An identity can use multiple different capabilities to create a path to data or change its initial privileges. Assuming a role, they can use the role’s privilege escalation capabilities to access a new right to change privileges, and then from there change the permissions of their original group. While cloud or IAM providers show discrete permissions, and even certain excessive permissions, Sonrai monitors and reveals effective permissions, which account for multiple complex lateral movements. Without Sonrai, these complex paths remain hidden and represent enormous enterprise risk. Maintain least privilege in the right places.

Enterprises in highly competitive markets are rapidly scaling in the public cloud, with 76% of these businesses saying that this scaling is critical to their success. From a newly commissioned study conducted by Forrester Consulting on behalf of Sonrai Security and Amazon Web Services (AWS) entitled “Identity Controls Are Central to Enterprise Plans for Cloud Security,” 80% of decision-makers surveyed note that the increase in cloud migrations is requiring a new set of security solutions with 74% of firms believing cloud migrations require new IAM solutions.

Understand lateral movement risk – no matter how complex. Identities, often representing services and non-human users, can inherit a series of roles, group memberships, and permission sets and chain them together to bridge a path to sensitive data. Sonrai provides a true, full view of identity access that understands and accounts for potential access via cloud-specific rights like privilege escalation, improper separation of duties, or abuse of the “confused deputy problem.”

Misconfigurations and gaps in platform best practices remain the leading cause of data exposure. Standard static snapshots of cloud security posture often miss ephemeral infrastructure that’s out of compliance between scans every day, without security teams ever even knowing it. Sonrai provides enterprises with continuous monitoring and smart automation to deploy policies with precision and avoid these issues. Datastores, VMs, identities, databases, key vaults, and more — Sonrai’s best-in-class API inspection and integrations into secret stores provide a comprehensive view of what’s in your cloud, where it is, and who’s accessing it.
