Technology Engine

What technology is actually running in my cloud?

Shadow IT and forgotten services are everywhere. Let's find yours.

The technology engine discovers the actual runtime stack across your fleet — databases, web servers, frameworks, runtimes, libraries — and flags configurations that don't meet security standards for each technology.

Why this matters

The CMDB says you run PostgreSQL and Nginx.

Reality: three teams run Redis 4 that hit EOL in 2020, one team pinned Node 12 in a legacy Lambda, and a forgotten instance is running an outdated Elasticsearch open on port 9200. Every one of those has known exploits, and none of them are in your asset inventory.

The risk of not knowing

If it is not surfaced today, it is exposed today. Attackers do not wait for your quarterly review — and neither do auditors.

Real-time detection, not periodic audits
How does it actually work?

The mechanism, not the marketing

  1. 1

    Onam probes running workloads through cloud metadata, container image inspection, and process metadata — read-only, no agents.

  2. 2

    The engine identifies 34 technology categories and thousands of individual products, versions, and configurations across your fleet.

  3. 3

    Each detected technology is checked against version-specific security rules covering defaults, hardening, and end-of-life status.

  4. 4

    Findings are joined to the identity, network, and vulnerability graph so an EOL database that is internet-reachable ranks appropriately.

  5. 5

    New technologies and versions are added continuously as they appear in customer environments — so shadow IT is discovered without a rule-writing sprint.

FAQ

Questions we get a lot

CSPM checks cloud-provider configuration — is a bucket public, is an RDS encrypted. Technology Engine goes one layer deeper: given that you run PostgreSQL 12 on that instance, is the version supported, are the defaults hardened, and does it end-of-life next quarter. Together they cover both the cloud and what runs on top of it.
