SentinelOne® boosts cloud security with enhanced Wiz Integration

SentinelOne, an autonomous security platform, has announced the integration of Wiz into its cloud security services, reinforcing its commitment to comprehensive cybersecurity. The company has also unveiled a new feature called Singularity Skylight, which facilitates the seamless integration of third-party data into SentinelOne’s Singularity Security DataLake.

According to Ely Kahn, Vice President of Product Management for Cloud Security and AI/ML at SentinelOne, organizations often struggle with fragmented data across various platforms, resulting in an incomplete understanding of security risks. By combining real-time cloud threat detections from SentinelOne with the insights provided by Wiz in a unified security data lake,

customers can expedite the identification and resolution of security issues. This integration not only enables faster and more effective security incident response but also promotes agile innovation in the cloud.

SentinelOne’s Singularity Skylight stands out as a user-friendly tool that simplifies data normalization and ingestion processes. Customers who have both SentinelOne and Wiz can leverage this feature to their advantage. When a runtime threat is detected by SentinelOne on a cloud server or container, Singularity Skylight automatically enriches the threat details with relevant context from Wiz. This context includes information about the specific cloud resource, such as vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and exposed secrets. The enriched data is then made available within the SentinelOne management console.

The combined capabilities of SentinelOne and Wiz offer several benefits to joint customers. Firstly, the integration streamlines analysis and incident response by equipping cloud security practitioners with additional context derived from Wiz Issues on the underlying cloud infrastructure. This enhanced context empowers security teams to make more informed decisions in real-time. Secondly, the integration simplifies threat hunting by allowing security teams to proactively search through real-time cloud workload telemetry, identify misconfigured resources, uncover excessive permissions, and address cloud threats before they cause disruptions. Lastly, the integration supercharges investigations by providing analysts at all levels, from entry-level administrators to advanced threat hunters, with powerful tools to filter, compute, extract new fields, and investigate suspicious and malicious activities in real-time.

Ely Kahn emphasizes that cloud security is becoming increasingly complex, and managing it with fragmented solutions is a challenge. To effectively protect against threats in the constantly evolving landscape, an end-to-end approach is necessary. The enhanced integration between SentinelOne and Wiz enables the delivery of such a comprehensive solution, providing organizations with the means to successfully safeguard their cloud environments.
