Learn how Cortex Cloud supports cloud security engineers and architects.

Cloud security engineers

Cloud security engineers or architects design and maintain a system that protects everything their organization hosts across various cloud service providers. Their goal is to achieve zero critical risks and compliance violations without blocking the productivity of other teams. Their responsibilities include:

• Deploying and managing cloud security tooling
• Performing cloud risk assessments (zero day vulnerability impact analysis)
• Detecting, prioritizing, and remediating cloud security alerts
• Collaborating with cross-functional teams to reduce risk (DevOps, App owners)
• Maintaining and monitoring compliance posture
• Generating security reports

With Cortex Cloud, cloud security engineers can:

• Get complete visibility without blind spots across multi cloud environments
• Manageable alerts
• Avoid manual parsing that prolongs risk assessment and reporting efforts
• Get better risk context that aids prioritization and remediation efforts with cross-functional teams
