When the cloud moves fast, security must move first
Blast Security marks the end of reactive cloud security, replacing after-the-fact response with continuous prevention. |
As AI-driven change accelerates risk through IAM, permissions, and automation, Blast delivers a living, preemptive defense fabric that evolves with the cloud - eliminating alert fatigue, reducing operational friction, and shrinking blast radius before threats can spread.

Company's Solutions
Blast Security delivers a Preemptive Cloud Defense platform that prevents cloud risks before they materialize by enforcing native security controls safely and at scale.
Core use cases include:
- Prevent misconfigurations before they reach production: Continuously assess cloud environments and enforce preventive guardrails that stop risky configurations before deployment.
- Reduce IAM and permission-based risk: Prevent over-privileged identities, excessive permissions, and risky trust relationships that enable lateral movement and privilege escalation.
- Safely enforce security policies at scale: Validate changes with context-aware simulation to ensure preventive controls do not break production or disrupt engineering workflows.
- Minimize blast radius and exposure time: By hardening cloud environments as they change, preventing attack paths and exposure windows before threats can spread.
- Turn native cloud controls into a unified defense fabric: Orchestrate and enforce existing controls across AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, and IaC to achieve continuous, prevention-first security by design.
Prominent Case Study
Case Study: Rapyd – Enforcing Preemptive Cloud Defense at Scale
Rapyd is a global FinTech company operating a large, multi-account AWS environment managed through Terraform, with Wiz CSPM and Jira supporting security operations.
As the cloud scaled, the security team faced a growing volume of repetitive CNAPP alerts, long remediation cycles, and guardrails managed by multiple teams without clear ownership.
Temporary exclusions accumulated over time, many of which were never removed, increasing risk and operational debt.
Enforcing new security guardrails required lengthy coordination and approvals, slowing down risk reduction and limiting the team’s ability to harden the environment consistently.
Using Blast Security, Rapyd shifted from alert-driven remediation to preemptive guardrails enforcement.
Blast enabled the team to safely enforce security controls across AWS accounts, introduce a structured approval process for new exclusions, and align security efforts around eliminating repetitive issues rather than reacting to them.
Measured outcomes included:
- Guardrails coverage increased from 15% to 70%
- Mean time to enforce controls reduced from months to days
- 1,120 unused exclusions removed
- 65% reduction in repetitive CNAPP issues
- Significant Blast Radius reduction
