The Confidence Standard · Solutions · Prevention Pillar

Cloud agility.

Without the blind spots.

CNAPP, CSPM, workload and container security.

The cloud gives you agility and scale, and a genuinely different attack surface: misconfigurations, exposed storage,
over-permissioned identities, containers nobody is watching. Single-cloud or multi-cloud, we give you the visibility,
control and compliance posture to use that agility without carrying its risk.

 

Solution layer, paired with the Professional Service that deploys it and the Managed Service that runs it.

where this sits

Part of the Cybersecurity portfolio, Prevention pillar.

This solution serves the CISO KPI: Risk Reduction. It is not sold in isolation, every deployment pairs with the Professional Service that installs it and, usually, the Managed Service that runs it day to day.

PILLAR 01

INSIGHT

Assessments surface cloud misconfiguration and exposure

PILLAR 02

PREVENTION

Cloud Security closes the ranked gaps

PILLAR 03

RESILIENCE

MDR and IR cover what gets through anyway.

what it covers

Capabilities, not a feature list.

Cloud posture management (CSPM)

Continuous misconfiguration and compliance-risk detection across Azure, AWS and multi-cloud estates.

Workload & container security

Protect workloads from build to runtime, including Kubernetes and containerized environments.

Identity & access risk in the cloud

Find and fix over-permissioned roles and excess access before they become the path an attacker uses.

Full attack-path visibility (CNAPP)

how we select

Vendor-agnostic is a method, not a slogan. Here it is.

Anyone can claim to be vendor-agnostic. The claim only means something if you can see the steps that make it true.

STEP 01

Assess the environment

Current tools, coverage gaps, and what the ranked risk picture actually needs. No product demo before that.

 

STEP 02

Shortlist, vendor-agnostic

2–3 fits from the roster, scored against your environment and budget.

 

STEP 03

Deploy & integrate

Professional Services handles configuration, integration and tuning, and stays through the tuning period rather than handing you a license and leaving.

STEP 04

Run it, or hand it back

Move into the matching Managed Service, or keep it in-house. Both are a genuine option here.

the roster

Some of the vendors we work with in this category.

Not every name on this list fits every environment

This is a curated roster. Scale, industry, compliance obligations and existing stack all narrow it. The discovery call establishes which 2–3 are worth evaluating for you, out of 10.

beyond the license

Cloud security stops working the moment it stops being continuous

A CNAPP deployed once and never revisited drifts back into risk within months, as new services, teams and misconfigurations accumulate. Our Managed Cloud Security service keeps it current.

What the managed layer covers

  • 24/7 threat monitoring and response across cloud workloads
  • Misconfiguration and compliance-risk detection, remediated continuously
  • Identity and access risk management for cloud roles and permissions
  • Container and Kubernetes security from development through deployment

What stays yours to decide

  • Whether you run it in-house, hand it to us, or split the two
  • Which vendor from the shortlist, based on your own evaluation
  • The pace of rollout, phased or full cutover
  • Exit at contract renewal, no lock-in penalty for leaving
where this connects

This solution rarely stands alone

Questions we get asked

Straight answers before you talk to anyone.

We are told DEG is "vendor-agnostic" everywhere. What does that actually mean for cloud?

It means the shortlist is built from your cloud provider, workload types and compliance obligations, and never from which platform is easiest for us to sell. A CNAPP built for AWS-native shops isn't automatically right for an Azure-first environment, and multi-cloud changes the calculation again. [CONFIRM]: confirm whether a sample selection scorecard can be shown publicly on this page.

Does this replace our cloud provider’s native security tools?

Not usually, it typically sits alongside them. Native tools (Azure Defender, AWS GuardDuty) cover their own platform well; the gap is cross-cloud visibility, attack-path correlation and consistent policy across providers, which is what a CNAPP layer adds.

 

Do you develop your own tools, or resell them?

We resell and integrate. We're a solution provider working across a curated vendor roster, not a manufacturer, so recommendations are driven by what your environment and risk picture need, not by which product we happen to build. Licensing runs through DigitalEra, so support and integration stay with one relationship instead of being split across the vendor and us.

 

Can you work with tools we already own?

Usually, yes, and it's often the cheapest starting move. A large share of the risk reduction we find in assessments comes from finishing the configuration of tools you've already purchased. We'll tell you plainly when that's the better answer than a new license.

 

How do you actually pick between vendors?

Against your environment, your existing stack, your compliance obligations and your budget: scored on a documented method, not decided by preference. [CONFIRM]: confirm whether a named selection scorecard or matrix can be shared publicly, since showing the method is what makes the “vendor-agnostic” claim credible.

Keep the agility. Close the blind spots.

A short discovery call establishes your cloud footprint, compliance needs, and a shortlist worth evaluating, out of the 8 platforms on the full roster.
