- Cloud Security Plus monitors AWS and Azure cloud security plus Salesforce and Google Cloud Platform log management — a multi-cloud, multi-SaaS view rather than single-provider native tooling
- Unified log search across providers saves the "which console has this event" problem multi-cloud teams face constantly
- This category overlaps with cloud security posture management (CSPM) but Cloud Security Plus is more log/monitoring-centric than configuration-scanning-centric
What It Does
ManageEngine Cloud Security Plus provides cloud security monitoring for AWS and Azure, Salesforce log management, Google Cloud Platform log management, easy log data search, and insights on user activity and network changes across cloud platforms.
Who It's For
IT/security teams running multi-cloud or multi-SaaS environments who want unified security log visibility rather than checking AWS CloudTrail, Azure Monitor, and GCP Cloud Logging separately.
How It Compares
ManageEngine Cloud Security Plus
Unified log search and security monitoring across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Salesforce, priced accessibly for mid-size teams that want cross-cloud visibility without a full CSPM/CNAPP platform.
Native cloud provider tools (AWS CloudTrail/GuardDuty, Azure Monitor/Defender, GCP Security Command Center)
Free or low-cost and deeply integrated with each respective cloud, but siloed — no unified cross-provider view unless you're single-cloud. The default starting point for single-cloud shops.
Wiz
A leading cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) with agentless, graph-based risk analysis across multi-cloud environments. Considerably more sophisticated (and expensive) than log-centric monitoring — aimed at organizations with mature cloud security programs.
Datadog Cloud SIEM
Cloud security monitoring as part of Datadog's broader observability platform — a natural fit if you're already using Datadog for infrastructure/APM monitoring and want security in the same console.
Bottom Line
- Single-cloud, want free native tooling to start? Use AWS/Azure/GCP's own security tools first.
- Multi-cloud or multi-SaaS, want unified log visibility without CNAPP-level sophistication? Cloud Security Plus.
- Mature cloud security program wanting deep, graph-based risk analysis across multi-cloud? Wiz.
- Already on Datadog for observability? Its Cloud SIEM keeps security in the same platform.
