NEW YORK – June 13, 2023 – Sonrai Security today was featured as part of the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association. This blog highlights critical aspects of cloud security in the context of Microsoft Azure, focusing on the integration of Sonrai Security’s solutions with Microsoft’s cloud security tools. Here are the five main takeaways:
1. Identity and Data-Centric Security Approach: It is critical to treat identity as the new security perimeter given that a significant portion of cloud breaches involve compromised identities or privileged credential abuse.
2. Complexity of Cloud Environments: Cloud environments are “an intricate web of risks”, where traditional perimeter-based security models are insufficient, necessitating a holistic view that encompasses identity, platform configuration, data security, and workload vulnerabilities.
3. Sonrai Integration with Microsoft Security Tools: Sonrai Security’s core platform integrates with Microsoft Sentinel and Defender for Cloud, enhancing the ability to detect, analyze, and remediate threats by providing comprehensive visibility and context across the digital estate.
4. Continuous Monitoring and Analytics: Continuous monitoring is fundamental, and the right analytics are needed to understand the true extent of privileges and access rights of identities (both people and non-people entities) and how they relate to sensitive data.
5. Prioritization of Vulnerabilities: A nuanced approach to vulnerability management that goes beyond traditional metrics is neeed, focusing on the potential business impact and “blast radius” of vulnerabilities to prioritize remediation efforts effectively.
