Cloud Infrastructure Security for Azure
Proactively managing security risks in Azure cloud infrastructure is a major challenge for enterprises looking to protect business-critical applications and data. The inherent gaps in coverage and visibility from native tools make it difficult to detect and prioritize cloud security risks spanning across cloud security posture and infrastructure entitlements.




Overcome Complexity from One Multicloud Platform
The Ermetic platform delivers cloud native, context-aware security for Azure. Ermetic is a comprehensive security platform that offers teams full-stack asset visibility, actionable and prioritized risk intelligence, automated remediation and policy enforcement, real-time anomaly detection and compliance auditing in one fully integrated platform. It combines cloud infrastructure entitlements management (CIEM) and cloud security posture management (CSPM) capabilities in one.
Prioritize Risks Across All Azure Cloud Resources
By continuously discovering your entire multicloud asset inventory and applying full-stack analytics, you can identify risk accurately and in context. Using Ermetic, you can enforce least privilege access in your cloud for all identities, across the entire technology stack, and manage their security posture with ease. Ermetic helps Security and DevOps stakeholders work together to govern access and ensure cloud security without impact to application continuity or speed to market.




The Challenge of Azure Native Security Tools
Azure provides native security tools, such as Access Review, Privileged Identity Management and Defender for Cloud to help minimize access-related and compliance risk, and build security into applications. However such tools need cloud expertise, require much work to operationalize, lack granularity, and are standalone and hard to scale.
One notable shortcoming of Azure native RBAC is that they cover excessive permissions for human users only. A significant part of the excessive permissions problem is with service principals and/or managed identities used by functions or VMs. These machines can often be part of a “toxic” combination, such as one that grants public access to the internet.
The #1 attack surface Identities and Entitlements
Gartner predicts that, by 2023, 75% of public cloud security failures will be the result of inadequate management of identities, access permissions and privileges.
Ermetic is the most comprehensive and accurate solution for managing human and service identities in cloud infrastructure environments. The platform offers deep, actionable visualization of all identities, entitlements and resources, full risk context, and advanced analytics to mitigate hidden dangers and achieve least privilege at scale.
- Continuously identify and analyze excess permissions, auto-remediate access risk and enforce least-privilege permissions — in accordance with your organizational practices.
- Immediately detect, visualize and prioritize risks, making an immediate impact on your security posture across your entire Azure cloud.
