Increased cloud adoption has introduced new security risks; organizations need to protect invaluable, sensitive data that can be accessed from anywhere. Traditional methods no longer suffice - today’s security operations teams must adopt innovative solutions and streamlined processes to effectively manage the increase in complexity and ensure mission-critical cloud loads are safeguarded.

After all, if your systems or network are compromised, it could have severe implications for your business.

Fortunately, you can take steps to protect your cloud infrastructure at scale. Tines is delighted to partner with Wiz, a cloud-agnostic agentless tool that gives you complete visibility into your cloud footprint and risks. Wiz and Tines combine to form a powerful solution to remediate any cloud risks detected in minutes. Using Tines’ no-code automation platform, you can transform, analyze, and prioritize information from Wiz and handle cloud remediation alerts automatically without needing to engage developers or write a single line of code.

"The combination of Wiz and Tines has allowed us to identify and remediate security risks within our cloud infrastructure. This has significantly improved our visibility, reduced our exposure and been a force multiplier for security at Brex."

Mark Hillick, Head of Security, Brex

How Wiz and Tines work together 

Tines connects data from Wiz’s industry-leading cloud security platform across your entire technology stack to automate prioritization and remediation workflows at speed and scale. Combining these tools allows you to measure your risk, focus on what matters most, and futureproof your applications against new vulnerabilities.

Sample use cases 

  • Vulnerability management

  • Issue remediation

Vulnerability management

Wiz arms Tines with risk insights to quickly analyze and share relevant information in a Slack channel, enabling security analysts to review findings and collaborate on any further action. If needed, Tines automatically opens tickets in Jira containing all of the essential details - simplifying complex processes while enabling informed decision-making.

Issue remediation

Wiz provides immediate visibility into a customer’s cloud inventory and detects anomalies, for example, a critical vulnerability like log4j, that requires the analyst to review the findings in Slack and open a Jira ticket or an Amazon S3 bucket being made public. Then, it passes this information through to Tines to perform the exact remediation steps you want to take automatically - for example, restoring the bucket permissions, notifying the owner, paging an on-call team, or documenting the event in a case management system such as Jira.

Both of these automation workflows are ready to use and customize via the Tines Story Library.
