Effective Permissions in CIEM

Public cloud security starts with identity, but it doesn't end there

Securing identity, platform, and data across the public cloud requires a deep understanding of the interlocking relationships that make up cloud infrastructure. Trust relationships across accounts, hidden access to privilege escalation capabilities, and many more ephemeral identities (like serverless functions) mean getting this right isn’t easy.

Security has traditionally relied on hunting for excessive permissions, but in the cloud, that concept leaves out a majority of relationships. Sonrai provides an understanding of effective permissions with a view into deeper, more complex identity chains. Excessive permissions is a term that covers explicit permission issues, where a policy is readily relatable to an identity. This is where other CIEM solutions focus. Effective permissions covers what an identity can, has, or could access, requiring an understanding of all the permutations possible in a complex identity chain – whether that means across accounts, via temporary escalation, or inheriting a role from a policy that’s 5 leaps away from the identity’s discrete permission set.

Here’s why organizations choose to work with Sonrai:

CIEM that scales with you

All cloud deployments are expanding. The major cloud providers release an average of 17 new permissions a day. Keeping up with the sheer volume of permissions, identities, and objects in public cloud is a challenge at every level. CIEM must be scalable, constantly up to date, and able to provide automated remediation and actionable alerts to keep your cloud secure.

Multicloud support across Azure, GCP, and AWS

Integration with all relevant cloud services, audit data sources, and deep expertise in architecting within the major cloud providers make Sonrai a central hub for any cloud footprint.

Modularize or unify CIEM, CSPM, and Cloud DLP

Understanding every identity’s paths to data means knowing the journey forwards and backwards. Pair your identity controls with data classification and critical resource monitoring to lock down your most important assets from both ends – and make sure the platform supporting it all is secure with configuration and framework checks.

Operationalize and grow with your cloud

Maturity modeling that tells you where you are in your security journey, tells you where you’re weakest, and sets realistic goals over time for what you can achieve – giving your team easy-to-understand KPIs and a roadmap for success.
