Overview
- Stop ransomware and lateral movement by enforcing consistent identity-first policies across every access path, powered by Universal MFA and an Authentication Firewall.
- Secure every unprotected system, including legacy infrastructure, by extending Multi-Factor Authentication to all human, machine, and AI identities in cloud and on-premise environments.
- Eliminate identity weaknesses like weak passwords and excessive permissions using Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) to find, fix, and fortify vulnerabilities across your entire environment.
- Gain complete control over non-human identities, such as service accounts and machine identities, with NHI Security that brings these hidden risks into full visibility and management.
- Map every identity relationship instantly with the Identity Graph, giving you a comprehensive view of how access is structured to pinpoint and remediate potential weak spots.
- Make faster, smarter access decisions using Access Intelligence, which delivers actionable context on user rights and behaviors for more effective risk management.
- Protect AI agents and AI-based identities from abuse with dedicated AI Agent Security features that monitor and secure these emerging identity types.
- Maintain real-time visibility into who has access to what across your organization, ensuring user access stays policy-compliant and secure at all times.
- Respond to incidents with an identity-first approach, using real-time access protection and intelligent response mechanisms that prioritize identity data to minimize security impact.
