SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security
An AI-powered CNAPP that protects, not just scans — SentinelOne’s autonomous runtime engine stopping active threats in your cloud workloads, correlated with endpoint and identity.
How it’s rated
Full scoreboard ↓Quick answer
Singularity Cloud Security is SentinelOne's AI-powered CNAPP — the fastest-growing part of the Singularity platform, past $160M in ARR. It unifies the whole cloud-security stack (CSPM for posture, CIEM for entitlements, CWPP for runtime workload protection, plus cloud data and AI security) in one product, and its differentiator is applying SentinelOne's autonomous runtime engine in the cloud: many CNAPPs only scan configuration and tell you what's wrong, but Singularity Cloud actually protects running workloads and containers at runtime, detecting and stopping active threats — not just posture drift. It combines agentless discovery for fast, broad visibility with agent-based runtime defence for depth, so you get both breadth and the autonomous protection SentinelOne is known for, correlated with endpoint and identity on the same platform.

Understand cloud security (CNAPP) before you buy it
Most product pages skip this. We start here — so you buy a capability, not a buzzword.
What is a CNAPP?
A Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform — one product unifying cloud posture, entitlements, workload, data and AI security instead of four disconnected tools.
Singularity adds the difference: autonomous RUNTIME protection, not just config scanning.
Config-scanning CNAPP vs runtime-protecting CNAPP — the honest table
What consolidation actually replaces, dimension by dimension.
| Dimension | Posture-only cloud tools | Runtime CNAPP (Singularity) |
|---|---|---|
| On an attack | Scan says 'misconfigured' | Runtime engine stops it |
| The stack | CSPM + CWPP + CIEM tools | One unified CNAPP |
| The engine | Config scanning only | Autonomous runtime protection |
| Coverage model | Agentless OR agent | Agentless AND agent |
| The endpoint link | Cloud tool can't see endpoints | Cloud + endpoint, one platform |
| The context | Disconnected findings | Correlated attack paths |
| Data & AI | Unmapped | Cloud data + AI security |
| The picture | A siloed cloud console | One Singularity picture |
Agentless discovery gives broad coverage in days; the autonomous agent adds runtime protection — breadth and depth.
The five pieces of the platform
Vendors love diagrams; buyers need to know what they’re actually operating. Here’s the whole platform, demystified.
CSPM
Agentless posture management across AWS, Azure and GCP — finds misconfigurations, compliance drift and exposure before an attacker does.
CIEM
Surfaces over-permissioned cloud identities and toxic entitlement combinations — the excessive IAM that turns one foothold into total compromise.
CWPP + Runtime
The SentinelOne autonomous engine protecting running workloads, containers and Kubernetes at runtime — detecting and stopping active threats, not just flagging config.
Cloud Data & AI Security
Data security posture and AI security for the cloud — securing sensitive data and AI pipelines, the exposure that grew faster than most tools.
Platform Correlation
Cloud risk correlated with endpoint and identity on the same platform — a cloud threat is part of one story, not a siloed cloud console.
One agent on every machine, one console over all of them — modules attach without a second operational world.
Twelve capabilities. Posture, runtime, data & AI.
Singularity Cloud unifies the cloud-security stack — and adds the autonomous runtime protection that actually stops attacks in your workloads.
Cloud Posture Management
Agentless CSPM across AWS, Azure and GCP — misconfigurations, compliance drift and exposure, found early.
Entitlement Management
Surfaces over-permissioned cloud identities and toxic entitlement combinations — the excessive IAM attackers exploit.
Unified Multi-Cloud
AWS, Azure and GCP in one console — end the three-portal juggle and the fragmented compliance view.
Compliance & Reporting
Continuous cloud compliance posture across frameworks — audit-ready across the multi-cloud estate.
Runtime Workload Protection
The autonomous engine protecting running workloads at runtime — detecting and stopping active threats, not just scanning.
Container & K8s Security
Runtime protection and image scanning for containers and Kubernetes — the container attack surface, defended.
Autonomous Response
The SentinelOne autonomy applied in the cloud — threats mitigated at machine speed inside the workload.
Agentless + Agent
Agentless discovery for broad fast visibility AND agent-based runtime depth — breadth and depth, not a choice.
Cloud Data Security
Data security posture for the cloud — find and classify sensitive data across cloud stores.
AI Security Posture
Secures AI models, pipelines and data in the cloud — the attack surface that grew faster than most tools.
Platform Correlation
Cloud risk correlated with endpoint and identity on Singularity — one story, one autonomous engine.
Attack-Path Analysis
Connects cloud findings into real attack paths to your critical assets — the real risk, not a flat list.

