Cloud computing is complex with multiple networked devices, configurable distributed systems, a wide variety of connectivity, and services that support on-demand user requests. Cloud computing services feature multi-tenancy and third-party managed infrastructure that are vulnerable to privacy issues and different attacks.
KeyData’s Identity and Access Management (IAM) services, alongside market-leading solutions will help you transform your organization, improving the customer experience, and ensure your staff have the tools in place to drive growth.
IAM is everything in the cloud – confidentiality, integrity, and availability are somewhat controlled by the service provider, but inadequate IAM controls around usage of the cloud resource can impact the service. KeyData can guide you to design appropriate controls to your cloud resources, and integrate them with IAM solutions to manage these controls.
Ensure a person, device, service, or application is eligible for accessing cloud-based resources. IAM solutions can connect to cloud services, and permit or block access to a resource depending on the authenticated user entitlements, just like your on-prem assets.
Grant the least number of permissions needed for a task to ensure that if a user or app is compromised, the blast radius remains within the entity to which a user is granted access.
Apart from securing cloud apps, robust IAM solutions help organizations avoid compliance violations by accurately reporting to auditors how security is managed for the cloud resource, how data is managed, and enables end-to-end audit trails to prove the assertions.
