Cloud adoption is accelerating across industries, where many organizations now run about half of their workloads in public cloud environments, with most using more than one provider. This trend delivers scalability and flexibility but also creates security complexity. Nearly all companies use at least one public cloud, placing large volumes of sensitive data and core applications outside traditional data centers. As a result, 95% of organizations now consider cloud security a top concern.

The structure of cloud infrastructure means that misconfigurations and human errors are frequent causes of incidents. Gartner predicts that through 2025, over 99% of cloud breaches will come from preventable configuration mistakes rather than provider faults. A staggering 74% of organizations have publicly exposed cloud storage containing sensitive data. As workloads multiply across virtual machines, containers, serverless functions, and SaaS applications, keeping them secure is increasingly difficult. For service providers, this represents a major opportunity to address an urgent and growing customer need.

Why the Demand for Partner-Led Security Services is Growing

Many enterprises lack the in-house expertise or resources to protect complex multicloud environments. Nearly half report they do not have qualified staff for cloud security roles. Cyber incidents in the cloud are also increasing, with more than 80% of companies experiencing a breach in the past year. Human error and limited visibility are frequently cited as key factors.

Continuous compliance monitoring is now a top priority for almost 70% of organizations. Spending on cloud security is rising, with more than half of companies planning to increase budgets to address emerging threats. MSPs, MSSPs, resellers, and distributors can step into this gap by offering managed cloud security services that safeguard client workloads, support compliance goals, and reduce risks.

Saner Cloud as the Foundation for Partner Services

Saner Cloud from SecPod is an AI-powered Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) with integrated Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP) features. It combines cloud security posture management, compliance auditing, identity and entitlement management, vulnerability and patch management, and automated remediation within one platform.

Multi-tenancy is built in, allowing service providers to manage client environments efficiently while maintaining clear separation between accounts.

Capabilities that Create Value for Your Customers

Saner Cloud addresses common cloud security challenges in ways that partners can translate into recurring services with measurable impact.

• Continuous posture management and compliance auditing: Evaluates cloud configurations against NIST, CIS, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and SecPod’s default benchmark. A dashboard displays compliance scores, passed and failed checks, and trends over time, enabling partners to identify and address risks quickly.
• Cloud identity and entitlement management: Detects excessive permissions, misconfigured policies, and unused accounts. Provides context for each flagged item, helping partners guide customers toward least privilege principles that reduce the likelihood of misuse or accidental changes.
• Anomaly detection with AI-driven analysis: Monitors for unusual patterns or changes in configuration and categorizes anomalies by severity. The integrated AI assistant explains issues and offers recommended actions, supporting faster decision-making.
• Rapid remediation and automated patching: Allows partners to correct misconfigurations or deploy missing patches directly from the dashboard. Verification rescans confirm that issues are resolved, shortening exposure time.
• Comprehensive asset visibility and risk prioritization: Inventories all cloud assets and applies machine learning (ML) to rank risks. Focuses attention on the most urgent issues so partners can deliver security improvements with clear, measurable results.

Strategic Advantages for Partners

Saner Cloud equips partners to expand cloud security offerings and operate them at scale without unnecessary complexity.

• Multi-tenant management: Manage all customer environments in one system with secure separation and streamlined context switching.
• Automation for operational efficiency: Automated scanning, remediation, and compliance reporting reduce manual work and free teams to focus on higher-value activities.
• Proactive risk reduction: Support a prevention-first approach by addressing misconfigurations, risky permissions, and vulnerabilities before they become incidents.
• Revenue growth potential: Package services such as compliance-as-a-service, cloud risk assessments, and managed monitoring to create new recurring revenue streams.
