Frequently asked questions
Do you publish a numeric SecurityCheckli.st rating on this page?
No. This page does not publish a product score. Compare vendors against your requirements until a verified review score exists.
Are product capabilities independently verified?
Unless an evidence block marks a finding as confirmed, treat detailed capability claims as vendor-reported and validate them in your own tenancy or pilot.
Is Wiz a CSPM or CNAPP?
Marketing uses CNAPP-class language that includes posture and more. Verify modules in the quote.
Wiz vs Prisma Cloud?
See the dedicated comparison.
Do startups need Wiz?
Not always. Native CSPM may suffice until multi-cloud scale appears.
What prep is required?
Cloud account inventory in the checklist.
