ZEST Security announced its strategic integration with Upwind, giving DevOps and Security teams real-time, runtime powered cloud visibility combined with intelligent, Agentic AI-driven remediation.

Together, ZEST and Upwind bridge the gap between risk identification and efficient remediation and mitigation - streamlining the entire process from end to end.

This integration gives security and DevOps teams the power to:

- Detect cloud threats as they happen

- Trace issues back to their root cause in code

- Automatically generate and apply high-impact resolution paths

Security teams can leverage Upwind for deep, real-time visibility and risk identification, then act quickly and intelligently with ZEST’s Agentic AI-generated resolution paths.

Upwind provides deep, runtime intelligence that gives security teams complete visibility across workloads, applications, identities, data flows, and APIs. By surfacing real-time, actionable insights, Upwind helps security teams cut through the noise, reduce exposure, and detect cloud threats as they happen. ZEST Security integrates seamlessly with Upwind, streamlining the process of taking action on Upwind findings. ZEST analyzes the full range of potential solutions and automatically generates the most efficient and effective resolution paths. Whether that be code-based remediation, high-impact patching, or mitigation using existing security controls and cloud-native services.

The ZEST Security and Upwind integration brings speed, precision, and automation to cloud security, application security, and vulnerability management – eliminating toil and streamlining the journey from visibility to action.

Integration Highlights:

- Deep runtime visibility across workloads, applications, identities, data flows, and APIs.

- Real-time identification of cloud vulnerabilities and risks.

- Agentic AI–generated resolution paths, delivering fully guided remediation and mitigation.

- Security as Code (SaC) through seamless integration with DevOps workflows.

- Automated root cause analysis, tracing risks back to code and generating replacement code.

- Risk mitigation using existing guardrails, controls, and policies to reduce exploitability, severity, and exposure.

Key Benefits:

- Accelerate Time to Remediation: Automatically align risk findings to the most efficient resolution path – reducing MTTR and operational friction.

- Agentic AI for Smarter Automation: Leverage Agentic AI to go beyond automating manual tasks – correlate findings, automate root cause analysis, and generate high-impact resolution paths.

- End-to-End Cloud Security: Identification to Action: Streamline the entire process from real-time risk identification to fully guided remediation and mitigation.

- Holistic Risk Remediation: Achieve the greatest impact on reducing risk exposure by combining code-based remediation, patching, and mitigating controls.
