In the effort to keep your cloud secure, are you looking at all your cloud identities -- human and non-human -- and their entitlements? Likely not, as cloud visibility is notoriously poor. And yet, that lack of visibility and control over access and entitlements to your compute, storage and network assets is almost surely jeopardizing your sensitive resources and security posture. 

Forrester Research sees the ability to govern identities and mitigate access risk as essential for any organization whose cloud infrastructure footprint is large enough to secure. 

In this on-demand webinar, cloud security expert Andras Cser, vice president and principal analyst serving security & risk professionals at Forrester explains what a cloud identity governance solution requires to be effective, and why. The session will cover:

  • Mapping and analyzing identity access in context as a strategy for reducing your cloud attack surface and protecting against insider threats
  • Automating your cloud through automatic access policy reviews and recertification, and IAM permissions reduction, reducing the need for manual attestation
  • Cloud identity governance as a pathway for addressing privacy requirements


Check out this on-demand webinar to find out how governing cloud identities can help you reduce cloud security threats while improving administrative efficiencies and addressing compliance needs.
