CloudKnox Security extended support for serverless functions on Amazon Web Services, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform.
Together, the support for serverless functions and ServiceNow integration underscore CloudKnox's market lead with the most comprehensive support offering in the cloud infrastructure entitlement management segment.
With this extension, CloudKnox customers gain remediation for multi-cloud serverless functions, allowing security and infrastructure teams to generate a right-sized permissions policy based on activity of roles associated with the serverless function.
"The ephemeral nature of serverless functions leads people to believe that over provisioning for serverless functions is harmless. But the reality is that serverless functions are full-fledged machine-non-human-identities, meaning they can access your infrastructure in the same way a human user can," said Raj Mallempati, Chief Operating Officer, CloudKnox.
"If a serverless function is over-permissioned, it can cause the same costly damage-either accidentally or maliciously-to an enterprise's infrastructure that a human user can. As with all identities, serverless functions must be monitored and right-sized when necessary."
