Uptycs Launches Cloud Security with Full Blast Radius Mitigation

Uptycs

Uptycs, a leader in Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) solutions, has introduced a comprehensive workload protection and blast radius mitigation framework for cloud security, aimed at Security Operations Centers (SOCs), IT, and operations teams. Uptycs is the first to deliver a full-spectrum framework from threat detection to root cause analysis, enhancing visibility, control, and security across environments.’

With the rise of sophisticated threats from AI-driven applications and high-profile breaches like SolarWinds and CodeCov, Uptycs’ solution addresses the need for runtime detection, root cause analysis, and remediation. Its single-platform approach unifies key security capabilities, including:

  • Runtime observability and threat detection with behavior-based techniques
  • Blast radius mitigation to contain and remediate threats
  • Deep root cause analysis to trace threats to code level, ensuring quick containment

Uptycs’ structured security sequence—from detecting suspicious workload activity to containing and securing the cloud—sets a new industry benchmark in end-to-end threat lifecycle management. This proactive five-step process covers:

  1. Threat Detection in Workloads – Using behavior and anomaly-based detection, Uptycs identifies network, file, and process activity, and uses ML to identify potential deviations as well as identify behaviors that could signal malicious activity.
  2. Unified Risk Assessment and Attribution – Once an anomaly or threat is detected, Uptycs adds critical context, evaluating asset exposure, lateral movement potential, and access to sensitive data.
  3. Containment through Policy Enforcement – Uptycs provides end to end containment and runtime enforcement through its Protect eBPF Sensor including the ability to prevent lateral movements, kill cryptominers, and ransomware instantly.
  4. Root Cause Analysis & Image Provenance – After containment, Uptycs traces threats to code commit level, ensuring deep-rooted issues are addressed and mapped to CIS Software Supply Chain guidelines.
  5. DevSecOps Guardrails & Risk Mitigation – Uptycs establishes automated controls to prevent similar threats, reinforcing security across CI/CD pipelines and proactively securing production.

Uptycs offers a unique, comprehensive blast radius containment strategy unmatched in the CNAPP market,” said Ganesh Pai, Uptycs CEO and Co-Founder. “This enables teams to detect, trace, and remediate vulnerabilities at the code level, aligning with modern infrastructure demands.”
