- Demo Overview
- AI Generated
Orel Ben Ishay demonstrates Sweet Security’s runtime-focused cloud security platform that “flips the script” by starting with runtime behavior rather than static scanning. The solution detects threats across applications, workloads, and cloud infrastructure with minimal false positives. Key features include AI-generated attack storytelling, unified attack graphs connecting all attack layers, and risk assessment that links vulnerabilities to actual runtime signals. A live demo shows the platform detecting a crypto miner attack within 2.5 minutes, with comprehensive details about the attack path.
- Sweet Security Is A Great Fit For:
Organizations prioritizing runtime security over configuration management. Perfect for development teams building cloud-native applications who need security that works at application speed. Ideal for companies with mature DevOps practices looking to add security without disrupting workflows. Especially valuable for businesses running microservices and containerized applications that need real-time threat detection.
- Sweet Security Key Features
Sweet Security continuously monitors cloud apps for suspicious behavior in real-time. Their platform watches everything from infrastructure to applications as they run, catching threats as they happen. They protect containers, Kubernetes, and serverless functions while securing APIs against targeted attacks. The platform also spots infrastructure misconfigurations and integrates with CI/CD pipelines to catch issues early in development.
