Excellent data cloud security tips and tricks{||| today| right now| 2022| from SonraiSecurity? Address the root of your cloud vulnerabilities: Recognizing which vulnerabilities are the most dangerous to your business means understanding threats unique to the host. A vulnerability is a crack in the perimeter, but revealing the path to sensitive data comes from platform, identity, and data risks. To reveal this, Sonrai Risk Amplifiers automatically highlight vulnerabilities with high privileges, access to sensitive data, or external exposure. Read even more details at cloud security. Stakeholder value metrics: Track progress over time with digestible KPIs that give your team benchmarks and make sense to executives.
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.”
The ‘Where’s my data?’ question needs a simple answer. Sonrai gathers object storage, warehouses, databases, block storage in every shape and size, along with the location and movement history of data, to provide cloud teams with a uniform view and true picture of the current security posture. With Sonrai, you always have a full picture of data across the entire cloud environment – and know exactly where it is and where it’s been. Separate the noise from the signal for access alerts.
That cloud security is a growing concern and that identities (specifically, non-person identities) are a critical factor of it is not surprising to us at all. To give an example of scale, Sonrai measures 30,000 unique permissions across all three major clouds with 17 new permissions being added every day. Think about that, with the rapid growth both in the usage of the cloud, and the complexity of Identity Management, how can even the most well-funded teams keep up? They don’t, and often times they operate with significant risks in their cloud, to which they are completely blind.
Know where your data is. Know it’s classified properly. Confidently identify and monitor critical resources with total assurance. Protecting sensitive data is the core mission of the Sonrai platform. We help you unearth data, classify it, tag it, and monitor all activity around critical resources — including actions inside databases and secret stores. Defending the identity-to-data attack path requires protection from both ends, made possible with cloud data leak prevention. See extra information at https://sonraisecurity.com/.
