated Wiz with our ECR to monitor and secure container images through the ECR connector.

Our adoption has primarily been centered around understanding vulnerabilities in the environment and the configuration landscape in terms of creating hardening rules, policies, and other components like that. We're also able to see what the true risk landscape looks like by vulnerability tracking.
I have worked in security for a while, but I'm new to the cloud security world, and Wiz helps me understand how to secure cloud environments like AWS and Azure on the backend. We have about 50 Wiz users, including four admins and the SOC team. About 10 members of the CloudOps team have access.

I lead and manage our vulnerability management and threat intelligence program so relying on having quick visibility, coverage, comprehensiveness, and depth is an absolute benefit; Wiz agentless deployment and scaling give us that quick use CVE-based vulnerability scanning, detection, continuous monitoring, threat intelligence, and risk prioritization with little to no downtime or impact to availability. Lastly, the CSPM, threat-intelligence, and dashboard capability within Wiz gives leadership quick and efficient reporting on our overall risk in the cloud.

We use it to identify vulnerabilities in our cloud environment, including misconfiguration and other issues. More recently, we've used it to identify inactive resources that we can terminate to save money. It also helps us automate some minor tasks that we don't want to do manually, such as forwarding issues to the appropriate teams. Wiz has various workflows to route the vulnerabilities it discovers to the right teams. We integrated it with ServiceNow, enabling us to send ServiceNow incidents to the teams. We can also send Azure DevOps work items to developers. We're evaluating Jira for some teams, and Wiz can also send tickets to Jira.

Most of our use cases are within cloud security posture management, in which we identify misconfigurations and any type of what they call "toxic combinations" of risk and vulnerabilities that are affecting our cloud deployments.
Wiz is a highly efficient solution for data security posture management (DSPM), with a 100% API-based approach that provides quick connectivity and comprehensive scans of platform configurations and workloads. The solution allows companies to automatically correlate sensitive data with relevant cloud context, such as public exposure, user identities, entitlements, and vulnerabilities.This integration enables them to understand data accessibility, configuration, usage, and movement within...
