Cloud data security solutions: tackling complex access issues ...
As businesses increasingly adopt cloud services and software-as-a-service solutions, the need for stronger cloud data security solutions has never been more critical. Organizations are grappling with the growing complexity of managing data access and permissions, often struggling to ensure that users have only the access necessary for their roles. This situation underscores the necessity for advanced AI-driven solutions capable of efficiently handling permissions and entitlements, offering unparalleled visibility and control.
Veza's Approach to Cloud Data Security
According to Tarun Thakur, co-founder and chief executive officer of Veza Inc., bringing identity to be a security posture-centric starts with visibility and an intelligence layer known as the access graph or identity graph. By understanding the quality of access through machine analysis, organizations can integrate security measures into their operations effectively.
Challenges in Cloud Data Security
One of the challenges facing the cybersecurity industry is the difficulty of managing data access in a cloud-driven world. As organizations continue to move data to the cloud, the fragmentation of permissions across multiple systems has become a significant hurdle. Veza addresses this challenge by focusing on the principle of least privilege and introducing innovative AI-driven solutions like Access AI to simplify and streamline permission management.
Democratizing Identity Management
Veza aims to democratize identity management by making it accessible to a wider range of stakeholders within organizations. By involving app owners, data owners, and DevOps teams in the process, identity management can become an integral part of their roles, leading to a more secure and resilient digital infrastructure.
