About CloudSphere

CloudSphere, formerly known as HyperGrid, is a technology company specializing in cyber asset management. Founded in 2016 by Manoj Nair, the company operates in the cloud security and governance market, providing a platform designed to help enterprises manage and secure their complex, multi-cloud environments. The business serves large enterprises that are navigating the challenges of cloud adoption and need to maintain visibility and control over their digital assets.

The company's core offering is a Cyber Asset Management platform that automates the discovery, classification, and remediation of security and compliance risks across various cloud services like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, as well as on-premise infrastructure. This platform provides a comprehensive inventory of all cyber assets, allowing security and IT teams to understand their entire digital footprint from a single interface. The service addresses the critical need for governance in hybrid cloud environments by identifying misconfigurations, security vulnerabilities, and compliance gaps.

CloudSphere's business model is based on a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) subscription, where clients pay for access to the platform's capabilities. The platform's key benefit lies in its agentless approach to data collection, which simplifies deployment and provides a non-intrusive way to monitor assets. By integrating with existing security tools and workflows, it aims to streamline operations and reduce the manual effort required for asset management. In 2022, CloudSphere was acquired by a global software company, signifying a key milestone in its journey and validating its market position.
