Wiz is a cloud security platform utilized by more than 40% of Fortune 100 companies. It identifies and removes critical risks, improving security and agility for businesses. Wiz leverages Artificial Intelligence (AI) to streamline security processes, reducing the time to uncover and solve issues.
One of Wiz’s innovative solutions is its integration with Amazon Bedrock. This allows Wiz to generate guidelines to help customers mitigate risks in their cloud environment quickly. Amazon Bedrock is a cloud-based platform with various foundation models (FMs) from leading AI companies. It offers a single API and capabilities to generate AI applications with security, privacy, and responsible AI.
The integration of Wiz and Amazon Bedrock allows businesses to boost their security and reduce remediation time. This is achieved by using powerful models to generate AI-driven remediation steps. This innovation allows security teams to minimize the time spent on investigating complex risks by 40%.
Wiz scans cloud environments and performs a deep risk assessment across several aspects including network exposures, vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, identities, data, secrets, and malware. It uses the Wiz security graph, backed by Amazon Neptune, to understand interconnected risk factors and surface these as Wiz Issues, helping businesses focus on the most critical risks.
To guide customers on remediating cloud risks, Wiz uses Amazon Bedrock to analyze Wiz Issues’ metadata, generating effective remediation recommendations. This risk context combined with cutting-edge FMs provides enhanced remediation guidance. Customers can directly apply these steps onto platforms such as the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), Terraform, AWS CloudFormation, Pulumi, Go, and Python, or through the cloud environment console.
The comprehensive use of this system in production involves several steps. First, a service running on Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) collects context from an alert to remedy and removes any sensitive data. Another service on Amazon EKS then sends that data to Amazon Bedrock. Amazon Bedrock also features restrictions to block any data from unauthorized services.
Users of the Wiz platform expressed satisfaction with the new AI-driven remediation. One such user, Deputy CISO of Genpact, Rohit Kohli stated that the more quickly they could remedy security risks, the more they could focus on broader strategic initiatives.
In conclusion, the use of generative AI in generating enhanced remediation takes problem-solving and automation to a new level. By tapping into AI models powered by Amazon Bedrock, Wiz helps customers remediate risks quickly, reduces manual efforts, and improves Mean Time to Remediation (MTTR).
