XM_AWS

Unified Cloud Continuous Controls Monitoring

XM Cyber’s partnership with AWS enables CISOs to better manage their cybersecurity ecosystem. They receive alerts from XM Cyber’s Continuous Controls Monitoring platform on the key aspects and issues in AWS Compute such as EC2, Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), SageMaker, CodeBuildand more. In AWS Networking they receive alerts such as VPCs, Security Groups, VPNs, Load Balancing, Transit Gateways and more. This joint effort helps enterprises manage their AWS cybersecurity environment and continuously monitor their cybersecurity ecosystem posture.

The integration between XM Cyber and AWS offers CxOs powerful and effective resilience visibility along with compliance validation and controls, to secure and monitor AWS Networking in an unprecedented manner. XM Cyber’s Continuous Controls Monitoring deploys to the corporate network automatically, in a matter of a few hours, predefined with security domains and CSC measurements to deliver three unique cybersecurity ecosystem views:

  • First, it provides organizations with the best indicators of the cybersecurity tools that may be misconfigured, malfunctioning, or lacking and should be added to provide complete cybersecurity protection.
  • It then reveals the security gaps that exist in each security domain and delivers continuous proactive recommendations to close these gaps.
  • Finally, XM Cyber’s machine learning analytics engine continuously calculates online measurements that represent normal behavior, and then alerts when a deviation from normal behavior is detected.

Fast and Secure Deployment

The XM Cyber Continuous Controls Monitoring connector for AWS Compute and Networking receives security and configuration data from the AWS server via a secure REST API.
