Let’s face it: The cloud has become the go-to platform for modern infrastructure—and for good reason. Scalability, flexibility, and speed are hard to beat. But as organizations increasingly rely on the cloud to run their critical operations, the threat landscape is evolving just as fast. And attackers? They’re getting smarter, stealthier, and more cloud-savvy by the day.
That’s why monitoring cloud network traffic is no longer optional—it’s essential. The network remains the ultimate source of truth for detecting threats that slip past other controls, especially in today’s multi-cloud and hybrid environments. Whether it’s lateral movement, data exfiltration, or misconfigured access, your network sees it all—if you're watching.
At Corelight, we believe effective cloud security starts with full-spectrum visibility. That’s why we’ve built our platform to work seamlessly across your cloud footprint, whether you’re running in AWS, Azure, GCP, —or all of the above. Through native integrations with packet mirroring services like AWS Traffic Mirroring, Azure Virtual TAP (vTAP), and Google Cloud Network Security Integration, we give you direct access to network traffic without the complexity of re-architecting your cloud to accommodate 3rd party solutions.
These services are easy to configure, scalable, and optimized for each cloud provider. And combining this cloud-native mirroring with Corelight’s unified network visibility gives you unrivaled insight into east-west and north-south traffic with minimal operational overhead.
Today, we’re excited to announce our support for Microsoft’s cloud-native vTAP solution, now in public preview. Corelight has been a long-standing partner in both the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association (MISA) and the Microsoft Active Protections Program (MAPP), and this announcement strengthens our collaboration even further. As a private preview partner for both vTAP and Microsoft Security Copilot, Corelight has provided early feedback to help shape these technologies. Thanks to this collaboration, Corelight Cloud sensors are fully compatible with vTAP from day one, ensuring seamless integration for our customers.
More broadly, we also recognize that not every cloud deployment is one-size-fits-all. That’s why Corelight also integrates with leading third-party packet broker solutions, such as Gigamon, cPacket, Garland, and more, giving customers even more flexibility and control. These platforms offer advanced traffic management capabilities—think filtering, deduplication, and load balancing—so you can route just the right data to your Corelight Sensors across your hybrid cloud network. This not only enhances efficiency but also allows for a consistent tapping experience across all your environments.
In the end, more cloud adoption doesn’t have to mean more blind spots. With Corelight, you can bring the same level of rich network telemetry trusted by some of the most demanding customers to your cloud environments. That means better threat detection, deeper investigations, and better outcomes for your security team.
Cloud threats aren’t slowing down—but neither are we. With Corelight, you’re not just watching your cloud. You’re owning it.
