What is CloudSploit
CloudSploit is a cloud security assessment tool that scans cloud accounts for misconfigurations, risky settings, and compliance gaps. It is used by security and DevOps teams to evaluate cloud environments against security best practices and common benchmarks. The product is commonly deployed as an automated scanner that produces findings and remediation guidance across supported cloud services.
Misconfiguration-focused cloud scanning
CloudSploit centers on identifying insecure configurations across cloud services rather than only host-based vulnerabilities. It maps checks to common security best practices and produces actionable findings. This makes it suitable for continuous posture assessment in cloud-first environments. It also aligns well with teams that need quick visibility into configuration drift.
Broad library of checks
The product includes a large set of built-in checks that cover many common cloud security and compliance control areas. This reduces the need to author custom rules for baseline posture management. Teams can use the existing checks to standardize assessments across accounts and projects. The approach supports repeatable audits and recurring scans.
Automation-friendly workflows
CloudSploit is commonly used in scheduled or pipeline-driven scanning workflows to support DevSecOps practices. It can be integrated into routine security operations to detect issues early and track remediation. This helps teams shift posture validation closer to deployment cycles. The output is structured for triage and follow-up work.
Limited depth beyond CSPM
CloudSploit primarily targets cloud configuration and posture checks, which may not replace dedicated runtime protection or endpoint controls. Organizations often still need separate tools for workload runtime detection, EDR, or advanced threat hunting. This can increase tool sprawl for teams seeking an all-in-one platform. Fit depends on whether posture management is the primary requirement.
Remediation may be manual
Findings typically require engineering teams to implement fixes in cloud consoles or infrastructure-as-code. Compared with platforms that provide guided workflows, ticketing automation, or policy-as-code enforcement, remediation orchestration can be less comprehensive. This may slow closure rates in large environments. Teams should validate how results flow into their existing ITSM and CI/CD processes.
Feature set varies by deployment
Capabilities and integrations can differ depending on how CloudSploit is deployed and which cloud services are in scope. Some organizations may need additional configuration to achieve continuous coverage across multiple accounts and regions. Reporting and governance needs can outgrow basic scan outputs in regulated enterprises. Buyers should confirm support for their required benchmarks and reporting formats.
