Why Salt + AWS?

APIs are the lifeblood of cloud-native applications, and AWS is the cloud of choice for most enterprises. Salt Security natively integrates with AWS to provide seamless, scalable protection across your environment:

  • Auto-discover APIs across Lambda, EC2, ELB, API Gateway, and more
  • Enforce API posture policies with built-in misconfiguration and drift detection
  • Detect behavioral anomalies and logic abuse using ML-based analysis
  • Integrate alerts and insights into AWS Security Hub, SIEMs, and DevOps pipelines

Introducing Salt Cloud Connect

Salt Cloud Connect simplifies onboarding and enables rapid time to value. It connects directly to your AWS environments to:

Map and classify APIs by account, service, and region
Monitor sensitive data in motion
Eliminate blind spots from shadow, rogue, or deprecated APIs
Enable policy enforcement and threat detection — without deploying inline proxies
“We connected Salt via Cloud Connect and had full visibility into our APIs in under an hour — no changes to code or traffic flow.”
—Enterprise Financial Services Customer
