Security testing tools help us to monitor our cloud-native resources for potential vulnerabilities throughout our development lifecycle. By flagging security vulnerabilities early, our teams can react on time to reduce potential damage to our end-users and our business. This post will compare three different Security scanning tools that focus on cloud-native infrastructure and application security, namely.
