Cloud-Native Application Protection Platforms (CNAPPs) offer robust internal visibility, but they often fall short in identifying externally exposed assets and real-world vulnerabilities. This blog explores how CyCognito fills these critical gaps by bringing blackbox asset discovery and dynamic application security testing (DAST) to CNAPP workflows, in partnership with Wiz. Through seedless discovery and over 80,000 active security tests, CyCognito helps uncover hidden risks that internal tools miss, enabling DevSecOps teams to prioritize issues based on actual exploitability. The integration provides seamless data flow between platforms, delivering enriched context and actionable insights that significantly enhance cloud security posture.
