Summary

CSPM, or Cloud Security Posture Management, is a process used to manage and monitor the security of cloud-based systems. This process involves the assessment of cloud security and the implementation of security measures to protect cloud-based systems from potential threats. This can include regular security audits, risk assessments, and the implementation of security protocols such as encryption and access controls. CSPM also involves the integration of DevSecOps for faster auto remedial deployment and with SIEM/SOAR tools for the management of security incidents, ensuring that they are handled quickly and effectively. The goal of CSPM is to ensure that cloud-based systems are protected from potential threats and remain secure, while also ensuring that the user experience is not impacted by security measures.
