Unified Cloud, SaaS, and DNS Security Posture Management From a Single Platform

Founded in 2021, CheckRed offers a unified posture management platform aimed at security teams that have accumulated separate tools for cloud infrastructure, SaaS applications, and DNS. The company's stated position is that risk should be understood and prioritized from one console rather than a dozen dashboards. Its customer base spans enterprise security organizations in finance, healthcare, technology, and education, alongside managed service providers overseeing many client environments at once. Leadership includes CEO Pat Clawson, previously chief executive at Terbium Labs and Blancco Technology Group.

The platform connects through agentless, API-based integrations rather than deployed software, reading configuration and identity state directly from AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and Linode, from more than fifty SaaS applications including Microsoft 365, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Okta, and Google Workspace, and from DNS providers such as Cloudflare, Akamai Edge DNS, and Infoblox. Scanners continuously detect misconfigurations, excessive entitlements, exposed workloads, and certificate issues, then prioritize findings to suppress noise and attach step-by-step guided remediation instructions to each alert.

What distinguishes the product is breadth under one roof: roughly ten posture disciplines that vendors usually sell separately, spanning CSPM, SSPM, CNAPP, CIEM, CWPP, KSPM, and DNS posture management, mapped against frameworks including NIST, ISO, HIPAA, GDPR, and PCI-DSS for continuous compliance reporting. A multi-tenant dashboard and consumption-based pricing target the MSP and MSSP channel specifically, letting providers supervise many client tenants without standing up separate deployments per customer.
