Introducing The Champion Center: Operationalize and Measure Cloud Security Maturity Across Your Organization

Centralize security insights, scale adoption, and demonstrate measurable cloud security progress with Wiz

3 minutes read

Operationalizing cloud security requires leaders to build successful programs by fostering structure, visibility, and accountability across their teams. These leaders need tools to scale their efforts in identifying, correlating, and addressing risks—across all security pillars ( identity, vulnerabilities, data security, and more). The Wiz Champion Center empowers these leaders—Wiz Champions—to operationalize their cloud security programs by setting clear goals, measuring progress with critical metrics, and demonstrating the business impact of their efforts. With centralized insights into Wiz adoption, security posture, and key achievements, The Champion Center provides leaders with a comprehensive view of their cloud security program’s maturity and progress. 

Strengthen security coverage while driving accountability 

The Champion Center equips security leaders with the tools to unify and accelerate security coverage across their cloud environments. Wiz Champions can delegate ownership by assigning module champions—leaders of other teams responsible for specific areas like vulnerability management or data security—while setting clear goals, priorities, and deadlines to ensure progress towards organizational goals. 

 

The Champion Center drives engagement by celebrating security milestones with achievement badges like the 'Vulnerability Vanquisher,' which is awarded for fixing vulnerabilities tied to critical Wiz Issues. These badges motivate and reward teams for achieving security milestones, reinforcing their contributions to a unified, resilient security strategy.

The Wiz Champion Center has given us the visibility to track overall cloud real estate posture and ensure our environments are fully connected and healthy. With its centralized insights, we can reduce cloud risks and implement quicker remediations empowering our teams and showing the value of our efforts to leadership. We’re excited to see how Champion Center will help us continue to support and enhance our security programs.

Reduce Cloud Risks with centralized security insights 

Reducing cloud risk is essential to building a resilient security program. The Champion Center equips security leaders with the Wiz Security Score—customizable to any compliance framework—offering a snapshot of current risk levels and trendlines for key metrics like MTTR for critical Issues. By tracking these trends, teams can measure progress in reducing risks and focus remediation on the most critical vulnerabilities. Compliance benchmarks further help organizations evaluate their posture and ensure alignment with industry standards. With these insights, the Champion Center empowers teams to mitigate risks proactively and strengthen cloud security. 

Democratize and empower teams to own security

Democratizing security empowers each team to take ownership of their domains and contribute to a unified security strategy. The Champion Center gives security leaders real-time visibility into active users, enabled integrations, projects, and trendlines for user activity. This visibility helps champions identify which teams are actively engaging with Wiz and leveraging its integrations, such as Splunk for SOC teams or Jira for developers. It also highlights gaps in adoption, like when critical integrations, such as sending Wiz Issues to your Security Data Lake, are not enabled, allowing champions to guide teams toward better engagement and alignment with organizational goals.

Demonstrate Business Value of your cloud security program


The Champion Center’s Business Value Calculator empowers security leaders to quantify Wiz's business impact on their organization. By inputting organization specific data, leaders can evaluate productivity gains, cost savings from tool consolidation, and time saved across key security workflows through automation and enhanced visibility provided by Wiz.  This insight helps leaders communicate Wiz’s value effectively, demonstrating operational efficiency and securing executive buy-in by showcasing the ROI of cloud security. 

Tell the story of your security maturity


The Wiz Champion Center provides security leaders with a comprehensive hub to drive adoption, manage risk, and demonstrate the business impact of their cloud security program. By empowering teams to take ownership of security and providing clear visibility into progress and program effectiveness, the Champion Center helps organizations build a mature, resilient security program.  

As Wiz evolves with new features and products, the Champion Center will grow alongside it, continuously adding new modules, metrics, and tools to become the ultimate hub for advancing security maturity and centralizing visibility.
