Rubrik allows customers to protect their workloads like VMs, Disks, and SQL instances running on Azure. We have customers who protect a large number of Azure subscriptions through our SaaS product. We offer features like File-Level Recovery to allow customers to make faster recoveries and Storage Tiering to save on storage costs associated with the backups. To support these features, we run compute in the customer’s environment to read the data from Azure Disk snapshots.

Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) aims to automate the identification and remediation of risks across your entire cloud infrastructure. A core requirement of the CSPM framework is the need to enforce a principle of least privilege. There are certain overlaps with Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM) solutions. CIEM is a newer categorization that came after CSPM.

The ongoing growth in the adoption of cloud services poses escalating opportunities and risks in equal measure. The increased capacity and scalability of cloud environment lends itself to an accelerated pace and higher volume of software and application development than ever before. This trend brings into play a huge increase in the number of software components and dependencies that developers use in their code bases.
