Zscaler Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) vs. Cortex Cloud

Zscaler Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) provides organizations with a comprehensive way to manage, monitor, and remediate security risks related to sensitive data in cloud environments. Designed to empower security and compliance teams, Zscaler DSPM automatically discovers sensitive data, evaluates its posture, and enforces robust protection policies to ensure compliance and reduce the risk of data breaches. Key Use Cases: • Automatically discover and classify sensitive data across cloud environments. • Identify misconfigurations and security gaps related to data storage or usage.

Cortex Cloud by Palo Alto Networks, the next version of Prisma Cloud, understands a unified security approach is essential for effectively addressing AppSec, CloudSec, and SecOps. Connecting cloud security and SOC workflows enables teams to achieve holistic visibility, trace risk across the lifecycle, and correlate real-time threat activity with development and runtime contexts. Cortex Cloud is a unified platform built on three core pillars: data integration, AI-driven intelligence, and automation.
