Overview
SPIRL’s Workload Identity Platform is a comprehensive solution designed to streamline and secure identity management across diverse IT environments, including cloud, on-premises, and hybrid infrastructures. By leveraging open standards. like SPIFFE and OIDC, SPIRL provides dynamic, attested identities for workloads, enhancing security and simplifying operations.
Key Use Cases Addressed by SPIRL:
Zero Trust Security: SPIRL facilitates the adoption of zero-trust principles by enforcing continuous verification and attestation of workload identities. This approach ensures that only authenticated and authorized workloads can access resources, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and potential breaches.
Non-Human Identity Governance and Administration (IGA): Managing identities for non-human actors, such as applications and services, can be complex. SPIRL automates the issuance and management of these identities, ensuring appropriate access controls and compliance with organizational policies.
Simplified Secret Management: Traditional secret management involves handling static credentials, which can be prone to leaks and require manual rotation. SPIRL replaces static secrets with dynamic, ephemeral credentials that are automatically issued and rotated, reducing the risk of credential exposure and simplifying management.
Elimination of Service Accounts: Static service account credentials pose security risks if not managed properly. SPIRL replaces these with dynamic, attested identities, ensuring that each workload has a unique, verifiable identity, thereby enhancing security and reducing administrative overhead.
Kubernetes Integration: In Kubernetes environments, managing workload identities across multiple clusters and cloud providers can be challenging. SPIRL provides seamless integration, offering consistent identity management and security policies across all Kubernetes deployments, whether on-premises or in the cloud.
Secure CI/CD Pipelines: Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines often rely on static credentials, which can be a security vulnerability. SPIRL enhances CI/CD security by providing short-lived, cryptographic identities for each stage of the pipeline, reducing the risk of credential theft and unauthorized access.
Key Capabilities / Features
SPIRL Workload Identity Platform Key Capabilities:
Unified Control Plane: Manage endpoint configurations, trust domains, trust bundle management, credential issuance, and identity federation from a single interface.
Fault Tolerant: SPIRL's offline-first design ensures trust domains remain functional even when the control plane is unavailable, providing resilience for critical operations.
Universal Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates with identity systems like ADFS and CI/CD platforms using token exchange, eliminating the need to manage distributed secrets.
Identity Governance: Provides full visibility into workload access and identity posture, offering insights into device status, credential validity, and provenance.
Developer Enablement: Allows developers to access production resources securely without managing secrets, minimizing access while maintaining service availability.
Audit & Compliance: Offers real-time visibility into credential activities, expediting incident response and aiding compliance with policies such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, and GDPR.
Why Choose SPIRL?
Enterprise-Ready: Delivers scalability with centralized visibility and control, ensuring seamless management and governance across complex environments.
Standards-Based: Built on open standards like SPIFFE, SPIRL integrates seamlessly across cloud and on-premises environments, ensuring compatibility with existing infrastructure and eliminating vendor lock-in.
Secretless: Recredentials every workload using SPIFFE and existing authentication technologies, eliminating the need for databases of secrets or passwords.
True Zero Trust: Authenticates directly at the workload, enforcing zero trust at the service level.
SPIRL is the fastest, most secure, scalable, and effortless way to deploy and manage workload identity.
How we are different
SPIRL performs authentication directly at the workload level. This ensures true zero trust enforcement, reducing attack surfaces and eliminating reliance on intermediary points of failure. Other companies rely on network proxies or centralized gateways to authenticate workloads which can cause additional risk,
SPIRL is built on open standards like SPIFFE, ensuring seamless interoperability across hybrid, multi-cloud, and on-premises environments. This eliminates vendor lock-in and enables organizations to integrate workload identity management with their existing infrastructure effortlessly.
Unlike solutions that rely on static credentials or secrets vaults, SPIRL eliminates the need for storing and managing secrets altogether. Workloads are issued dynamic, short-lived credentials that eliminate the risk of credential leaks, unauthorized access, and manual rotations.
