How CNAPP Secures Cloud-Native Workloads—From Code to Runtime

By David Adamson | August 27, 2025
 

Cloud-native applications are built for speed, scale, and flexibility. However, these same qualities make them difficult to secure using traditional methods. That’s because in a cloud-native architecture, workloads are ephemeral, deployments are automated, and infrastructure is defined in code. Security must be able to adapt to this reality.

This is where cloud-native application protection platforms (CNAPPs) come in. CNAPPs unify multiple security capabilities into a single framework designed to secure cloud workloads at every stage—from development through deployment and into runtime. When properly implemented, a CNAPP enables comprehensive and operationally sustainable security.

 

A complete CNAPP includes four core capabilities: cloud security posture management (CSPM), cloud workload protection (CWP), cloud infrastructure entitlement management (CIEM), and cloud detection and response (CDR). Lacework FortiCNAPP brings these together in a unified platform, enabling detection, prevention, and remediation across the application life cycle and different types of telemetry—from infrastructure configurations to runtime signals.

Here’s how you can use CNAPPs to secure your cloud-native workloads from code to runtime, and how Fortinet helps make that process actionable across any environment.

Secure the Code Before It’s Deployed

The first opportunity to secure cloud-native workloads is in the code itself. Vulnerabilities introduced in Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC), container images, or application libraries can easily propagate into production if left unchecked.

Lacework FortiCNAPP integrates directly with CI/CD pipelines to detect risks in code, templates, and images before deployment. It scans for hardcoded secrets, privilege misconfigurations, unapproved base images, and outdated libraries. Developers then receive feedback inside their toolchains, enabling issues to be fixed quickly without slowing down delivery.

For deeper analysis, FortiDevSec adds static and dynamic testing capabilities to identify insecure functions, logic flaws, or injection risks early in the software development life cycle. Together, these tools ensure that security begins before the first deployment, reducing the likelihood of exploitable code entering the cloud.

Continuously Monitor Configurations and Posture

Even well-written code can become a risk if deployed into a misconfigured environment. Publicly exposed storage buckets, overly permissive IAM roles, and disabled logging are all common—and preventable—errors that attackers frequently exploit.

Fortinet addresses this with the CSPM built into FortiCNAPP. CSPM continuously monitors deployed environments for configuration drift, security policy violations, and non-compliant resource changes. Whether your workloads are in AWS, Azure, GCP, or spread across multiple providers, FortiCNAPP provides centralized visibility and remediation guidance.

This real-time posture monitoring supports common compliance frameworks, enabling your security team to respond before an issue can escalate into a breach.

Protect Workloads at Runtime with Combined Signals

Cloud-native workloads don’t sit still. Containers spin up and down in seconds, serverless functions trigger on demand, and microservices interact across distributed layers. Runtime protection must be designed to operate in this dynamic context.

Lacework FortiCNAPP includes CWP features that monitor the runtime behavior of applications, containers, and serverless workloads. It builds a baseline of normal behavior, detects anomalies, and flags potential compromises, such as unexpected process launches, privilege escalation attempts, or lateral movement between containers.

But FortiCNAPP doesn’t stop at host or container telemetry. It also includes integrated CDR capabilities, analyzing Kubernetes and cloud provider audit logs in real time to detect unauthorized access attempts, privilege misuse, or signs of compromise within the control plane itself. This broader visibility enables detection of threats that agent-based tools might miss, without additional operational overhead.

These complementary signals—from both CWP and CDR—are then combined using Fortinet Composite Alerts to correlate signals across runtime agents and cloud audit logs. This produces high-fidelity alerts with enriched context, enabling your team to detect complex intrusions earlier and respond more precisely. The result is deeper detection coverage with fewer false positives.

Enforce Application-Layer Defense Where It Matters Most

While infrastructure is critical, many cloud-native attacks target the application layer—specifically web applications and APIs. Business logic abuse, injection attacks, and credential stuffing attempts often bypass infrastructure-level controls entirely.

FortiWeb and FortiWeb Cloud advanced WAF and API protections for applications are tightly integrated with FortiCNAPP runtime risk models. This creates an end-to-end defense that understands both the traffic coming in and the behavior of the workload it’s targeting.

By linking WAF insights to your workload telemetry, Fortinet enables better decision-making and faster response. For example, if malicious API behavior is detected and correlates with abnormal activity inside a container, your security team can immediately quarantine the affected workload and block access at the edge.

Automate and Orchestrate the Full Security Life Cycle

Securing workloads from code to runtime is complex, but the right automation can significantly reduce that complexity. FortiCNAPP supports policy-based controls, automated remediation, and integration with FortiSOAR to orchestrate workflows across teams.

When a misconfiguration is detected, FortiCNAPP can trigger corrective actions or open a ticket for the relevant team. If suspicious behavior occurs during runtime, it can also alert, isolate, and correlate the event with prior vulnerabilities or exposure points, providing context for both security and DevOps.

This automation is crucial for scaling cloud security, ensuring that security controls can adapt to changing environments without requiring constant manual oversight.

Build Cloud Security That Moves with You

Securing cloud-native workloads isn’t just about protection—it’s about adaptability. Environments shift. Teams move faster. New services are adopted every day. Fortinet’s CNAPP approach is designed to keep pace with development, providing coverage that evolves in tandem with your infrastructure.

By combining IaC scanning, CSPM, workload runtime protection, WAF, and API security into a single platform, FortiCNAPP helps you secure every layer of your cloud-native stack. More importantly, it enables that security to happen continuously and contextually—from the first line of code to the last packet of production traffic.

