Semperis , a pioneer of identity-driven cyber resilience for enterprises, today announced the expansion of Forest Druid, its community-driven attack path management tool, to include support for Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), saving time for cybersecurity teams in identifying and closing risky attack paths across hybrid identity systems.

Key Points: 
  • Semperis , a pioneer of identity-driven cyber resilience for enterprises, today announced the expansion of Forest Druid, its community-driven attack path management tool, to include support for Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), saving time for cybersecurity teams in identifying and closing risky attack paths across hybrid identity systems.
  • “By expanding Forest Druid to encompass Entra ID, security teams can now uncover risky access to Tier 0 assets across hybrid identity environments, which have become a favorite target for cyberattackers.
  • These recent enhancements in both Forest Druid and Purple Knight address concerns we’ve heard from our customer community about emerging attacks that target Entra and Okta, in addition to legacy AD environments.”
    Unlike conventional AD attack path management tools that require defenders to scrutinize countless possible attack paths, Forest Druid accelerates attack path analysis by focusing on Tier 0 assets—accounts, groups, and other assets that have direct or indirect administrative control of an AD or Entra ID environment.

Veza Introduces Next-Gen IGA Solution to Deliver Identity Security for the Enterprise

Retrieved on: 
Tuesday, October 10, 2023

Identity security is a top priority because research shows that 80% of cyberattacks leverage identity-based techniques. Organizations need processes to reduce the permissions sprawl that allows attacks to succeed. Reflecting that need, NIST has proposed the addition of “govern” to its widely-used Cybersecurity Framework (CSF)--the first update in a decade. According to Gartner® Market Guide for Identity Governance and Administration, “IGA tools have not kept up with demand for machine (device and workload) identity management capabilities, forcing companies to pursue separate solutions in many cases.” Traditional IGA products have blind spots with access because they were built for an era with dramatically fewer permissions.

Key Points: 
  • Today Veza , the identity security company, announced the launch of its Next-Gen IGA (Identity Governance and Administration) solution.
  • The solution comprises the Veza Access Control Platform and new products for provisioning and deprovisioning, access reviews, access visibility, and access intelligence.
  • Veza powers Next-Gen IGA with the Veza Access Control Platform, which ingests and analyzes authorization permission metadata from enterprise systems and organizes it into the Veza Authorization Graph.
  • Moreover, the Veza platform allows us to manage the entire lifecycle of an identity, meeting both security and compliance needs.
