DSPM Cloud Scanner Integration in DataSunrise 12.1

DataSunrise 12.1 adds DSPM integration with an external cloud scanner. The scanner helps assess cloud inventory and security posture. Teams can launch a cloud scan from DSPM, track progress, and collect the generated report. They can also review security findings with remediation details.

For organizations that manage data across cloud accounts, this adds another layer of visibility. Teams can review cloud resources, configuration risks, and scan results without leaving the DSPM workflow.

Why Cloud Scanner Integration Matters

Cloud environments change constantly. New resources appear, permissions shift, services expand across regions, and small configuration gaps can become difficult to track manually.

The DSPM Cloud Scanner integration gives security and data teams a structured way to assess cloud inventory. It also helps them review security posture in the same environment they use for data asset discovery. Instead of treating cloud security findings as a separate manual process, teams can keep the workflow in DSPM. Scan execution, status tracking, report access, and findings review stay closer together.

What the Integration Adds

With DataSunrise 12.1, DSPM can work with an external scanner for cloud inventory and security posture checks. The scanner can return structured findings, affected resources, scan errors, and remediation guidance.

The integration includes:

• Starting a cloud scan from DSPM.
• Processing long-running scans asynchronously.
• Tracking scan status and progress.
• Retrieving and storing the generated report after completion.
• Keeping security findings and scan errors separate.
• Making the raw report available for review or download.
• Supporting a report model designed for AWS, Azure, and GCP structures.

This gives teams more context around cloud assets and security findings. It also preserves access to the original scanner output for troubleshooting.

Security Findings and Remediation Context

The scanner report can group findings by cloud service. Each finding can include the cloud provider, service, check identifier, severity, affected resource, description, and remediation text.

Examples may include public storage access, unrestricted network ports, missing cloud security services, and disabled logging. They can also include weak encryption posture or monitoring misconfigurations. When remediation guidance is available, teams can use it to understand the next step for each finding.

Built for Long-Running Cloud Scans

Cloud account scans can take significant time, especially in larger environments. DataSunrise 12.1 treats each scan as a long-running asynchronous job. Users can start a scan, monitor progress, and return to the results after completion.

Partial errors for specific services, regions, or permissions do not invalidate the entire scan result. DSPM stores scan errors separately from security findings. This helps teams distinguish actual posture findings from areas where the scanner could not collect complete data.

More Cloud Visibility in DSPM

DSPM Cloud Scanner integration expands DataSunrise 12.1 with cloud inventory and posture assessment context. It connects data security work with broader cloud configuration visibility. Teams get another way to identify risks and review remediation guidance from one workflow.
