Delinea and Authomize partners to expand cloud identity security controls

Delinea and Authomize have partnered to create joint use cases which will enable organisations to gain better control over who can access cloud applications and services.

Delinea, privileged access management (PAM) solutions for seamless security, and Authomize, a provider of Cloud Identity and Access Security, announced a strategic partnership to co-sell their products. When combined with available integrations, this robust solution provides consistent privileged access security across multiple cloud infrastructures and SaaS applications through a Zero Trust approach.

In their race to the cloud, organisations have lost critical visibility and control over their identity and access privileges to sensitive assets. This leaves them dependent upon a fragmented assortment of highly siloed controls that are poorly suited to provide the comprehensive security necessary to enforce least privilege across cloud environments. According to research from Authomize, less than 10 percent of privileged roles and 37 percent of admins are active based on a study of organisations between one and ten thousand employees. These unused privileges increase risks associated with privilege creep and excessive privileges that open the door to exploitation of credential abuse and exposure.

Authomize achieves full-stack cloud access security by providing granular cross-stack visibility across Cloud Service Providers and developer-critical SaaS apps such as GitHub. Authomize tracks all identities, assets, and privileged access usage to provide comprehensive, actionable understanding of the cloud identity and the access layer that enables organisations to ensure security in every environment. 

“Our partnership with Authomize furthers our commitment to ensure that our customers’ cloud and SaaS environments remain secure by protecting sensitive cloud-native identities and entitlements,” said Ram Venkatachalam, Head of Strategy and Business Development at Delinea. “Authomize extends Delinea’s privileged access management capabilities with even more visibility over privileges in cloud infrastructure and adds a critical layer of continuous security.”

Dotan Bar Noy, CEO of Authomize, said, “This partnership with Delinea is the latest step in bringing a critical layer of security to our amazing, growing partner network, adding significant and needed value to Authomize and Delinea’s joint customers.”

Delinea’s suite of modern PAM solutions provides the baseline of secure access to IaaS and SaaS environments, empowering organisations to securely manage their credentials and access throughout their cloud applications and services. Authomize delivers a protective layer of security for cloud identities that continuously monitors access, validating, alerting, and providing actionable insights to remediate risks and secure all applications and cloud services. Named by Gartner as a Cool Vendor for Identity-First Security, Authomize brings a range of capabilities for addressing identity and access security use cases, including its robust Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM) solutions that are critical for securing access privileges in infrastructure services like Azure and AWS.
