Saltware announced on the 19th that it will expand its security business covering both cloud and AI through a partnership with Wiz. Based on this collaboration, Saltware will fully launch an end-to-end security business spanning cloud and AI environments.
Wiz is a company that provides an integrated cloud and AI security platform based on Google Cloud. Its platform connects everything from the code stage to cloud infrastructure and runtime environments, helping organizations centrally identify risks across infrastructure, AI models, data, IAM, and workloads. It also supports automation of threat response and risk mitigation.
Saltware has capabilities to support the full lifecycle of public, private, and hybrid clouds, spanning consulting, build, and operations. It has also carried out IGA projects for major domestic conglomerates and is recognized for its expertise in identity security. The partnership combines the strengths of both companies.
Through this collaboration, Saltware will broaden its security scope beyond IGA, its existing core area, to cover source code, cloud infrastructure, AI and data, workloads, and runtime protection.
The two companies will use the Wiz platform to identify risks in cloud environments in an integrated way. The risks to be identified include vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, excessive access privileges, and exposure of sensitive data. They also plan to analyze Attack Path in advance, which refers to potential attack routes created by the interconnection of individual risk factors, with the goal of establishing a proactive threat response system.
As the adoption of generative AI and AI agents has recently spread, the complexity of connections among models, data, applications, and cloud infrastructure has increased sharply. In response, Saltware plans to strengthen its capability to embed security throughout the entire cloud and AI system lifecycle. The application stages are planning and design, buildout, operations, and maintenance.
Saltware CEO Lee Jeong-geun said that as the use of generative AI and AI agents expands, management of users and access privileges is necessary. He also explained that ongoing identification and control of risks across data, cloud assets, and workloads are required.
Accordingly, the CEO said Saltware aims to combine its expertise in cloud buildout, operations, and identity security with Wiz's advanced security technology to support a consistent and robust security framework across the entire customer system lifecycle, from design to operations.
Saltware continues to expand its business portfolio with AI hardware infrastructure such as GPU servers, multi and hybrid cloud, AI data platforms, AI agent builders, and in-house AI solutions, pursuing an AI Full Stack approach. Leveraging its collaboration with Wiz, the company plans to establish an end-to-end AI business framework encompassing infrastructure, data, applications, and security.
