In JavaScript, when you want to compare frameworks, you go to TodoMVC. Same app, every framework. You compare React and Vue and Svelte against identical requirements. The differences such as bundle size, rendering approach, state management, verbosity reveal themselves on uniform ground.
Cloud security has never had this.
Every vendor demos against their own scenario. Prowler shows you their best findings. Wiz shows you their graph. AWS Config shows you its rules. Nobody runs them all against the same deliberately misconfigured environment and publishes what each one found and what each one missed.
If you're evaluating cloud security tools such as during a POC, a vendor comparison, or an internal assessment, you're comparing demos, not data.
This should change.
