Runecast is an enterprise CNAPP platform which saves your Security and Operations teams time and resources by enabling a proactive approach to ITOM, CSPM, and compliance. It helps you proactively remediate vulnerabilities for continuous compliance, whether on-prem, cloud or containers. By proactively using our agentless scanning in real-time admins discover potential risks and remediation solutions before any issues can develop into a major outage. Runecast’s AI-RAIKA, leverages advanced natural language processing (NLP) capabilities to interpret a vast amount of information to provide automated audits for security compliance standards, vulnerabilities (such as KEVs, CVEs or VMSAs) and technology vendor best practices. The platform has been recognized with Frost & Sullivan's 2023 European New Product Innovation Award in the CNAPP industry for its strong overall performance and commitment to user experience. NAVIGATING YOUR COMPLEXITY Runecast helps teams with a simpler transition to cloud, enabling admins to fully understand their hybrid environments and Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) and Kubernetes Security Posture Management (KSPM). Running securely on-premises, it provides insights into what is happening both in the cloud and on-site. IMMEDIATE VALUE FOR TEAMS As Runecast helps teams to stabilize availability and ensure security compliance, it contributes also to greater ROI for both existing and future investments with AWS, Azure, Kubernetes and VMware. FULLY ON-PREM SECURE Operates fully on-prem to analyze your hybrid-cloud environment, so that your data remains safely on-site. To provide additional security, Runecast features a customizable, transparent rules engine. RUNECAST FOR SECURITY AND COMPLIANCE Vulnerability Management Regular automated scanning, recommendations, remediation, and the ability to set up vulnerability management policies are just some of the requirements many enterprises have. The Runecast platform is constantly updated to detect the latest vulnerabilities for all of the supported technologies. Container Security Runecast scans container images for known vulnerabilities and misconfigurations, and can also detect runtime issues such as exposed ports and running processes. It also provides a public API which can be used in your CI/CD platform to analyze the container images and whether they are vulnerable or not to known vulnerabilities, before deploying them in production. Compliance with Security Standards Runecast offers automated audits against security hardening guidelines and common industry standards like CIS Benchmarks, NIST 800-53, PCI DSS, HIPAA, DISA STIG 6, GDPR, KVKK (Turkey), ISO 27001, BSI IT-Grundschutz, Essential 8 and Cyber Essentials Security Standard. RUNECAST FOR IT OPERATIONS TEAMS Vendor Best Practices for Security Hardening Runecast continuously monitors your complex environment, reporting violations and providing recommendations against Vendor Best Practices. It maintains a database with Best Practices of the latest AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, GCP, VMware and Windows and Linux OS. It analyzes your environment to detect any configuration issues against Vendor Best Practices. This delivers valuable insights to improve the stability and security of your infrastructure. Configuration Vault Tracks your configuration to help you prevent drift. Reports your entire configuration and provides the ability to compare your configurations over time. Hardware Compatibility and Upgrade Stimulations Runecast has automated the process of validating the hardware compliance of hosts and clusters against a selected ESXi version, ensuring compliance with the VMware Compatibility Guide (VCG) and vSAN Hardware Compatibility List (vSAN HCL). The AI-powered platform runs a quick and automated analysis using the latest HCL for your servers, I/O devices, and vSAN controllers. For upgrade planning, admins can see the results of multiple HCL upgrade simulation scenarios within seconds, and the findings are presented in a comprehensive way with details about any non-compatibility and how to resolve it. Validates your hardware, drivers, and firmware against current and upstream releases of ESXi for faster upgrade planning.
