Introducing Wiz Cloud Cost: Powering Cost Management and Optimization with Context

Cloud spend scales with cloud infrastructure, driven by decisions made across dozens of teams. This spend powers business growth, but as cloud environments grow in complexity, waste creeps in. Idle VMs, unattached volumes, excessive shadow data, overprovisioned resources, inefficient storage types, and other costly configurations silently inflate cloud bills. AI compounds the problem, accelerating the pace of new development and adding unpredictable token spend to the total. To drive cost efficiency in the cloud, organizations must separate waste from essential spend. That requires context you can’t see on the cloud bill: resource utilization rates, resource configuration details, how resources connect to each other and what workloads they support. It also requires driving cost accountability back to engineering teams: identifying resource owners, providing cost visibility, and guidance for implementing cost optimization recommendations. At Wiz, we've spent years solving the visibility, context, and ownership challenges in the cloud for security and engineering teams. Now, we’re bringing our deep cloud context…
