SaltStack innovation delivers real security and compliance for inherently complex modern infrastructure through industry-leading automation."

SaltStack SecOps scans an organization's infrastructure in real-time to determine non-compliance with policies including CIS Benchmarks, and then automates remediation of any discovered vulnerability or misconfiguration. It leverages SaltStack's event-driven automation to manage and secure any data center infrastructure including public and private cloud infrastructure, network devices, any operating system, Kubernetes or Docker container environments, and more. SaltStack intelligent automation makes self-healing, continuously compliant infrastructure possible.
