Safeguard.sh vs Wiz
Zero CVE Components + Supply Chain vs Cloud Posture
Wiz provides cloud security posture management (CSPM) for runtime scanning. Safeguard.sh starts you clean with 6,000+ zero CVE images and packages, then delivers software supply chain security with autonomous remediation. See why you need BOTH—and why Safeguard.sh covers supply chain threats Wiz can't address.
Feature-by-Feature Comparison
Software supply chain security vs cloud security posture management
Zero CVE Components
3,000+ zero CVE images + 3,000+ Gold packages—certified before deployment
None—runtime scanning only, no pre-vetted components
Primary Focus
Software supply chain security—code, dependencies, containers, AI models, SBOM, TPRM
Cloud security posture—misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, compliance across cloud workloads
Dependency Analysis
100-level dependency depth with reachability analysis—deep supply chain tracing
Runtime vulnerability scanning—no deep dependency chain analysis
Remediation Approach
Autonomous Auto-Fix for supply chain vulnerabilities—self-healing code and containers
Cloud misconfiguration remediation—not focused on software supply chain fixing
SBOM Management
Complete SBOM lifecycle with EO 14028 attestation and continuous monitoring
Runtime SBOM discovery—limited lifecycle management and attestation
Third-Party Risk
Dedicated TPRM with vendor SBOM validation—protects against supplier threats
Cloud vendor security assessment—no software supplier SBOM validation
Cloud Security Posture
Not a CSPM tool—focused on software supply chain security
Comprehensive CSPM across AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI, Alibaba—cloud misconfiguration detection
Container Security
Supply chain focused: dependency analysis, layer-by-layer scanning, autonomous fixing
Runtime focused: workload protection, network security, runtime anomaly detection
Development Integration
Deep CI/CD integration, Git hooks, IDE plugins—shift-left supply chain security
Runtime cloud integration—limited development-time supply chain security
Federal Compliance
FedRAMP HIGH, IL7, SOC 2 Type II ready—compliance-ready architecture designed for federal software supply chain requirements
SOC 2, ISO 27001—strong cloud security compliance but not IL7 or FedRAMP HIGH architecture
Cost Model
Value-based on supply chain outcomes (vulnerabilities fixed, compliance achieved)
Workload-based pricing—costs scale with cloud resource usage
Why You Need Both Solutions
Complementary Security Layers
Wiz protects cloud infrastructure posture (misconfigurations, IAM, network). Safeguard.sh protects software supply chain (dependencies, SBOM, third-party risk). You need both—Wiz for WHERE your software runs, Safeguard.sh for WHAT's IN your software.
Supply Chain vs Cloud Posture
Wiz excels at cloud security posture management—finding misconfigurations and runtime threats. Safeguard.sh excels at software supply chain security—tracing 100-level dependencies, validating vendor SBOMs, and autonomous vulnerability fixing.
Development vs Runtime Focus
Safeguard.sh protects at development time—preventing vulnerabilities before deployment with CI/CD integration. Wiz protects at runtime—detecting threats in running cloud workloads. Both stages need protection.
SBOM Lifecycle Management
Wiz discovers runtime SBOMs for workload inventory. Safeguard.sh manages complete SBOM lifecycle: generation, enrichment, validation, secure distribution, continuous monitoring, and EO 14028 attestation—critical for federal compliance.
Autonomous Supply Chain Healing
Wiz alerts on cloud security issues requiring manual fixing. Griffin AI autonomously fixes supply chain vulnerabilities—generating pull requests, validating compatibility, and deploying fixes without manual intervention.
Third-Party Software Risk
Wiz assesses cloud vendor security posture. Safeguard.sh TPRM validates software supplier SBOMs—addressing the 95% of breaches involving third-party software components, not just cloud vendor security.
