Announcing IONIX + Wiz: Bridging the Gap Between Security Validation and Cloud Security

We are thrilled to announce that IONIX has joined the Wiz Integration Network (WIN) Platform, strengthening our commitment to delivering exceptional security solutions to our customers. This integration brings together Wiz’s industry-leading cloud security platform with IONIX’s Cloud Exposure Validator, creating a powerful integration that addresses one of the most pressing challenges in cloud security today: distinguishing between potential cloud issues and actual exploitable risks.

As part of the WIN program, IONIX customers will benefit from a seamless, certified integration that extends the value of both platforms. This collaboration represents a significant step forward in our mission to help security teams cut through the noise and focus on what truly matters in the cloud—validated security exposures that present real risk to your organization.

Eliminate Guesswork and Focus on What Matters: The Power of Validated Cloud Exposure Assessment

In today’s complex cloud environments, security teams are overwhelmed with alerts and findings. Many of these identified issues remain theoretical—they may or may not be exploitable in your specific environment. This uncertainty forces security teams to either address everything (an impossible task) or make educated guesses about what to prioritize.

The IONIX Cloud Exposure Validator integration with Wiz eliminates this guesswork by:

• Automating Threat Analysis: AI-driven technology replicates human analyst decisions
• Validating the outside-in exploitability of Issues, vulnerabilities and misconfigurations identified by Wiz
• Confirming which attack paths are genuinely accessible to attackers
• Demonstrating real business impact through proof-based validation rather than theoretical scoring

How It Works

The Wiz-IONIX integration transforms theoretical cloud risks into validated risks through an automated process spanning the entire cloud infrastructure. IONIX reclassifies Wiz findings based on real-world exposure and confirmed exploitability, ensuring security teams prioritize and address risks that are accessible.

Real-World Examples

1. Critical vulnerability in context: A critical vulnerability detected by Wiz in a containerized application with a CVSS score of 9.8 was downgraded after IONIX’s validation determined it wasn’t exploitable due to network segmentation and other compensating controls.
2. Attack path validation: A potential attack path to sensitive data identified by Wiz was escalated to high risk after IONIX’s validation confirmed it was exploitable, illustrating how even minor misconfigurations can enable unauthorized access to critical assets.

Key Benefits

1. Automated Threat Analysis

Our AI-driven technology replicates and scales the decision-making process of human threat analysts, continuously validating Wiz CNAPP alerts across environments with minimal manual intervention. This automated analysis ensures nothing falls through the cracks while dramatically reducing the need for human review of low-risk findings.

2. Exploitability Testing

The integration incorporates real-time threat intelligence, exposure context, and attacker-point-of-view analysis with non-intrusive exploit testing to determine whether exposures can be actively exploited. This moves security beyond theoretical vulnerabilities to focus on confirmed exploitable weaknesses.

3. Cross-Environment Visibility

IONIX’s Cloud Exposure Validator breaks down traditional silos by delivering a unified view of external exposures across all cloud, on-premises, and 3rd party dependency environments. This comprehensive visibility, combined with Wiz’s deep cloud insights, ensures no vulnerabilities escape detection and validation.

4. Operational Efficiency & MTTR Reduction

The integration enables security teams to allocate time and resources more effectively by reducing noise, thereby accelerating remediation workflows and strengthening overall security posture. This focused approach dramatically reduces Mean Time To Remediate (MTTR) critical vulnerabilities by as much as 80%.

5. Comprehensive Attack Path Validation

The integration doesn’t just identify potential attack paths—it actively validates whether those paths are exploitable, demonstrating the true business impact of complex attack chains and prioritizing remediation efforts accordingly.

“By integrating with Wiz, we are able to reduce the noise for cloud security teams,” said Matt MacKinnon, VP of Strategic Alliances, IONIX.  “By prioritizing external exposures and exploitable vulnerabilities, we allow cloud security teams to focus on true exposures and faster remediation of the issues with the largest impact”

“As an open security platform, we’re happy to welcome IONIX to the Wiz Integration Network for the benefit of our mutual customers. This partnership combines IONIX’s exploitability validation with Wiz’s deep cloud context to help security teams focus on what matters most real, validated risk. By cutting through the noise and surfacing truly exploitable issues, we’re empowering customers to drive faster, more effective remediation”

Conclusion

As organizations continue their cloud journey, the ability to accurately assess and prioritize security risks becomes increasingly crucial. The IONIX Cloud Exposure Validator integration with Wiz represents a significant step forward in cloud security, enabling organizations to implement CTEM principles effectively and focus their resources on addressing the threats that matter most.

By bridging the gap between traditional vulnerability management and modern threat exposure validation, IONIX is helping organizations build more resilient cloud security programs that can adapt to evolving threats while maintaining operational efficiency.
