Start from a neutral baseline and add what matters to you. Criteria are labeled by source — the platform baseline is architecture-neutral; buyer-contributed criteria are shown separately.
This evaluation is stored in your browser only. We cannot see it, and it is not tied to any account. Save it to a link or create an account to keep it across devices — you can export it at any time either way.
Signing up adds sharing with your team, sending this as an RFP to vendors, and private document sharing. Nothing above is taken away, and nothing here is sent anywhere until you choose to.
Strong answers map each pillar to native vs add-on and clarify whether they share one unified data model or are federated point tools with separate consoles and licensing.

Look for an honest description of the hybrid model: agentless for fast breadth/posture, optional runtime sensors for depth/detection. Probe what is lost in agentless-only deployments.
Sources: orca.security · sysdig.com · upwind.io
Evidence-backed answers name runtime signal sources, list concrete response actions, and quantify detection/response latency with customer references rather than marketing claims.

Neutral strengths and gaps for each vendor in this category, drawn from vendors' own public materials — included so the questions above favor no single vendor. Gaps reflect capabilities not emphasized in public materials, not rankings.

No buyer-contributed criteria yet
Verified buyers can suggest criteria (anonymized before pooling).
Strong answers describe a graph/attack-path model with reachability and exploitability context and concrete noise-reduction, not just severity scores. Ask how many findings collapse into how many real risks.
Sources: wiz.io · orca.security
Look for explicit per-cloud and per-workload parity and candid disclosure of gaps (e.g., a newer cloud or serverless with reduced runtime coverage).
Sources: aquasec.com · wiz.io · upwind.io
Prefer answers that show a traced path from a running risk to the line of code/owner, list supported SCM/CI integrations, and distinguish shift-left scanning from true code-to-cloud correlation.
Sources: aquasec.com · wiz.io · upwind.io
Strong answers state whether DSPM and CIEM are native to the same platform, which sensitive-data types and identity providers are covered, and any separate licensing.
Sources: orca.security · sysdig.com · upwind.io
Prefer customer-validated onboarding times, stated scan/freshness intervals, and real false-positive figures over vendor benchmarks. Probe how stale agentless snapshots can get between scans.
Sources: wiz.io · orca.security · sweet.security
Look for both named industry-benchmark mapping and custom-framework support; a vendor limited to a fixed list of pre-built frameworks can't serve customers with internal or unusual compliance requirements.
Strong answers give transparent multi-cloud scaling economics; a vendor whose pricing was quoted only for a single-cloud pilot may surprise the customer with materially higher cost when expanding to additional clouds.
Preventive admission control (blocking bad images before they run) is materially stronger than detect-only scanning that finds problems after they're already in production.
Look for automated or semi-automated drift reconciliation; alert-only drift detection still leaves the manual work of finding and fixing the divergence to the customer's team.
Cloud-native secrets exposure (e.g., a credential sitting in a misconfigured S3 bucket or Lambda environment variable) is a distinct risk from source-code secrets and should be explicitly covered, not assumed to be handled by a separate AppSec tool.
This is a genuine scope boundary that varies significantly by vendor — get an explicit answer rather than assuming API security is bundled.
SSPM is an increasingly expected adjacent capability; a vendor limiting scope purely to infrastructure while ignoring SaaS misconfiguration risk has a real coverage gap for many customers' actual risk profile.
Look for both real automated-response capability and explicit safety guardrails; a platform with powerful containment automation but no safety checks against production outages is itself a risk.
