Permissions & Entitlement Management

Optimize Identities and Access in the Cloud

98% of granted cloud permissions are not used. Eliminate excessive entitlements with access policies based on in-use permissions and real-time incident data. Gain visibility into cloud identities and enforce least privilege with cloud infrastructure entitlement management (CIEM).

Address Excessive Permissions Risks in Minutes

Identify inactive users and identities with excessive permissions. Optimize access policies to grant just enough privileges.

  • Enforce least privilege

    Right-size permissions using automatically generated policies, with a view of in-use permissions across your clouds.

  • Identify compromised users

    Analyze identity activity patterns to identify users that are actively compromised, as well as other risky users and roles.

  • Simplify compliance

    Meet specific identity and access management requirements for standards, including PCI, SOC 2, NIST, ISO 27001, and more.

It’s critical for us to understand where we have overly permissive identities, and due to the scale, we need an automated way to manage them. Trying to abide by the principle of least privilege, eliminating excessive permissions is a top security priority.”

Harden cloud security posture with CIEM

Inadequate identity and access management (IAM) is one of the most common causes of security failure. Sysdig’s CIEM uses runtime insights to optimize permissions for overprivileged users.

Cloud Identity Insights


Identify compromised users based on the earliest indicators of privilege escalation and account compromise.


Prevent future attacks with real-time incident context, automatically recommending access policies that limit users to permissions used before compromise.


Analyze access patterns to identify unused permissions. Generate access policies to restrict privileges to precisely what users need to perform their jobs effectively.


Automatically map IAM violations with risk labels (multifactor authentication, inactive user, administrative access).

In-Use Permissions

Find and fix roles with overprivileged access. Analyze access patterns to provide insights about in-use permissions based on observed behavior.

Risk Prioritization

Spotlight the most significant risks using runtime insights. Identify potentially compromised users and the riskiest users and roles.

Cloud Attack Graph

Connect the dots between in-use vulnerabilities, permissions, and real-time detection to uncover hidden attack paths and risks.
