Today organizations have a large part of their environment outside of their control. They have authentication, email, data, code—some organizations have the majority of their most important assets in cloud and SaaS applications. And yet the security team does not have effective tooling to investigate across this surface.So when a complex breach unfolds, an organization can find themselves scrambling. Why?The first problem is cloud scale. The amount of telemetry that is produced daily across this surface is extraordinary. The security tooling a team would use is not appropriate for the sheer volume of data that needs to be collected.The second problem is cloud complexity. Correlating cloud data into contextual alerts and insights that teams can act on is a massive task that requires deep understanding of each environment—which leads into the third problem:Most teams lack cloud expertise—and the DevOps teams they often turn to for cloud knowledge lack security expertise. Nobody is holding all the cards when it comes to detecting, investigating and responding to threats.We have spent years building a comprehensive solution that addresses the challenges facing modern SOC teams and the transforming enterprises they're tasked with securing. It distills our knowledge to elevate their cloud security capacity and capabilities. So the now SecOps can have broad visibility across clouds and SaaS—because our solution harvests all the needed telemetry and stores it for years for a minimal cost.When an incident happens, they can easily answer the questions that are fundamental to a modern organization’s security and resilience: Did anyone get in? Where did they go? What did they do while inside? What did they take? —because our Cloud Attack Scenario Library filled with the latest intelligence to root out cloud and SaaS threats.And they'll possess the speed of Mitiga's automation—to dramatically accelerate detection, investigation and response—minimizing impact.With Mitiga, the SOC is well equipped to deal with cloud threats.Learn more about Mitiga: https://itspm.ag/mitiga-5zzNote: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Ariel Parnes, COO and Co-Founder at MitigaOn LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/arielparnes/On Twitter | https://twitter.com/arielparnesResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Mitiga: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/mitigaView all of our RSA Conference Coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/rsa-conference-usa-2024-rsac-san-francisco-usa-cybersecurity-event-infosec-conference-coverageLearn more about 7 Minutes on ITSPmagazine Short Brand Story Podcasts: https://www.itspmagazine.com/purchase-programsNewsletter Archive: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/tune-into-the-latest-podcasts-7109347022809309184/Business Newsletter Signup: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-business-updates-sign-upAre you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-story

Aembit is the first Workload Identity and Access Management Platform. It discovers, enforces, and audits workload access. By using native identities and short-lived credentials, we eliminate the need for secrets scanning and credential rotation. We let your teams focus on building your software, without worrying about sharing API keys or misusing vaults. An Aembit access policy enforces authorized access in three steps: First, Aembit cryptographically verifies workload identity, and validates access rights. This works for the most complex environments like an AWS serverless app accessing Snowflake or Salesforce. Second, Aembit implements workload Zero Trust by adding conditional access. For example, Aembit can check CrowdStrike or Wiz posture assessment before authorizing access. Finally, Aembit issues access credentials. Aembit automatically injects short-lived credentials into requests with no burdensome code changes required by the dev team.The benefits of using Aembit include significant time savings and reduced complexity. This allows engineering teams to move faster in building software and APIs that help companies automate more and build great products. From a security standpoint, Aembit also mitigates a growing attack surface (workload credential compromise) by allowing companies to go secretless using short-lived dynamic access credentials, as opposed to long lived tokens. There's no more credential reuse across multiple workloads. They can also enable Zero Trust conditional access for workload access. If the workload isn't being actively managed by their cloud security tool, it shouldn't get access. And with Aembit, they now have a highly compliant automated system of record to keep track of every workload requesting access, which is huge for audit and compliance requirements.Learn more about Aembit: https://itspm.ag/aembit-1oqNote: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Apurva Davé, CMO at Aembit [@aembit_io]On LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/apurvadave/On Twitter | https://twitter.com/ApurvaBDaveResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Aembit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/aembitView all of our RSA Conference Coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/rsa-conference-usa-2024-rsac-san-francisco-usa-cybersecurity-event-infosec-conference-coverageLearn more about 7 Minutes on ITSPmagazine Short Brand Story Podcasts: https://www.itspmagazine.com/purchase-programsNewsletter Archive: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/tune-into-the-latest-podcasts-7109347022809309184/Business Newsletter Signup: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-business-updates-sign-upAre you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-story
