Uptycs CNAPP

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.
