Cybersecurity outfit SentinelOne plans to buy app protection expert PingSafe in a move it thinks will dominate cloud security by putting its tech under the bonnet of SentinelOne’s Singularity Platform.
SentinelOne’s chief product and technology officer Ric Smith said that with PingSafe on board, SentinelOne will change cloud security by mixing top-notch cloud workload protection, AI and analytics skills with a modern and complete cloud-native application protection platform.
Smith said this new way of cloud security will get rid of the need for firms to “deal with the hassle of multiple point solutions, sort out and investigate, or move data between different data piles.”
“Instead, clients can fully manage their whole attack area from a single platform that – unlike old CNAPPs and stand-alone providers – gives the full picture, real-time chat and analytics needed to link, spot and stop multi-stage attacks in a simple, automatic way,” Smith said.
