Overview
Andromeda Security automates permissions and lifecycles for human and non-human (NHI) identities in Cloud and SaaS environments and provides complete visibility, dynamic least privilege, intelligent just-in-time (JIT) access, and automated user access reviews (UAR).
To future-proof identity access, we take a dynamic, risk- and context-based approach instead of static entitlements and manual approvals. Our data-centric solution achieves both security and business agility – missing elements in today’s fragmented and siloed identity security landscape.
At the solutions’ core is our identity resource graph overlaid with purpose-built AI/ML models and advanced analytics to increase visibility, reduce complexity, and combat the mounting challenges arising from identity sprawl, excessive privileges, and manual processes.
Our Vision: Even if an identity is compromised, there will be no business impact.
Andromeda Security Modules:
Human + NHI Security: Centralized inventory to understand your entire identity landscape. We surface insights into high-risk areas, provide a score with risk level, and make actionable recommendations to fix issues based on the user’s role, risk, usage, and behavior context.
Dynamic Least Privilege: Achieve true least privilege. Score risk and rightsize permissions to low-risk standing privileges based on role and access. Classify entitlements as high-risk, low-risk, and frequently used, to recommend optimal roles that maintain least privilege. Automate approvals of low-risk access requests based on dynamic risk evaluation.
Just-in-Time (JI) Access: Improve business agility by automating permanent standing/low-risk workflows and moving all high-risk access to JIT. Analyze factors like the user’s risk profile, recent activities, location, and device to make decisions rather than relying on static entitlements. Integrate access requests and approval processes directly into collaboration tools like Slack and Teams, providing context to approvers.
Governance & Compliance: Automate user access reviews (UAR) and provide AI-powered detailed session recordings and analysis of cloud activities, identifying high-risk actions and anomalies to report and surface to managers.
Key Capabilities / Features
Andromeda Security JIT Capabilities
JIT Request Access
Workflow for requesting just-in-time (JIT) privileged access to cloud environments and applications?
Methods for requesting JIT access
- Self-service request access by users
- Request access by Admin on behalf of users
Tools for requesting JIT access
- Web UI
- Slack
- Microsoft Teams
Ability for an admin to request JIT access for a specific user
Fine-grained JIT access at the role level (not just addition to a pre-existing group)
Ability to customize who can request JIT access to what application or cloud environments
Ability to convert existing standing access to JIT access
Ability to schedule one or more JIT requests in future
Ability for the users to extend existing JIT sessions
JIT Request Analysis
Insights and context to the approvers to help them with the approval of a request, including insights and contexts around identity's posture, behavior, and privileges
JIT Request Approval
Customizable JIT approval flow for
- Who can request access
- Who should be the approval chain
Automated JIT request approval based on the following factors:
- Identity posture risk factors
- Identity behavior anomalies
- Requested Role's risk
- Application or resource criticality/data sensitivity
- Usage history of the requested Role by the user
- Usage pattern of the requested Role by the user's peers
JIT Session Analysis
Session recording of the user activities during a JIT privileged access session
Analysis and a security summary of user activities in a JIT privileged access session in natural language
How we are different
Context: We are able to provide context with access requests to automate standing low risk access requests and send all high risk access to JIT with context for the reviewer to understand who is making the request, are they coming from their usual location, are they making a request that is not in line with their own behavior or that of their peers or did something anomalous happen from their account last week. With full context, requests can be made securely, with intelligence, and in less time reducing friction and improving business agility.
Our JIT aligns with the zero trust principle of "never trust, always verify." High-risk access is granted for a limited time window, after which the permissions are automatically revoked. Most solutions focus solely on role recommendations rather than incorporating real-time risk analysis into the access control process.
Just-in-Time (JI) Access: Improve business agility by automating permanent standing/low-risk workflows and moving all high-risk access to JIT. Analyze factors like the user's risk profile, recent activities, location, and device to make decisions rather than relying on static entitlements. Integrate access requests and approval processes directly into collaboration tools like Slack and Teams, providing context to approvers.
