Top rated platform cloud security tips and tricks{||| today| right now| 2022| by SonraiSecurity? Vulnerability prioritization for VMs and containers requires going beyond age, CVSS score, and exploit status. Sonrai Risk Amplifiers leverage the sonrai identity graph to highlight vulnerabilities with access to administrator privileges, access to sensitive data, or connected externally. Deploy Sonrai’s lightweight agentless scanner for workload insights without heavy cloud resource requirements – or enrich the Sonrai platform with existing scanner data. Discover additional details at Least Privilege. Custom to your cloud: Sonrai organizes your cloud by team and workload importance, right-sizing policies for each environment and allowing you to route issues to the relevant people.
Monitor critical resources and enforce Least Access where it matters. Least access is extremely important to apply to critical resources. But as a strict policy goal, it’s difficult to apply it to every piece of data. When you consider that your cloud comprises tens of thousands of pieces of compute and thousands of roles with rights and privileges to access data, this becomes a daunting task. Sonrai’s Identity Graph lets you understand every identity’s historical data access and potential access, allowing you to enforce a least access policy in the right places without placing unnecessary tripwires elsewhere. Certain data assets are so sensitive that you need to know everything happening to them. Sonrai will show behavioral use and access pattern changes to these critical resources.
Customers are taking action – according to the Forrester study, by 2023 82% of firms say they will have invested in cloud infrastructure entitlement management solutions. Customers in the study see machine learning, automation, and DevOps integration as key to addressing this complexity and we at Sonrai wholeheartedly agree. We also believe that to get the true risk picture of their public cloud, organizations require context beyond just the identities themselves, and need to connect identities with business data, overall platform risk through CSPM, and workload security. In addition to this context-based risk picture, the methods for managing the risks also need to evolve. Only through the use of intelligent workflows and automation, can security move both at the speed, and the scale of the cloud. When working in this new model, we believe that organizations can achieve a level of security in the cloud, using the cloud, that was never before possible.
Sonrai provides frameworks to check against external compliance and best practice standards (NIST, GDPR, HITRUST, etc.) and many more prebuilt groups of policies that can selectively apply to environments based on calibrated risk tolerance. Tailor your security posture management and only apply policies where they’re needed. Sonrai is the cornerstone of our public cloud security. It delivers complete visibility of platform, identity, and data risks across AWS and Azure.
Sonrai’s Risk Amplifiers and patented identity graph show the hidden “blast radius” of each vulnerability so you can understand how severe a vulnerability truly is and make the next right step to secure your cloud. True context can’t be limited to only exploit availability and whether a workload is running or not. Those factors alone just won’t tell you anything about the potential for sensitive data exposure. With Sonrai’s risk amplifiers, you know exactly what vulnerability needs patching today to keep your enterprise and data protected. See extra information at https://sonraisecurity.com/.
