Cloud-native CNAPP with runtime protection
Sweet Security provides a Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) that focuses on runtime protection for cloud workloads, applications, and infrastructure. It uses a lightweight eBPF-based sensor that can be deployed in under five minutes to gain real-time visibility, builds a customer-specific behavioral baseline, and detects deviations by comparing behavior to known attack techniques, while also prioritizing exploitable vulnerabilities and managing non-human identities. The company differentiates itself through its founders’ elite military cyber-operations background, offering practical, real-time threat coverage and actionable attack narratives that reduce false positives and MTTR. Its goal is to scale its platform for large cloud-first customers in banking, insurance, and crypto, expanding its U.S. presence and improving automation and protection in cloud security.
