IDEntitleX expands the company ’ s leadership position in providing unprecedented visibility and prevention of identity privilege escalation and lateral movement threat activity . With this new product introduction , Attivo becomes the only solution of its kind to provide endto-end analysis of identity and entitlement exposures and risks on endpoints , Active Directory ( AD ) and the cloud .
The new IDEntitleX solution reduces this risk by providing security teams with a unified view of identities and exposures across the organisation to address provisioning management challenges while maintaining operational effectiveness .
This includes multi-cloud support for AWS and Azure and provides detailed entitlement visibility for users , applications , virtual machines , containers , serverless functions and other objects which attackers seek to target .
“ As organisations continue to adopt cloud infrastructure at an ever-increasing rate and human and non-human identities expand to match , CISOs must focus on identityfirst security solutions that can keep pace with this growth ,” said Venu Vissamsetty , VP of Research at Attivo Networks . “ This CIEM solution gives security teams the optimal flexibility and visibility they need for continuous monitoring of identities , entitlements , as well as correlation across standard cloud-based services .”
