This guide explains the growing need for Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) due to increasing cloud complexity, misconfigurations, and lack of visibility across environments. It compares legacy CSPM tools—which focus narrowly on misconfigurations and generate high noise—with modern CSPM solutions that provide contextual risk analysis by correlating vulnerabilities, identities, network exposure, and data sensitivity. The guide highlights key capabilities such as agentless scanning, attack path analysis, identity and data security, and integration into CI/CD pipelines for early risk detection. It also includes a detailed RFP framework to evaluate vendors based on visibility, governance, risk prioritization, and automation capabilities. The key takeaway is that effective CSPM solutions
