Cloud Security Startup
Sept. 30th, 2021: The 2021 Cybersecurity Breakthrough Awards have named Britive the winner of the Cloud Security Startup of the Year award. The CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards recognize excellence and the innovation, hard work and success in a range of information security categories including Cloud Security, Threat Detection, Risk Management, Fraud Prevention, Mobile Security, Email Security, and more. This year’s program attracted thousands of nominations from across the globe.
The Britive team is honored to be recognized alongside some of the most innovative companies in the industry. Since its founding, Britive has championed innovation, collaboration, and customer focus.
Modern Multi-Cloud Privilege Management Platform
Unlike competing IAM/CIEM and PAM technologies, the Britive Multi-cloud Privilege Management Platform addresses a key cloud access security gap – the elevated exposure and risk associated with maintaining standing cloud access privileges and over-privileged cloud accounts – through the application of a unified access model across IaaS, SaaS, PaaS, and DaaS services. These gaps, left unchecked, can leave organizations at increased vulnerability of ransomware and other attacks resulting from exposed account credentials.
The cloud-native, 100% API based Britive platform (no agents, gateways, or proxies) provides temporary Just-in-Time (JIT) privilege grants – the on-demand granting of elevated privileges for human and non-human users that are automatically revoked after a set period of time – which enables companies to minimize their attack surface through maintaining a state of Zero Standing Privileges (ZSP).
In addition, organizations can ensure that employees and contractors are granted the right level of privileges when onboarded, constantly right size those privileges over time, enforce access policies, and fully offboard users when they leave the organization – enabling IT teams to maintain Least Privilege Access (LPA) throughout the cloud identity lifecycle, and minimize the potential blast radius of internal threat actors.
Finally, Britive integrates seamlessly with CI/CD automation software such as Jenkins and Terraform, empowering cloud application development teams to add access security to their development pipeline without introducing management complexity or creating a security speedbump – a common challenge for traditional IAM and PAM solutions, and a key impediment to building effective DevSecOps processes.
