Cloud Security
Cloud Security
The Cloud Security module of Amygdala XDR® is designed to provide security monitoring and threat detection for cloud environments, specifically Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure. This module is built on top of the Amygdala XDR® platform and leverages its capabilities to provide comprehensive security monitoring and analysis for cloud environments. The Cloud Security module provides visibility into cloud infrastructure, such as virtual machines, storage, and networks, and monitors for security events and threats. It also integrates with cloud provider APIs to collect metadata, such as configuration and usage information, to provide a complete view of the cloud environment.
Amygdala XDR® Agent
The Amygdala XDR® Agent is installed on cloud instances and collects log data and system metrics from the instance. It also performs configuration assessment checks to identify misconfigurations that could lead to security issues.
Amygdala XDR® API
The Amygdala XDR® API is used to communicate between the Amygdala XDR Manager and cloud provider APIs to collect metadata, such as configuration and usage information, from cloud infrastructure.
Amygdala XDR® Manager
The Amygdala XDR® Manager is the central component of the Cloud Security module and is responsible for processing and analyzing log data, system metrics, and metadata collected from cloud infrastructure. The Amygdala XDR® Manager also generates real-time alerts for security events and threats in the cloud environment.
Rule Sets
The Cloud Security module includes pre-defined rule sets that are used to detect security events and threats in the cloud environment. These rule sets are based on best practices and industry standards for cloud security.
Dashboards
The Cloud Security module includes pre-built dashboards that provide a visual representation of security events and threats in the cloud environment. The dashboards can be customized to meet the specific needs of the organization.
