Cyscale CNAPP vs Uptycs CNAPP

Cyscale CNAPP is a web platform that combines cloud posture, vulnerability, identity, workload, data, AI, and compliance context in a remediation workflow. It prioritizes risks using factors including exposure, exploitability, identity reachability, affected workloads, sensitive data access, compliance impact, and business context. Supported environments include AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, and Kubernetes. Most cloud onboarding uses secure provider APIs without agents, while Kubernetes visibility relies on a Cyscale agent for in-cluster collection. Identity and source-control integrations include Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, Okta, GitHub, and GitLab. Controls map to ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, NIST, CIS Benchmarks, NIS 2, and DORA, with custom controls supported. Cyscale says it is ISO 27001-certified, hosts platform data on AWS, and accesses customer platform data only when support requires it and the customer explicitly permits access. Pro costs $850 a month billed annually for up to 1,000 assets and 10 connectors. Scale costs $2,000 a month billed annually for up to 5,000 assets and 50 connectors. A free trial is available, but there is no free plan.

Uptycs CNAPP provides risk visibility, protection, and prevention for hybrid cloud workloads from build time through runtime. It combines continuous workload scanning, agentless scans, and eBPF runtime insights to catalog software across assets. Workload risk scores connect attack paths and runtime threats with context such as committed code. Build-time scanning covers AMIs, images, infrastructure as code, and code repositories, including alerts for third-party dependency vulnerabilities. Uptycs says runtime defenses can stop threats such as cryptominers and reverse shells in real time, with customized FIM and YARA policies. Investigations can draw on Attack Path, Ask Uptycs, Unified Threat Hunting, Juno AI Analyst, and historical or real-time queries. Listed out-of-the-box compliance reports cover SOC 2, CIS, PCI DSS, HITRUST, NIST, DISA, ISO, and FedRAMP. It supports AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Pricing starts at $36 a year for Discover — Workload, equivalent to $3.00/month billed annually, but the minimum order is $12K per year. Workload units support up to 8 processing cores; historical raw telemetry retention is 7 days by default.
