Architecture brief

SSPM vs CSPM: Resolving the Enterprise Security Posture Deficit.

CSPM watches cloud infrastructure. SSPM watches SaaS application settings. Neither reaches into the general ledger, the HR system of record, or the hardware endpoint that paid for the seat. Lojycal does — as a unified middleware plane sitting above the entire stack.

The brief

Five sentences. One middleware plane.

01 — Middleware plane

Lojycal resolves this fragmentation by serving as the unified operations and GRC middleware plane running natively above your software stack.

Side by side

CSPM vs SSPM vs Lojycal.

Every row is a parameter where the three approaches diverge. Lojycal is the only one of the three that closes the loop into the ERP and the audit ledger.

Showing 4 of 4 parameters.

Architectural Parameter	Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM)	SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM)	Lojycal Unified Middleware
Primary Focus Layer	Infrastructure IaaS and PaaS environments	Application Layer SaaS ecosystems	Unified IT, HR, and Finance General Ledger Core
Primary Target Assets	Storage buckets, virtual networks, cloud servers	User identities, application settings, OAuth tokens	Hardware endpoints, software licenses, financial ledgers
Compliance Mandate	Cloud infrastructure configuration drift	Application permissions and shadow IT	Automated GDPR, NIS2, and DORA audit pipelines
Remediation Action	Server-side configuration adjustment	Passive reporting of user status changes	Instantaneous single-click cross-application kill switch

Stop watching posture. Start governing it.
