Integrate CloudSploit with Vulnetix. Scan AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI cloud environments for security misconfigurations and export JSON findings for upload to Vulnetix.

Node.jsCLI toolJSONCSVJUnit

Install & scan

$ # Clone and install (required for config file)
git clone https://github.com/aquasecurity/cloudsploit.git
cd cloudsploit && npm install
$ # Configure credentials (copy and edit config.js)
cp config_example.js config.js
# Edit config.js with your AWS/Azure/GCP credentials

# Run AWS scan with JSON output
node index.js   --config config.js   --json=cloudsploit.json   --ignore-ok

Run CloudSploit in CI

Scan on every push and upload the report as a workflow artifact:

- name: Run CloudSploit
  run: |
    git clone https://github.com/aquasecurity/cloudsploit.git && cd cloudsploit && npm install
    echo '${{ secrets.CLOUDSPLOIT_CONFIG }}' > config.js
    node index.js --json=../cloudsploit.json --ignore-ok

- name: Upload to Vulnetix
  run: vulnetix upload --file cloudsploit.json

How Vulnetix compares: better together

Vulnetix does not replace CloudSploit. Keep running it. Vulnetix sits on top of CloudSploit (and every other scanner you already own) turning disconnected tool outputs into one prioritised, fixable queue.

CloudSploit is strongest at its core category and also carries features in Compliance & Policy Engines, just as Vulnetix spans categories.

What CloudSploit does well

Where Vulnetix adds to it: CloudSploit is a solid multi-cloud config scanner with compliance mappings and basic auto-remediation. Vulnetix ingests its cloud findings and unifies them with SAST, SCA, container, IaC and secrets results into a single deduplicated queue prioritised by EPSS, CISA KEV, ESS and Vulnetix LEV, adding reachability, versioned VEX, SSVC and EOL policy. Better together: CloudSploit runs the cloud posture checks, Vulnetix correlates and prioritises them across the whole software supply chain.

No migration, no rip-and-replace. CloudSploit keeps doing what it does best; Vulnetix adds the orchestration, exploit-intelligence prioritisation and remediation layer built for the way AppSec works today.

Centralise CloudSploit results in Vulnetix

Upload CloudSploit JSON, CSV, JUnit output to the Vulnetix platform to deduplicate findings, prioritise them with EPSS, CISA KEV and Coalition ESS exploit intelligence, and track remediation across every scanner in a single queue.
