A CSPM tells you tens of thousands of findings are
open. The graph tells you which dozens of them line up into
a real path from the internet to a database with customer
data.
Cloudanix models your cloud as a typed asset graph and walks
it — subnet by subnet, role by role — to map attack paths
from internet-facing assets to sensitive cloud resources,
confirm reachability, blast radius, and crown-jewel exposure.
Filter any list view by has_attack_path.
The modern CNAPP backlog has three patterns at the bottom of it — and a list-based tool can't see any of them.
Detection is solved. Triage isn't. When everything is flagged at once, most findings never get acted on — and the team's MTTR drifts from days into seasons.
Only a small fraction of cloud security alerts actually touch a sensitive asset. The graph tells you which ones this week — and lets you ignore the rest with confidence.
When teams can't see which Critical is part of an active attack chain, they fix them roughly in the order they arrived. Real adversaries don't.
"S3 bucket is public" is a finding. So is "this
EC2 has an outdated Apache". So is "this IAM role
is over-privileged". Each one is a fragment.
String them together — that is the unit
of security worth fixing. That's the unit a graph lets
you see. And that's why Cloudanix is built graph-first,
not finding-first.
The same graph that powers your inventory powers your attack-path queries. One data plane. Sub-second on million-node graphs.
Every asset is a node. Every "this EC2 is in this subnet, this subnet has this route table, this route table has an internet gateway" relationship is a typed edge. Inspired by proven open-source graph models — but tuned for the scale and speed of a CNAPP.
Starting from a public-facing asset, the platform walks the graph one hop at a time, following only the network-meaningful relationships — not generic parent-child noise. 4 hops by default, configurable. Cycle-safe by construction.
has_attack_path=true is a column you can use in
any list view, dashboard, alert rule, or
report — the same way you'd filter by severity or status.
Not a separate "attack path" feature buried in a sub-menu.
has_attack_path is just a column.
Combine it with severity, compliance scope, environment, tag — whatever you already filter by — in the same Dynamic Query Builder.
resource_type IN (RDS, SQL DB, CosmosDB) AND has_attack_path = true AND public_facing = true
The graph confirms the path from public IP → subnet → DB endpoint, not just "this RDS has a public flag set."
identity = arn:aws:iam::***:role/ec2-task → graph.outbound_reachable_assets → 47 assets, 12 with PII tag
From an IAM identity, walk every STS-assumable role and permission grant — see what's in reach if it's compromised.
has_attack_path = true AND first_seen_with_path >= now()-7d
Funnel chart triggers when the "exposed AND misconfigured" subset grows — catches the misconfig drift before the attacker does.
dns_record.has_takeover_finding = true AND has_attack_path = true → sort by blast_radius desc
DNS-based exposure is a first-class attack-path source — most graph CNAPPs only think about network paths.
Most graph-based CNAPPs bolt on a separate graph tool — it's a marketing feature, not the foundation. Cloudanix is graph-first end to end: the same store powers your inventory, your filters, and your attack-path traversal.
We only traverse network-meaningful edges (PART_OF_SUBNET, MEMBER_OF_VPC, ATTACHED_TO). Most graph CNAPPs surface nonsense paths through generic RESOURCE parent-child edges.
The traversal tracks where it's been at every hop — no infinite loops, no duplicate paths. A configurable depth cap stops runaway queries cold.
Each node in the returned path carries its full security posture (failure counts, severities, finding IDs). You see risk along the chain, not just at the endpoint.
Graph nodes & relationships live on the same partitioned store as your inventory and findings — so attack-path queries don't need a second system, a second ETL, or a second bill.
AWS, Azure, GCP edges normalize into the same edge taxonomy. A "public-facing" finding in Azure walks the same recursive traversal as one in AWS.
Where most CNAPPs make attack-path a separate UI, we expose it as a column you can combine with severity, tags, compliance, time-window — anywhere you filter.
One platform · One graph
Attack Path is one query against the same graph that powers CSPM, CIEM, your asset inventory, your blast-radius calculator, and the agentic remediation roadmap. One ELT pipeline, one schema, one data plane.
A typed asset graph that walks your cloud topology to surface real internet-to-crown-jewel chains.
has_attack_path filterMisconfiguration detection across 300+ resource types, with compliance mapping out of the box.
Identity-side of the graph. STS assume-role chains, blast-radius from any role, dormant identities.
What Our Users Are Saying
Cloudanix is trusted by security leaders worldwide to deliver proactive, reliable, and cutting-edge cloud security.
One day, I changed the password of a root account, and my CTO called me within less than a minute to confirm if I did so. I was not expecting a reaction this quick. He told me Cloudanix alerted him of this password change and that he wanted to confirm as it was a critical security notification. I couldn't believe it!
Compliance is one way of staying secure, but what I want is the ability to go deeper and attain 'true security.' Cloudanix provides us the capability to do so.
Cloudanix is building for the future of the cloud, which makes the product all the more desirable.
Cloudanix gave us the visibility we were missing. Being able to move from permanent access to a robust Just-In-Time (JIT) workflow has fundamentally changed our security posture without slowing down our engineering velocity.
We are excited to leverage Cloudanix's comprehensive multi-cloud DevSecOps solution to secure our production workloads on AWS. Cloudanix has demonstrated that it can solve many challenges that DevSecOps teams face while continually adding new features such as SOC2 compliance and drift detection.
Managing third-party partner access was once a major concern for our security posture. With Cloudanix JIT Cloud, we've effectively achieved zero third-party risk. We can now grant access confidently, knowing that it is temporary, audited, and automatically revoked, resulting in a 100% reduction in our privileged access exposure.
The snooze feature and responsible alerts have helped us save time and prioritize what to tackle first.
Implementing Cloudanix JIT internally allowed us to practice what we preach. By eliminating permanent access to our own clouds and databases, we've neutralized the risk of standing privileges, ensuring our own 'keys to the kingdom' are never left exposed.
The problem with permissions is a lot of times, the gaps are left open due to oversights from inside the organization itself. With Cloudanix's CIEM, we get a complete view of user permissions and access. This enables us to update the permissions, reducing the attack surface.
In the world of Fintech, trust is our currency. Cloudanix provided the frictionless visibility we needed to secure our EKS workloads across AWS, ensuring we stay audit-ready for SOC2 and GDPR without slowing down our engineering velocity.
