In an era where data breaches are as common as they are damaging, securing sensitive information has become paramount for businesses across the globe. Data Access Governance stands at the forefront of this battle, ensuring that the right people have the right access to the right data at the right time. It's a holistic approach that not only fortifies data against unauthorized access but also enables organizations to harness its full potential responsibly and efficiently.

At AWS Re:Invent 2021 in the keynote address, AWS CTO Werner Vogels, invested a significant chunk of time in zooming in on the Identity and Access Management (IAM) of what he called the Everywhere Cloud. He emphasized that while often being underestimated or overlooked - IAM, remains a critical aspect of our overall security posture. ‍ ‍

We're thrilled to announce that starting this week, Entitle has made its debut on the prestigious AWS Marketplace. This is a significant milestone that promises to improve cloud access management for AWS customers. ‍

The New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) Cybersecurity Regulation, commonly referred to as NYCRR 500, lays out stringent cybersecurity requirements that financial companies operating in New York must adhere to. To navigate the complex landscape of NYCRR 500, companies are turning to innovative solutions like Entitle to streamline compliance efforts and bolster their cybersecurity posture. ‍

In this conversation, Phillip Wylie is joined by Ron Nissim, the CEO of Entitle. They delve into the dynamic world of authentication and privilege access management, exploring the significance of automation and simplification in securing our digital landscape. They dive into the future of authorization and how innovative solutions like Entitle are reshaping the way we protect our data and systems.

As organizations navigate the ever-evolving landscape of cloud computing and digital transformation, security remains a top priority. With the exponential growth of users, devices, and data in cloud environments, effective identity and access management is crucial to maintaining a strong security posture.

For decades the principle of least privilege has been a fundamental component of cybersecurity. The principle of least privilege revolves around granting users the minimum level of access necessary to perform their tasks, minimizing the risk of unauthorized access and data breaches.

As the digital landscape expands, organizations are facing a complex challenge: managing access to an ever-growing number of resources, applications, and services. The traditional approach of using identity groups to handle access control is becoming increasingly untenable. So, let's explore the causes behind role explosion and discuss the need for a paradigm shift towards a more scalable and efficient access management strategy. ‍

In today's digital landscape, where data breaches and security threats are a constant concern, ensuring least privilege access is of utmost importance for companies operating in the cloud. Granting the principle of least privilege to employees helps minimize the risk of unauthorized access, accidental misuse, and insider threats. However, achieving and maintaining least privilege access can be challenging, often resulting in manual processes, delays, and potential security gaps.

Selecting an identity management solution is a critically important decision for any software organization. Identity management is a foundational component of good cloud security and can either be an enabler for scalability or a huge technical debt sink. Many organizations start with AWS by quickly throwing together their IAM infrastructure: some users, a few roles, and some policies.
