Attivo Networks announced a new Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management solution, IDEntitleX, designed to deliver visibility and reduce the attack surface for identities and entitlements in the cloud.

Organizations are moving to the public cloud in record-setting numbers, but with this growth comes unanticipated security challenges with user identity management and the explosion of "Non-human" identities such as applications, databases and data stores.

The new IDEntitleX solution reduces this risk by providing security teams with a unified view of identities and exposures across the organization to address provisioning management challenges while maintaining operational effectiveness.

"As organizations continue to adopt cloud infrastructure at an ever-increasing rate and human and non-human identities expand to match, CISOs must focus on identity-first security solutions that can keep pace with this growth," said Venu Vissamsetty, VP of Research at Attivo Networks.

"The rapid enterprise adoption of cloud computing has revealed a latent threat of 'permission sprawl,' and this challenge is driving an emerging technology segment that prioritises visibility and reduces the attack surface for identities and entitlements in the cloud. With the introduction of IDEntitleX, Attivo Networks is well-positioned to emerge as a major player in the CPM or CIEM market."

Platform-specific cloud visibility: Monitor entitlements to key cloud services, such as AWS S3 and Azure Key Vault.
