Uptycs Expands CNAPP Coverage to IBM Cloud — Delivering the Industry’s First Unified Security Platform for IBM Environments

Lexington, MA – October 28, 2025 — Uptycs, the leading unified cloud and workload security platform, today announced expanded Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) coverage for IBM Cloud. With this release, Uptycs becomes the first and only provider to offer a unified security solution that covers workloads, configurations, identities, and Kubernetes environments across IBM’s unique infrastructure stack.

This update introduces full CNAPP functionality to IBM Cloud environments - including Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP), Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM), and Kubernetes Security Posture Management (KSPM), within a single, integrated platform.

Built on a foundation of deep telemetry, risk-based prioritization, and cross-cloud consistency, Uptycs now empowers IBM Cloud customers to continuously discover, assess, and remediate threats, with the same efficiency and depth already trusted by enterprises running on AWS, Azure, and GCP.

“With our CNAPP platform now extended to IBM Cloud, we’re expanding our vision of unified, continuous exposure management across every enterprise cloud environment,” said Ganesh Pai, Founder and CEO of Uptycs. “IBM customers can now gain the same real-time visibility, threat detection, and proactive risk reduction that our AWS users have trusted for years - with unmatched coverage for IBM’s unique infrastructure stack.”

Industry-First Coverage for IBM Workloads

Uptycs’ CWPP offering for IBM Cloud is the only solution supporting all major IBM operating system variants, including AIX, LinuxOne, zLinux, and other IBM-specific environments. This level of cross-OS compatibility ensures that enterprises running mission-critical workloads on IBM Cloud can now enjoy the same continuous visibility and protection as those running in other public cloud environments.

Uptycs’ leadership in Linux security telemetry - as the #1 Solution in the Linux EDR telemetry project - extends naturally to IBM’s Linux variants, providing deep, actionable insight into workload behaviors, vulnerabilities, and runtime threats.

Comprehensive CNAPP, Delivered Through a Unified Platform

The Uptycs CNAPP solution integrates all four core pillars of cloud-native security:

  • CWPP: Protection for workloads across VMs, containers, and serverless environments.

  • CSPM: Continuous assessment and remediation of IBM Cloud misconfigurations.

  • CIEM: Intelligent governance of cloud identities and permissions.

  • KSPM: End-to-end visibility into Kubernetes configurations and runtime risks.

This holistic approach enables IBM Cloud users to reduce their threat exposure continuously, prioritize risk based on context, and streamline compliance across hybrid and multicloud deployments.

Cross-Cloud Consistency and Unified Insights

Enterprises leveraging both IBM Cloud and AWS, Azure, GCP can now standardize their exposure management programs through Uptycs’ single platform. The shared data model and unified telemetry enable consistent visibility, investigation, and response workflows across clouds - helping reduce tool sprawl and operational friction.
