At cloud scale, locating all data and understanding its sensitivity requires automation. This requires a continuously updated picture of your cloud via API interrogation, as well as deep integration into secret stores and databases. It’s critical to be able to identify what kinds of data are uniquely important to your operation. Custom classification and tagging is a must-have.
Without activity data, you can’t understand who needs access to what data, or alert on improper access. Understanding historical access and future potential access are both needed. Sonrai builds a unified picture of activity logs, keeping you up to date on which identities are accessing what data when.
Once you’ve got a map of where your data is and what’s happening to it, you need to apply rules to each piece of data that configures the minimum access needed – without tripping up routine development. Strong classification & tagging tells you what data is sensitive and activity logs inform who needs access. Sonrai prebuilds Least Access policies that follow best practices.
