With our initial deployment of Upwind Agent Pack, our visibility and telemetry across our public cloud environments has increased not by percents but by multiples. Our program visibility is 3x or 4x what it was previously. Add to that the Agent Pack’s ability to show runtime vulnerabilities and we can target and remediate across our enterprise where it matters most.

Upwind has mastered the hardest part of cloud security: providing the deep context required for accurate remediation. That extends to real time monitoring. The Agentic Pack release takes this even further, using specialized agents to manage investigation and validation at a scale that was previously impossible.
