Secure Shouldn’t Mean Slow
A New Approach to Cloud Infrastructure Security
Secure Cloud Workloads
without Compromising Productivity
The Cloud boosts business operations with unprecedented speed and flexibility. However, it also opens a new forefront of security challenges and threats.
Many security solutions have emerged to mitigate those threats, but only few do so without slowing the business down.
Effectively detecting and intercepting malicious activity without halting business processes is the primary mission of every security leader in a cloud-centric environment.
The 4 Elements of an Effective Cloud Workload Protection
GlobalDots has harnessed its 17-year industry experience to formulate the 4 critical factors for an effective, scalable Cloud Workload Protection solution.
AI-Based Anomaly Detection
We now know that abnormal behavior is preliminary to almost any fraudulent action - whether by an employee or a hacker. A system which learns normal usage patterns and self-adjusts as they evolve will be able to flag anomalies which will imply excessive permissions - without excessive alerts and workflow interruptions.
Consolidated
Most cloud infrastructure attacks are built over time and across multiple applications. Per each application’s security settings, each individual event might pass. Only a system with cross-infrastructure visibility can examine them in context. By drawing patterns and storylines out of seemingly sporadic and unrelated anomalies, complex attacks are easily detected.
Proactive, Automated Permission Hardening
Manual permission management at scale is hardly productive. Automated permission and misconfiguration hardening should be applied whenever excessive permissions or anomalies of a certain order occur. This will prevent any access abuse while considerably reducing stress and workload on IT and security teams.
Agile and Configurable
Policy differentiation between teams, units, and roles is crucial in any solution which should oversee the entire infrastructure. It allows a greater level of automation in the course of day-to-day operation. It decreases false alerts, prioritizes actual threats, and enables critical workflows to run uninterrupted.

Protect Fast. Work Faster.
-
Less Alerts, Higher AccuracyEliminate alert fatigue by putting an end to unimportant or unactionable alerts.We promote configurable, heavily-automated solutions which will proactively handle most scenarios, and will only flag what truly requires your attention. -
ComplianceTake one liability off your plate with quick, automated reporting, compliant with PCI DSS, ISO 27001, SOC2, and more, which apply to both enterprises and enterprise vendors. -
Real-Time Indications & SuggestionsTake no prisoners. Sophisticated, cross-infrastructure solutions mean early detection of attack attempts, applying smart correlation of seemingly unrelated, sporadic events along with suggestions for the most effective, time-efficient remediation. -
Behavior AnalyticsML-based solutions quickly adjust to “new normals” in terms of each team’s work practices, with little or no need to reconfigure. This means less workflow interruptions, and less daily maintenance for you.
