Stack Identity is a comprehensive identity security platform designed to detect, eliminate, and govern unauthorized access—referred to as Shadow Access—in cloud environments. By integrating Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management , Identity Threat Detection and Response , and Cloud Identity Governance and Administration , Stack Identity provides a unified solution to manage identity and access risks across cloud and data estates. Key Features and Functionality: - Unified Platform: Utilizes an Identity Security Data Lake to consolidate, correlate, and contextualize identity, access risks, and vulnerabilities across cloud infrastructures. - Automated Detections: Identifies toxic combinations, chained access, lateral movement, drift detection, overprivileged access, unauthorized shadow access, shadow identities, and policy violations. - Open API Platform: Offers data enrichment and analytics capabilities, enabling detection, remediation, and governance tailored to business needs. - Extensible Integration: Seamlessly integrates with multi-cloud environments, Identity Provider systems, ticketing systems, Security Operations , Identity and Access Management , and Governance, Risk, and Compliance processes. - Compliance Automation: Automates audit and compliance processes for frameworks such as AWS FTR, HIPAA, CISA, PCI DSS, SOC2, SEBI, CIS, and FedRamp. Primary Value and Problem Solved: Stack Identity addresses the critical challenge of Shadow Access—unauthorized, unmonitored, and unintended access to sensitive data and applications in cloud environments. By providing continuous visibility and automated remediation of identity and access risks, the platform helps organizations prevent data breaches, ensure compliance, and strengthen their overall security posture. This proactive approach enables security and engineering teams to audit, govern, and promptly rightsize access, thereby reducing privilege exposure and shrinking the attack surface.
