Qualys TotalCloud (AI-Powered CNAPP)

Measure, communicate and eliminate cloud risk: one platform, one view, powered by TruRisk insights.

Cloud environments are complex and constantly changing, spanning virtual machines, containers, serverless functions, APIs and SaaS applications. Running a separate tool for each layer drives up cost and complexity while fragmenting visibility. Qualys TotalCloud is an AI-powered Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) on the Qualys Enterprise TruRisk Platform that rapidly inventories and assesses your entire cloud attack surface and lets you manage risk from one unified view.

Unified cloud security on a single platform

TotalCloud combines Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), Infrastructure as Code (IaC) security, Cloud Workload Protection (CWP), Cloud Detection and Response (CDR), Kubernetes and Container Security (KCS) and SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM) in one cloud-native platform. A flexible subscription lets you enable these capabilities as you need them, within the same subscription.

• Your whole attack surface in one inventory: Resources across AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure become visible through API connectors, the Qualys Cloud Agent, sensors and snapshot scanning.
• Prioritization with TruRisk: Misconfigurations, vulnerabilities and threats come together in a single risk view, so teams focus first on what truly matters.
• A bridge between security and cloud teams: Security’s governance policies and the cloud team’s need for speed meet in shared visibility.

CSPM: close misconfigurations before they become breaches

Cloud Security Posture Management builds a comprehensive inventory of your public cloud workloads and infrastructure and identifies misconfigurations and non-standard deployments across 100% of your cloud assets. It ships with more than 1,000 out-of-the-box controls, including Qualys best practices and CIS standards, supports 30+ compliance mandates such as PCI DSS and HIPAA, and offers complete CIS benchmark coverage. Misconfigurations can automatically trigger an alert, a ticket or remediation, with one-click remediation for many high-visibility controls.

IaC Security: build security into DevOps workflows

Infrastructure as Code Security assesses Terraform, CloudFormation and ARM templates before they reach production. Templates are scanned via CLI, API or plugins from repositories and CI/CD pipelines, applying the same checks as CSPM, such as ensuring an S3 bucket is not public and that access logging is enabled. AWS, Azure and GCP are supported.

Cloud Detection and Response (CDR): real-time response to active threats

CDR delivers continuous, real-time protection of your multi-cloud environment against active exploitation, malware and unknown threats. It monitors cloud network traffic and cloud activity logs, and Qualys deep learning algorithms detect malware, beaconing, suspicious communications and unauthorized activity quickly and accurately.

“Many clouds, one risk picture”: An enterprise running both AWS and Azure uses TotalCloud to track CIS compliance for both environments on the same dashboard. Its DevOps team catches errors in Terraform templates right in the pipeline, while CDR instantly flags suspicious beaconing traffic leaving a workload.
