Cy5 Cloud-Native Vulnerability Management vs Cyscale CSPM

Cy5 Cloud-Native Vulnerability Management scans containers, serverless workloads, and cloud infrastructure for vulnerabilities through the ion platform. It provides visibility across AWS, Azure, and GCP and connects through read-only cloud roles or service accounts without agents or code changes. The service monitors AWS CloudTrail, Azure Activity Logs, and GCP Audit Logs in real time, and describes continuous asset discovery and behavior-based scanning. It automatically generates software bills of materials and tracks dependencies. Vulnerabilities are scored using CVSS and environmental factors; Cy5 says ion narrows 8,000 CVEs to the 5% it identifies as exploitable in the environment. It can scan publicly hosted container images from Docker Hub and Amazon ECR, and supports GitHub Actions integration with policy-as-code validation before deployment. Reporting covers ISO 27001, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS, with proactive support for remediation guidance and compliance reporting. Cy5 describes ion as built for Indian fintechs and telecoms. A free plan and free trial are listed, while pricing is on request. AI-powered remediation is described as coming soon.
