Understanding how your cloud environment evolves is essential for maintaining a strong security posture and operational resilience. In the cloud and the AI era, change is the only constant. Every modification to a resource, from a security group update to a new IAM role, represents a shift in your environment's state.
Tracking these changes over time provides more than just a record. It offers a narrative of your infrastructure’s evolution. When security and DevOps teams can look back at the history of a resource, they gain the context needed to understand the long-term impact of their decisions and the true nature of their risk.
Introducing Wiz Audit History: The Time Machine for Your Environment
We are excited to launch Wiz Audit History. Think of Audit History as a time machine for your cloud environment, and beyond. It provides a continuous trail of every resource configuration change across your multi-cloud footprint, allowing you to investigate security incidents, troubleshoot outages, and maintain compliance evidence with ease.
Beyond resource configuration, it tracks the history of Cloud Configuration Findings and Vulnerability Findings to help you meet audit requirements. Fully integrated with Mika AI, our AI-powered assistant, Audit History enables you to ask insightful questions to immediately pinpoint the specific events and owners behind an incident, accelerating the journey toward AI-driven root cause analysis.
Troubleshooting Outages with Visual Diffs
Service outages are frequently the result of minor configuration errors that are difficult to spot in raw log files. Wiz Audit History provides a timeline view with side-by-side visual diffs, allowing SREs and DevOps engineers to compare the current broken state of a resource against its last known good state. By identifying the exact lines of configuration that changed, teams can reduce the mean time to resolution (MTTR) and restore services with confidence. This removes the guesswork from troubleshooting and replaces it with clear, actionable data.
Leverage Mika AI for Accelerated Incident Investigation
When a security event occurs, every second counts. Wiz Audit History allows SOC teams to perform blast radius analysis by reviewing configuration changes that occurred immediately before or during an event. To make this even faster, you can now leverage Mika AI to investigate these changes using natural language. By asking Mika to summarize configuration changes for a specific resource over a chosen period, analysts can immediately see the "who, what, and when" of an incident. This integration helps correlate configuration drift directly to runtime events, allowing you to see if a specific modification was the root cause of a breach.
Simplified Audit Reporting and Compliance Evidence
Proving compliance to external auditors is often a manual, time-consuming process involving the export of data to external spreadsheets from multiple different tools and across multiple clouds. Wiz Audit History simplifies this by allowing you to generate point-in-time proof for frameworks like SOC2, HIPAA, or PCI-DSS that covers your multi-cloud environment. You can now export comprehensive reports that show the histrorical configuration changes, vulnerability findings, resolution, and configuration findings directly from the Wiz platform. This unified approach ensures that your compliance evidence is always accurate, historical, and ready for review without the need for third-party tools.
Complete Lifecycle Tracking for Vulnerabilities
For vulnerability management teams, being able to report on findings over time is critical. Wiz Audit History tracks the history of vulnerability findings (in Public Preview), including those ingested from external scanners via Wiz UVM. This allows vulnerability managers to provide auditors with a clear record of remediation efforts. By maintaining this history across all environments within a single platform, teams gain a clear view of their long-term vulnerability posture and progress.
