How SanctumShield works alongside Wiz

By Lindsay Hiebert · Founder · CISSP

Wiz secures cloud environments and the agents that run in them. SanctumShield adds the governance record: which AI your organization uses, who owns it, what your policy allows, and a dated document your board, auditor and insurer can read and confirm. The two answer different questions for different readers, and they fit together well.

What Wiz does well

Agentless cloud visibility

An agentless cloud connector scans environments without software to install, across posture (CSPM), workloads (CWPP), data (DSPM), identity (CIEM) and code.

AI security posture

AI security posture management covers the AI services and models running in your cloud environments.

Runtime protection for deployed agents

The Red, Blue and Green agents work as a team: Red tests like an attacker, Blue investigates, and Green works on the fix.

Detection and response

Wiz Defend adds threat detection and response for cloud workloads.

What SanctumShield adds

A record of the AI your people use

Your own network logs matched against a catalog of 130 AI tools and built-in AI features, and a registry of 118 known AI endpoints matched against your network logs, including the AI tools and built-in AI features people use day to day.

Policy and ownership

An AI Acceptable Use Policy of up to 16 sections written for your organization, with an agent inventory, permissions, stop authority and named owners.

Documents for the people the engineers report to

An Executive Risk Report with prioritized findings and regulatory citations, and a one-page Board Memo, as documents you download and keep.

A Verification URL for each document

Anyone you share a document with can confirm when SanctumShield produced it and for whom. The assessment is self-serve: Light, Standard or Complete, as much time as you choose, with the same four documents at every level.

Using both

Red finds it, Blue investigates it, Green fixes it, and SanctumShield records how it is governed. Wiz works for your security engineers in the cloud; SanctumShield produces the record your board, auditor and insurer read.

Findings from either side inform the other: a Wiz finding about a deployed agent belongs in the agent inventory and the next SanctumShield run, and SanctumShield’s owners and stop authorities tell your engineers who decides.

What SanctumShield covers

For organizations that secure their cloud with Wiz and want a dated record of how they govern AI.

130 AI tools and built-in AI features (82 tools, 48 built-in features) and 118 known AI endpoints matched against your network logs.

The assessment covers your company profile, the AI tools in use, AI built into the business software you already pay for, personal and unmanaged devices (BYOD), MCP gateways, the assurance record, document-grounded AI answers, the agent inventory and agentic posture, agent permissions and your network logs.

You receive the Executive Risk Report, AI Acceptable Use Policy, Board Memo and AI Posture Summary, each dated and downloadable as PDF, Word, HTML, Markdown and plain text, with a Verification URL for each.

Catalog and registry refreshed monthly. Latest update: October 27, 2026
