In early 2024, Dynatrace acquired Runecast, an innovative solution in the Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) space. This strategic move brought powerful capabilities to the Dynatrace platform, including Kubernetes Security Posture Management (KSPM), which allows teams to detect misconfigurations and compliance risks in their Kubernetes environments.
Building on this success, Dynatrace continues to evolve its platform to support broader Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) and VMware Security Posture Management (VSPM) use cases. While platform-native Security Posture Management capabilities are on the horizon, you don't have to wait to benefit from these insights. Thanks to the tight integration with Runecast Analyzer, Dynatrace users can already access robust CSPM and VSPM functionality today, allowing them to:
Organizations operating in regulated industries, such as finance, healthcare, and government, must demonstrate ongoing compliance with standards like CIS, PCI-DSS, NIST, DORA, and DISA STIG. With Runecast Analyzer integrated into Dynatrace:
Misconfigurations are one of the leading causes of cloud breaches. CSPM and VSPM help teams:
Security teams often struggle to communicate risk in a way that's actionable for DevOps and platform teams. This integration allows shared visibility through Dashboards, Notebooks, and Workflows.
Modern enterprises operate across AWS, Azure, GCP, and on-premises VMware. Runecast Analyzer supports all these environments, and Dynatrace delivers insights into them together on a single platform, ensuring consistent posture management across the entire stack.
Dynatrace makes it easy to ingest and analyze compliance findings from Runecast Analyzer. Here's a quick overview of the setup process:
As Dynatrace continues to enhance its platform, you can look forward to even more seamless and native capabilities for CSPM and VSPM. In the meantime, the current integration with Runecast Analyzer ensures that your organization can start strengthening its security posture and compliance coverage within the Dynatrace platform today.
