We're a team of about 50 engineers focused primarily on AWS, and we've been using a mix of security tools like GuardDuty, AWS Config, and some custom scripts. Our leadership has requested a unified view of our risk landscape, but we want to avoid overwhelming the team with alerts. We're on the lookout for a Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) that suits our mid-sized cloud infrastructure without feeling too bloated or tailored for larger organizations. Has anyone found a CNAPP that strikes this balance?

If you're considering options, have you tried Imperva? It might fit your needs.
You should definitely look for a CNAPP that provides useful context around IAM, workloads, and cloud configurations without bombarding you with alerts. Personally, I've had good experiences with Orca; it’s agentless and shows actual attack paths clearly. Just make sure the CNAPP highlights relevant risks effectively.
We opted to keep GuardDuty and complemented it with a CNAPP that allowed us to get read-only visibility first. This way, we were able to explore the insights before fully committing. It's definitely worth asking vendors if they provide that option.
We evaluated a few CNAPPs, and what made a difference for us was the one that tied risk scoring to workload exposure instead of just flagging misconfigurations. It really helped us minimize the data overload and focus on real risks.
Many CNAPPs tend to be overly complex. We ended up choosing one that offered clear, actionable insights into our risk profile, and Orca stood out by showing direct links to IAM and workload exposure, which simplified management a lot.
