What is DivvyCloud
DivvyCloud is a Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) platform that provides real-time analysis and automation across leading cloud and container technologies. It protects cloud and container environments from misconfigurations, policy violations, threats, and IAM challenges.
DivvyCloud discovers your infrastructure resources across all clouds and distills this information into a normalized database that is used to analyze cloud operations, identify risks, and take action according to user-defined policies and rules—to alert, mitigate, or remediate problems.