Here’s what genuinely sets Singularity Cloud apart from the alternatives.
Runtime protection, not just scanning
The key differentiator: many CNAPPs only scan cloud configuration and hand you a list of what's wrong — posture, but no protection. Singularity Cloud applies SentinelOne's autonomous runtime engine in the cloud, actually detecting and stopping active threats inside running workloads and containers. It's the difference between being told about a risk and having the attack stopped.
One CNAPP, the whole stack
It unifies CSPM (posture), CIEM (entitlements), CWPP (workload protection), and cloud data and AI security in one product — retiring the four-tool stack of disconnected cloud-security point products that don't share context. One console, one policy model, the whole cloud attack surface.
Agentless AND agent-based
Agentless discovery gives fast, broad visibility across the whole cloud estate; the agent adds deep autonomous runtime protection where workloads execute. You get breadth (agentless) and depth (agent) rather than the forced choice many cloud-only tools impose.
The fastest-growing Singularity line
Cloud is where SentinelOne is investing hardest — Cloud ARR has passed $160M and it's the fastest-growing part of the platform. That momentum means active development, not a neglected module, and it's a signal the market is validating the runtime-protection approach.
Cloud risk in the whole picture
Because it's on Singularity, cloud findings correlate with endpoint and identity signals — a cloud misconfiguration, an over-permissioned identity and an endpoint foothold become one connected incident. A cloud-only CNAPP can't see the endpoint; Singularity can, and the autonomous engine is shared across all of it.
The honest scope
Singularity Cloud is a genuine top-tier CNAPP with a real runtime-protection edge. Cloud-only pure-plays like Wiz lead on agentless graph breadth and speed of coverage; Prisma is the broadest. Singularity's differentiators are the autonomous runtime engine and the platform correlation with endpoint and identity. For a decoupled agentless CNAPP, compare the pure-plays — TechBag runs the honest bake-off.

Quick poll — what’s driving your evaluation?
Talk to an advisor“Our old CNAPP scanned config and told us what was wrong — but did nothing when a workload was actually attacked. Singularity's runtime engine stopped a live container threat. Protection, not just posture.”
“Unifying CSPM, CIEM and runtime in one product retired three disconnected cloud tools. One console, one policy — and the findings finally share context.”
“The correlation with endpoint was the win — a cloud misconfig chained with an endpoint foothold showed as one incident. A cloud-only tool would have shown me half of it.”
“Agentless gave us fast coverage across all three clouds; the agent gave us autonomous runtime where it mattered. Both, not a forced choice.”
“It's the same autonomous engine we trust on the endpoint, applied to the cloud. That consistency and the runtime protection sold us.”
“For pure agentless graph breadth, we also looked at Wiz. Singularity won on runtime protection and the platform correlation — do the bake-off.”
“Cloud data and AI-security posture caught sensitive data in a pipeline we hadn't secured. The newer surfaces are real, not marketing.”
“Consumption pricing scales with cloud footprint — model it against your estate. TechBag sized it honestly for us.”

What does posture-only cloud security cost you?
Drag the sliders (count cloud workloads; IT-hour cost as loaded cloud-security rate). Estimates assume ~3 hours per workload per year chasing posture findings a scan-only tool can't act on, with ~65% removed by autonomous runtime protection and unified CNAPP — the avoided-breach value from stopping the runtime attack is the larger, unpriced win. Illustrative.
