It is time to re-examine my review of cloud native protection products, commonly known as CNAPP. The category has expanded to include more devsecops coverage, such as API and supply chain security, and more posture management tools for tracking data and SaaS apps.
The category is also under scrutiny because the CNAPP vendor landscape has shifted, most notably around Wiz. They recently were purchased by Google, who will maintain it as a separate division. Check Point Software has formed a strategic partnership with Wiz, and has discontinued selling its own CloudGuard CNAPP and will migrate its customers to Wiz. Lacework has been purchased by Fortinet and is now called Lacework Fortinet FortiCNAPP. Palo Alto Networks has rebranded and reconstituted its CNAPP offering as part of its Cortex Cloud product line.
My review for CSOonline has been updated to include 11 CNAPP vendors.
