Cloud Native Workloads Demand a Cloud Native Runtime Solution

Combining runtime and agentless approaches delivers a security solution specifically designed for cloud environments, offering complete workload security, advanced threat detection, real-time blocking, cloud threat hunting, and runtime forensic collection.

The Wiz Runtime Sensor

Lightweight eBPF built
for cloud

The lightweight, eBPF-based sensor is purpose-built for cloud environments, offering negligible performance impact and a kernel-safe architecture. This design gives security teams deep runtime protection without introducing risk to the workload from the agent or sensor itself.

Easy deployment in any cloud environment

The sensor supports multiple deployment options for each workload, allowing security teams to leverage their existing deployment workflows. Agentless inventory validates that the desired runtime coverage is achieved both today and as the environment evolves.

Detect and block threats in real-time

The sensor blocks sophisticated cloud threats in real time and monitors or prevents suspicious activities such as file integrity changes, image drift, log tampering, network scanning, and malicious IOCs, ensuring critical resources remain secure.

Agentless + runtime sensor = complete visibility

While other security solutions started with and still rely on agents, Wiz takes an agentless-first approach, ensuring complete coverage and near-limitless scale. This is complemented by the Wiz Sensor, which prevents threats and provides deep runtime context wherever needed, giving security teams a comprehensive, unified cloud security solution.

Remove noise with code-to-runtime context

Reduce time spent chasing down alerts. Block vulnerabilities in code. Prioritize critical attack paths in the cloud. Focus on the vulnerabilities validated in runtime with the Runtime Sensor.

Validate vulnerabilities in runtime
Validate vulnerabilities in runtime

Agentless vulnerability scans ensure complete coverage across any cloud environment, while the sensor identifies vulnerabilities active in memory, greatly improving issue prioritization. Correlate back to code to remediate at the root.

Hybrid file integrity monitoring
Hybrid file integrity monitoring

Detect and block breaches early, expose security gaps, and meet compliance requirements with the speed and depth of runtime FIM, combined with the comprehensive coverage of agentless FIM using predefined or custom unified policies.

Realtime detection and automated response
Realtime detection and automated response

Detect and respond in realtime on the host. Create custom threat detection rules and use predefined rules to block complex threats, malware, unwanted behaviors, suspicious activity, malicious processes and more.

Expand cloud detection and response
Expand cloud detection and response

Leverage runtime behavioral baselines to detect anomalies and reduce detection noise. Correlate runtime events with control plane, data, identity, network, and PaaS events. Reduce investigation time with runtime forensic data and respond immediately at the control plane or workload level.

Cloud Threat Hunting and Forensics
Cloud Threat Hunting and Forensics

Collect, retain, and hunt across runtime events. The sensor captures execution data and full process tree information for every protected host, regardless of how short-lived, helping teams proactively identify IOCs and streamline investigations.
