SecPod Default Benchmarks

SecPod’s Default Cloud Security rules are based on the best compliance guidelines from major frameworks, including NIST 800-53, CIS Benchmarks, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SOC 2, specifically for AWS and Azure cloud environments.

Developed with industry best practices in mind, this benchmark includes standardized rules that evaluate specific resource configurations and display compliance results directly on the dashboard for enhanced visibility and accessibility.

These rules offer flexible deployment options—they can be enforced globally, across all AWS regions, or regionally, within specific AWS regions, depending on business objectives and regulatory requirements.

The benchmark system scans resources and services against selected compliance standards on a scheduled or on-demand basis. During these scans, it identifies any misconfigurations or compliance issues, marking findings as “Pass” or “Fail” to clearly indicate the compliance status. This approach simplifies vulnerability tracking and supports effective remediation efforts.
