"The Hidden Risk in IAM: Slow, Error-Prone, and Insecure"

Manual IAM Configuration Creates 75% Deployment Permission Failures

Organizations struggle with complex IAM role and policy management where platform engineering teams must manually configure deployment roles, service accounts, and least-privilege access policies, leading to 75% of deployment failures due to missing permissions like ECS service creation or IAM PassRole rights, while forcing developers to wait for platform teams to manually troubleshoot and fix IAM policy issues that can take hours to resolve.

Compromised Credentials Enable 85% of Security Breaches Through IAM Drift

IAM roles and policies are manually modified outside of Infrastructure as Code controls, violating least-privilege policies and creating unauthorized access vectors where compromised credentials can lead to data breaches, with 85% of security incidents involving IAM drift going undetected for days or weeks, allowing attackers to exfiltrate sensitive PII data through accounts that should have been restricted or disabled.

Zero-Trust Architecture Gaps: 90% of Organizations Lack Dynamic IAM Controls

Static IAM configurations cannot adapt to changing security contexts, application requirements, or threat profiles, with 90% of organizations lacking dynamic IAM role management that enforces just-in-time access, automated privilege escalation workflows, and real-time credential monitoring, leaving systems vulnerable to insider threats and persistent access that violates modern zero-trust security principles.

Solution

Simplified IAM Role Management

Import and manage custom IAM roles

Allow users to define, import and manage IAM roles for multiple cloud providers.

  • Centralized management of custom IAM role configurations for AWS, Azure, and GCP.
  • Easy customization of roles to meet specific application or team needs.
  • Governance and enforcement of organizational role-based access controls (RBAC).
1. Import and manage custom IAM roles

Create and manage AWS IAM roles

Integrate with AWS to import and manage custom IAM roles.

  • Define custom IAM roles with precise and granular permissions at the subscription, resource group, or resource level.
  • Assign roles to specific teams, applications, projects, folders, or resources, ensuring least-privilege access.
  • Support trust policies to define which entities (users, applications) can assume roles.
2. Create and manage AWS IAM roles

Enforce trust relationships

Define and enforce trust relationships, access and compliance, and conditional role policies

  • Limit role assumption to specific AWS accounts or services.
  • Use conditions for dynamic access control.
  • Restrict actions on sensitive resources.
  • Enforce tagging rules for resource governance.
  • Apply roles based on resource tags or attributes.
  • Set conditions like specific regions or access durations.
  • Set conditions like specific regions or access durations.
3. Enforce trust relationships

Least-privileged role governance

Assign roles scoped to teams, projects, or environments.

  • Consistent application of least-privilege principles.
  • Prevention of unauthorized role escalation or misuse.
4. Least-privileged role governance

Validate compliance

Validate role assignments and usage against compliance standards.

  • Real-time alerts for non-compliant roles or permissions.
  • Comprehensive reports for audits and governance reviews.
5. Validate compliance
Benefits

Intelligent IAM That Moves Fast—Without Breaking Security

Automated IAM Provisioning Eliminates 75% of Deployment Permission Failures

Transform manual IAM configuration into intelligent, automated role and policy management that pre-configures deployment roles, service accounts, and least-privilege access policies with automatic permission validation, eliminating 75% of deployment failures due to missing ECS, IAM PassRole, or service-specific permissions while providing instant IAM policy updates that resolve permission issues in minutes instead of hours.

Real-Time IAM Drift Detection Prevents 85% of Credential-Based Security Breaches

Eliminate unauthorized access vectors through continuous IAM monitoring that automatically detects when roles and policies are manually modified outside of Infrastructure as Code controls, preventing 85% of security incidents by instantly identifying compromised credentials, unauthorized privilege escalations, and policy violations before attackers can exfiltrate sensitive data or establish persistent access.

Dynamic Zero-Trust IAM Controls Enable 90% Automated Privilege Management

Implement intelligent, context-aware IAM that adapts to changing security contexts and application requirements with automated just-in-time access, policy-driven privilege escalation workflows, and real-time credential monitoring, replacing static configurations with dynamic controls that automatically enforce least-privilege principles while maintaining seamless development workflows and compliance with modern zero-trust security standards.
