### Securing the Cloud with Cloud Native-Application Protection Platform (CNAPP)
](https://www.g2.com/articles/cloud-native-application-protection-platform-cnapp)
As more companies gravitate to cloud and cloud-native applications, a holistic security solution is crucial for the all-around protection of applications and infrastructure that support it. Companies have managed this through siloed solutions so far, but they are now keen on comprehensive solutions like cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) to establish impermeable cloud environments. This latest addition to the acronym-filled security world aims to be the one-stop solution for cloud security.

[What is the difference between ISO and soc2?](/discussions/what-is-the-difference-between-iso-and-soc2)

What is the difference between ISO and soc2?

I've had it explained to me that ISO is of more interest in Europe and SOC2 is of more interest in the United States (and maybe North America?). Someone once said "ISO is to SOC2 as the metric system is to the imperial system"

Answered: Andy Caird on July 18, 2022

The only difference in this process is who conducts the audit. A recognised ISO 27001-accredited certification body must complete ISO 27001 certification. In contrast, a SOC 2 attestation report can only be performed by a licensed CPA (Certified Public Accountant)

Answered: Sikandar Hayat2 on February 17, 2023

ISO 27001 vs SOC 2 ISO 27001 is an international standard for building an Information Security Management System (ISMS). It’s globally recognized and results in a certificate. SOC 2 is a U.S.-based audit focused on security, availability, confidentiality, processing integrity, and privacy. It results in a report, not a certificate. ISO = broader, global, risk-based framework. SOC 2 = U.S.-focused, customer assurance for SaaS/tech companies.

Answered: Barbara Viteri on December 9, 2025

ISO (like ISO 27001) A global, formal standard for building and maintaining an information security management system (ISMS). Applies to organizations of all types worldwide. Certification is done through an independent auditor. SOC 2 A U.S.-focused compliance framework created by AICPA. Evaluates how a company protects customer data based on 5 Trust Service Criteria (security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, privacy). Provides an attestation report, not a certification. In short: ISO = international security standard SOC 2 = U.S. audit report on how you handle customer data

Question on: Coro Cybersecurity
[What does cybersecurity software do?](/discussions/what-does-cybersecurity-software-do)

What does cybersecurity software do?

There are many things to consider with Cybersecurity software: 1. email filtering 2. user awareness training 3. EDR, XDR, NDR, etc... 4. SIEM/SOAR 5. Backup and recovery 6. Disaster Recovery 7. monitoring and suggesting fixes and hardening of online services 8. etc... Coro for me was a good email filtering, lightweight EDR, and o365/google monitoring program. Does it cover everything, NO, have I come across anyone who covers as much as they do, NO. They are in a great market for small businesses to cover multiple avenues of cybersecurity. You will need more than one tool to fully protect yourself from all that is out there, however, Coro is a great place to start.
