Microsoft named a leader in the Frost Radar for cloud and application runtime security

Frost & Sullivan named Microsoft a visionary leader in its 2026 Frost Radar for Cloud and Application Runtime Security, recognizing the shift in cloud security from visibility and compliance to contextual risk reduction across the full technology stack. The report highlights that modern cloud environments demand unified platforms that correlate signals across infrastructure, applications, APIs, and workloads to prioritize exploitable vulnerabilities rather than severity alone. Leading platforms now integrate cloud detection and response with application detection and response into a single operational model spanning development, operations, and security teams.

Why it matters: Cloud security practitioners must adopt integrated runtime risk platforms that correlate cross-layer signals to prioritize exploitable attack paths; Microsoft's positioning as a leader reflects market convergence toward unified cloud and application security platforms that reduce operational overhead and focus remediation on real threats.
