Qualys' TotalCloud CNAPP: Strengthening Cloud Security for Thousands of Global Enterprises
Qualys, a leading name in vulnerability and compliance management, has once again proven its commitment to delivering cutting-edge risk-driven cloud security. The company's TotalCloud CNAPP (Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform) has been recognised as an Overall Leader in the 2025 KuppingerCole Leadership Compass for Cloud-Native Application Protection Platforms (CNAPP).
TotalCloud CNAPP empowers security teams to unify visibility and control across hybrid, multi-cloud, and container environments. It achieves this through frictionless, enterprise-scale automation, helping teams surface real risks and act fast, whether it's a cloud misconfiguration, a vulnerable container image, or a hidden privilege escalation risk in a Kubernetes cluster.
The platform's robust capabilities are backed by extensive use of Machine Learning (ML) and GenAI. It detects and ranks risks, suggests remediations, and even automates the remediation of key misconfigurations and vulnerabilities with over 300+ playbooks.
Qualys' TotalCloud CNAPP is built for hybrid workloads across Virtual Machines (VMs), containers, and serverless functions. It spans cloud-native environments including AWS, Azure, GCP, and private clouds, and caters to multiple security and IT stakeholders. The platform offers access to every single use case across Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM), Kubernetes & Containers, Cloud Workload Protection (CWP), Cloud Workflow Automation (CWA), and Cloud Disaster Recovery (CDR).
The KuppingerCole's recognition of Qualys as a CNAPP leader is based on a comprehensive evaluation of functional capabilities, innovation, market leadership, and customer trust. This recognition is a testament to Qualys' long history in vulnerability and compliance management and its dedication to delivering trusted, cutting-edge risk-driven cloud security.
Qualys' TotalCloud CNAPP includes predefined templates to audit posture against a broad range of regulations such as PCI-DSS, HIPAA, EU NIS2, DORA, and FedRAMP.
