Salt Cloud Connect for AWS empowers organizations to move fast and stay secure, accelerating cloud projects by removing traditional complexity from API security. Teams no longer need to wait for traffic to analyze or deploy agents across environments; instead, they can act immediately on insights and reduce risk across their AWS infrastructure.
