SAN FRANCISCO, April 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RSA CONFERENCE, Skyhawk Security, the originator of Cloud Detection and Response (CDR), announces a revolutionary leap in cloud security with the expansion of its AI-powered Autonomous Purple Team to include custom cloud applications. For the first time, organizations can preemptively and continuously secure custom cloud applications and their cloud infrastructure without agents. This innovation protects against today’s biggest cloud security issue, one exploited in recent attacks including the MOVEit Transfer breach, the XZ Utils backdoor, a Google Cloud metadata exposure via a web application flaw and Log4j and Log4Shell—thus closing the gap between application security and cloud infrastructure monitoring. These attacks caused massive disruptions and shared a common approach—initially compromising all layers of modern cloud applications, application workload and cloud layers. With its latest expansion, the Skyhawk platform will now preemptively analyze and detect application-layer vulnerabilities, evaluate exploit paths across application and infrastructure boundaries and prioritize remediation based on real-time risk context. It will also continuously monitor for threats, including exploits that cross between applications and cloud infrastructure. All without the need for agents and their associated costs and complexity. “Security for custom cloud applications and the infrastructure they use has traditionally been siloed, with agent-based tools that lacked full context and, worse still, only identified problems after they happened, if at all,” said Chen Burshan, CEO of Skyhawk Security. “Even given the ‘smoking gun’ IOC when events do happen, SecOps teams struggle to trace attack paths that begin with an application-layer vulnerability, move laterally through cloud infrastructure and re-enter the application stack. By extending our Autonomous Purple Team into the application layer, we are delivering unified, context-aware threat simulation and detection powered by Skyhawk’s AI, data flow analysis and deep analytics — purpose-built for modern, cloud-native environments.” Skyhawk will demonstrate its Autonomous Purple Team for custom cloud applications at booth 5173 in the North Expo Hall at the RSA Conference, taking place April 28 - May 1, 2025, in San Francisco. Attendees can schedule a private meeting with the Skyhawk team at this link. The average total number of cloud alerts experienced by organizations increased by 388% in 2024, according to recent research. Skyhawk’s platform supercharges the efficiency and effectiveness of SOCs to address this onslaught by: Preemptively identifying potential attack paths using its AI-powered Autonomous Purple Team. It simulates real-world attacks against a company’s unique cloud application and the cloud infrastructure together, as they really operateApplication scanning and data flow analysis to identify potential cross-level business logic flaws and coding errors that create exploitsReal-time observability of cloud apps and infrastructure to understand how threats are unfolding, right nowProviding complete context and interactive CDR; SOCs can immediately identify the root cause of incidents and contact users directly to separate real threats from legitimate activityPre-positioning responses with full context so that when incidents do happen, SOCs can shut the attacks down in seconds, not days or even weeksRisk scoring of alerts based on exploitability and threats to the company’s crown jewels to prioritize SecOps activity and make it manageable Skyhawk delivers the industry’s most comprehensive preemptive cloud detection and response platform through the entire cloud stack to give security teams greater control over their risk profile.

About Skyhawk SecuritySkyhawk Security is the originator of Cloud Threat Detection and Response (CDR), leveraging a multi-layer AI-based approach to identify and stop cloud threats before they become breaches. Skyhawk revolutionizes CDR with its AI-powered Continuous Autonomous Purple Team, enabling security teams to take a preemptive approach to cloud security for the very first time. Recently added Interactive CDR provides an out-of-band verification on cloud activities, incorporating principles of Zero Trust, so security teams can verify cloud events, and act if needed. Led by a team of cyber security and cloud professionals who built the original CSPM category, Skyhawk’s platform evolves cloud security posture management far beyond scanning and static configuration analysis, continuously adapting and improving threat detection so that it is always aligned with cloud architectures. Skyhawk Security is a spin-off of Radware® (NASDAQ:RDWR). Media Contact:  Sherlyn Rijos-Altman  Montner Tech PR  srijos@montner.com
