The CloudKnox Cloud Security Platform
Significantly reduce your risks against compromised credentials, accidents and insider threats
THE PROBLEM WITH PRIVILEGE
It’s not enough to guard against malicious intent. The keystroke that takes a data center offline is more likely to be a result of a typing error.
The #1 risk to your infrastructure is a trusted identity with excessive privileges (e.g. service accounts, API keys, applications, bots, third party contractors or employees).
When workloads can be deleted with a keystroke, understanding and managing high risk privileges across your cloud environment is a critical but daunting task – unless you have proper tools.
Old solutions DO NOT WORK
Good security means adherence to the principal of least privilege. Yet the misfit between role-based access controls (RBAC) and today’s dynamic cloud environments makes this nearly impossible.
Roles include a pre-determined set of privileges yet identities assigned a role rarely require all of those privileges. There is a better way. Privileges should be granted based on what is needed to perform day-to-day jobs.
CHANGES THE EQUATION
Our approach is built upon our belief that the solution to mitigating insider threats should not be about restricting privileges but about creating a much less intrusive path to managing high-risk privileges without impacting productivity and trust.

“CloudKnox’s security solution is an important element in securing our critical infrastructure. I was impressed that they were able to successfully deploy in under 30 minutes. I didn’t believe them and actually timed them!”
