Onam Security DSPM review
A broad cloud DSPM engine with a free plan and a $22-per-resource Pro tier.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Onam Security DSPM is a data security posture management engine within the Onam cloud security platform. It is designed for security, cloud infrastructure, and compliance teams managing multi-cloud environments. The engine discovers object stores, databases, warehouses, streams, secrets stores, backups, snapshots, and shadow stores. Agentless scanning uses read-only cloud credentials, while classification covers PII, PCI, PHI, and other sensitive categories through regex patterns, format validators, and ML models.
Pricing is structured across three platform tiers. The Free plan costs $0 and includes one cloud account, core CSPM rules, CIS benchmark coverage, and community support. Pro costs $22 per resource per month with monthly billing, and adds unlimited cloud accounts, all 29 security engines including DSPM, all 78 compliance frameworks, REST API access, and email and Slack notifications. Enterprise includes everything in Pro, plus a custom compliance framework builder, SSO / SAML 2.0, a dedicated security engineer, and an on-premises deployment option. A 14-day free trial is also available.
The strongest fit is for teams that need cloud data discovery, classification, exposure analysis, and permission analysis in one platform. Onam evaluates encryption, access controls, retention, logging, and data residency, then produces prioritized findings with suggested fixes, framework citations, and MITRE ATT&CK mappings. Snowflake, Slack, and REST API integrations support ecosystem fit. Teams needing on-premises deployment should plan for Enterprise, while organizations seeking a separately priced standalone DSPM product may prefer another option.
