Overview

CloudXray is a cloud-native, agentless workload scanner from Cloudnosys that delivers deep visibility and protection across virtual machines. It identifies malware, OS vulnerabilities (CVEs), and misconfigurations for cloud-hosted Linux, Windows, and Mac instances—all without installing agents or disrupting live environments. CloudXray deploys an orchestrator in one region and dynamically launches scanners across discovered regions via cloud-native orchestration. It supports both Basic protection (misconfiguration detection) and Advanced protection (malware and OS vulnerability scanning), offering rapid deployment and robust cloud workload protection.
