Who is Cado Security?
Cado Security is a cybersecurity company that provides a cloud-native Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR) platform focused on public cloud and container environments.
- Cloud-native DFIR platform for AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and container workloads (security operations).
- Automated evidence collection and processing from cloud infrastructure, virtual machines, containers, and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) sources (digital forensics).
- Scalable analysis environment that runs investigations using cloud resources and integrates with existing security tools (security analytics).
- Capabilities for threat detection, timeline reconstruction, and Root Cause Analysis (RCA) following cloud security incidents (incident response).
- Support for Security Operations (SecOps) center workflows, including case management, collaboration, and integration with Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) and Security Orchestration Automation Response (SOAR) systems (SecOps tooling).

More About Cado Security
Cado Security focuses on DFIR in cloud and container environments, providing a platform that security teams deploy to investigate security incidents across public cloud infrastructure and modern application stacks. The platform is designed for use by SecOps centers, incident response teams, and cloud security teams that need to perform investigations on cloud-native workloads while maintaining chain-of-custody and evidentiary requirements.
The Cado Security platform (cloud forensics and incident response) operates as a cloud-native application, using the elasticity of cloud compute and storage to collect, process, and analyze forensic data at scale. It connects to cloud provider APIs and services to acquire artifacts such as disk images, snapshots, logs, and metadata from environments like virtual machines, containers, serverless functions, and related cloud resources. This architecture allows investigators to perform forensic acquisition without deploying traditional endpoint agents across all assets.
Cado Security incorporates automation to orchestrate evidence capture, normalization, and enrichment. The platform parses a range of cloud and Operating System (OS) artifacts and constructs timelines of activity to support RCA. It applies analytics to highlight suspicious behaviors, such as unusual authentication patterns, privilege changes, or anomalous process execution in cloud workloads. These capabilities align with enterprise security categories such as incident response, digital forensics, cloud security, and security analytics.
From a technology stack perspective, the platform integrates with common cloud provider services and log sources, and it is designed to ingest and correlate data from SIEM systems (SIEM) and security orchestration, automation, and response platforms (SOAR). This enables SOC teams to trigger forensic workflows from existing alerting pipelines and to centralize findings in their broader security tooling ecosystem.
Enterprises use Cado Security to extend traditional endpoint-centric forensics workflows into cloud and container environments, where ephemeral resources and distributed architectures complicate evidence acquisition and analysis. Compared to legacy on-premises (on-prem) forensics tools that focus on physical hosts, Cado Security emphasizes API-based collection from cloud platforms, automated scaling using cloud infrastructure, and support for contemporary deployment models such as containers and microservices.
In directory and marketplace taxonomies, Cado Security aligns with categories including cloud security, incident response, digital forensics, and SecOps platforms. Its capabilities are commonly positioned alongside other SOC tooling that supports threat investigation, but with specialization in cloud-native evidence acquisition and analysis. Organizations adopting public cloud and containerized workloads use Cado Security to standardize cloud forensics procedures, support compliance and legal requirements for evidence handling, and provide technical teams with an environment for detailed investigation of cloud security events.