How Fortinet AI-Driven SecOps Delivers Faster, Smarter SecOps

 

Fortinet SecOps changes that. Built on the Fortinet Security Fabric, Fortinet’s SecOps solution delivers a unified, AI-powered platform that helps security teams detect, investigate, and respond to threats faster and more efficiently—without adding headcount or complexity.

Here’s how it works.

1. Unified visibility and control across the attack surface

One of the biggest challenges in modern SecOps is fragmented visibility. Fortinet eliminates that problem by integrating telemetry across the entire infrastructure—network, endpoints, cloud, email, and more—into a single data lake. This is possible through native integration across Fortinet products and open APIs that seamlessly pull in third-party data sources.

But Fortinet goes beyond visibility. With Fortinet SecOps and FortiRecon continuous threat exposure management (CTEM) capabilities, organizations can actively manage their attack surfaces, identifying, prioritizing, and reducing exposure to risks before they’re exploited. This includes continuous asset discovery, attack surface mapping, threat correlation, and proactive controls that close gaps before they become incidents.

The result is a comprehensive view of assets, users, behaviors, and risks combined with actionable insights and enforcement mechanisms. Teams can triage and hunt with confidence, using consistent context from a single source of truth while also shrinking their attack surface in real time.

2. AI-powered threat detection and intelligence

Fortinet SecOps is fueled by FortiGuard Labs AI and global threat intelligence. With behavior-based analytics, machine learning (ML), and curated threat feeds, the platform automatically detects known and unknown threats, including malware, ransomware, botnets, and lateral movement.

Advanced detection is delivered through:

  • FortiSIEM for real-time event correlation and anomaly detection
  • FortiAnalyzer for security analytics, threat hunting, and compliance
  • FortiEndpoint and FortiEDR for endpoint behavior analysis and automated mitigation
  • FortiNDR for early detection of advanced threats and post-exploit activities
  • FortiDeceptor for early threat discovery and deception-based attacker engagement

By combining static, dynamic, and behavioral analysis, Fortinet reduces false positives and accelerates mean time to detection.

3. Automated, playbook-driven response

Responding to incidents quickly—and consistently—is critical. Fortinet SecOps integrates SOAR capabilities across the broader SOC platform with FortiSOAR and within FortiSIEM and embedded within key products such as FortiEDR and FortiNDR. This layered approach allows organizations to automate key response workflows at multiple levels of the stack.

Security teams can automate routine tasks like enrichment, alert correlation, notification, and device quarantine. Guided playbooks, delivered both as centralized runbooks and embedded “Playbook-as-a-Service” (coming soon), ensure that response is timely, coordinated, and aligned to business risk. Integration with ticketing and ITSM platforms enables closed-loop remediation and accountability, while contextual routing assigns incidents based on severity, confidence, and analyst role.

This distributed orchestration model reduces mean time to respond, eliminates manual overhead, and allows organizations to scale their response capabilities without adding headcount.

4. Analyst-centric experience and custom dashboards

Fortinet doesn’t just build for security infrastructure. It builds for security analysts. With customizable dashboards, intuitive UIs, and dynamic search and drill-down capabilities, Fortinet SecOps makes it easier for tier 1, 2, and 3 analysts to investigate and pivot quickly. Analysts can correlate events with timeline views, visualize attack paths, and track key performance indicators and compliance metrics within a single, analyst-friendly interface.

By making workflows more efficient and context-rich, Fortinet dramatically shortens learning curves while improving analyst retention.

5. Security Fabric integration for seamless action

Fortinet SecOps is not a bolt-on. It’s built into the Fortinet Security Fabric, which means detection and response can trigger real-time enforcement across firewalls, endpoint agents, identity controls, and more.

For example, anomalous behavior detected in FortiEDR can trigger automatic isolation via the FortiGate firewall. Deception triggers from FortiDeceptor can feed high-fidelity indicators of compromise into FortiSIEM for further correlation. FortiSOAR playbooks can reconfigure access policies through FortiNAC or notify external systems for coordinated action. And with FortiNDR, the platform adds high-speed network detection and response that can observe lateral movement in real time and escalate threats into the SOC workflow.

This level of integration across detection, analysis, and enforcement eliminates the gaps and delays common in siloed environments, turning detection into defense and streamlining every step of the response life cycle.

Real-World Outcomes

Organizations using Fortinet SecOps report up to an 80% reduction in false positives, allowing analysts to focus on real threats instead of noise. Response times improve by 30% or more thanks to prebuilt automation, contextual handoffs, and integrated controls.

According to research from Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG), Fortinet customers have also achieved a reduction in mean time to detect from several weeks to less than an hour,a transformational shift that enables faster containment and reduced risk exposure.

Teams benefit from automated compliance reporting aligned to frameworks like NIST, ISO 27001, PCI DSS, and HIPAA, reducing audit overhead. Many organizations also lower costs and complexity by consolidating multiple security tools into a unified SecOps stack.

Beyond the numbers, Fortinet SecOps helps teams move from reactive firefighting to proactive threat hunting, risk reduction, and SOC maturity, empowering them to keep pace with attackers without burning out their analysts.

Fortinet AI-Driven SecOps Powers Resilient Cybersecurity Operations

Cybersecurity teams need more than dashboards and alerts. They need speed. Intelligence. Automation. And a platform that scales with them. Fortinet SecOps delivers all of that in one integrated, AI-driven solution, helping organizations shift from reactive defense to proactive resilience.
