An AI-powered solution that accelerates your cloud migration and modernization journey on AWS environments
Accelerate cloud adoption with ASC
As businesses accelerate cloud adoption to drive innovation, they face challenges such as security and compliance, limited visibility, complex regulations and resource constraints—often leading to misconfigurations and policy drift.
To address these issues, IBM and AWS developed Autonomous Security for Cloud (ASC), powered by AWS Bedrock AI. This solution automates and streamlines security and compliance, helping organizations reduce risk and maintain control.
ASC enables faster, more confident cloud adoption by ensuring strong security from the start while minimizing manual effort. Key benefits include automated deployment, continuous monitoring, AI-driven compliance and autonomous remediation—resulting in lower costs, reduced breach risk and simplified operations.
Accelerate your cloud journey with confidence using Autonomous Security for Cloud.
Employs AI to meticulously tailor the AWS environment, ensuring it aligns perfectly with customer-specific internal policies. This approach guarantees that every deployment is compliant from the start, significantly reducing the need for manual checks and streamlining the entire deployment process. It enhances efficiency and security, making cloud adoption smoother and more reliable.
Uses a constantly evolving AI model to ensure compliance with the latest standards. This dynamic system automatically adjusts to regulatory changes, maintaining alignment with both current and future regulations. It provides peace of mind by ensuring compliance, reducing the risk of non-compliance penalties, and enhancing operational agility in the regulatory landscape.
Using AI for detecting and responding to security threats across the network with precision. The AI model, trained on diverse threat data, identifies potential risks, executing both automatic and semi-automatic responses to mitigate threats swiftly. This approach minimizes risk and strengthens the security framework, keeping the cloud environment safe and resilient.
How ASC elevates cloud posture beyond traditional CSPM
- Tailored compliance scope
- Autonomous enforcement
- Dynamic compliance adjustments
From static standards to tailored compliance: A smarter approach with ASC
ASC analyzes each client’s unique regulatory and policy documentation to infer a fully tailored compliance framework that aligns precisely with their specific business requirements.
Traditional CSPM tools evaluate workloads against fixed industry standards, like PCI.
From reactive alerts to autonomous control
ASC’s gen AI-driven capabilities autonomously deploy AWS controls for client workloads based on a tailored framework.
CSPM tools typically rely on reactive alerts for configurations issues, requiring manual intervention.
Continuous compliance in motion: ASC versus static CSPM packs
ASC continuously processes documentation on evolving standards and client policies, identifies impacted workloads and updates the corresponding AWS security configurations.
CSPM compliance packs require manual reference.
