An Intellyx Brain Candy Update
AKA Identity provides an identity analysis platform for surfacing and managing an organization’s extended workforce access approach.
Since our previous coverage of the startup in 2023, ID management for people, APIs, and devices continues to be a challenging aspect of an organization’s cybersecurity strategy. AKA Identity is delivering tools to help meet this challenge.
Furthermore, ID management for cloud computing environments presents additional challenges because APIs perform cloud computing operational functions, which CI/CD pipelines use to provision application resources.
AKA Identity does not offer ID management but rather a platform to help an organization figure out the best way to handle their comprehensive ID management challenge.
AKA Identity provides visibility into which IDs have access to what information, and provides analytics that help an organization evaluate their ID security posture and make informed decisions about it.
AKA Identity’s tools answer questions such as “who has multi factor authentication enabled” or “who has access to things they shouldn’t have access to?”
When AKA Identity flags an over privileged account, for example, it generates a ticket to alert someone of the situation.
AKA Identity is delivered as a cloud based SaaS solution with a UI dashboard with visibility across an organization’s ID landscape.
