Description
Customer information is strictly accessed solely for the purpose of meeting contractual requirements, and any access by support or engineering teams necessitates a valid business reason. The near real-time logs provide a detailed account of when Google Cloud administrators interact with your data, allowing you to approve or reject access requests made by Google employees assisting your service. Enhancing visibility and control over your cloud provider is achievable through the utilization of admin access logs and approval mechanisms. A lack of ability to audit access by a cloud provider can pose significant challenges when migrating to the cloud. Access Transparency allows you to verify when your cloud provider has accessed your information, thereby aligning your audit measures more closely with those of on-premises systems. Furthermore, Access Approval facilitates the process of either endorsing or denying access requests from Google employees who are involved in supporting your service. These Access Transparency logs can be found in Cloud Logging and can be seamlessly integrated into your existing analysis workflows or tool exports, enhancing your operational efficiency. This level of oversight is crucial for maintaining security and compliance in a cloud environment, ultimately giving you peace of mind.
Description
Opal Security is an identity governance and access management platform built for organizations that need to control access across employees, AI agents, applications, infrastructure, and other non-human identities. The platform applies policy and governance controls to access requests, privileged sessions, entitlement reviews, and automated systems from a single layer. Paladin, Opal’s AI decision engine, reviews requests, evaluates policy and risk, explains its reasoning, and can either make a decision or escalate the request to a human reviewer. Just-in-time access capabilities allow organizations to provide temporary privileged permissions only when necessary and automatically revoke them afterward. Opal also uses AI to support access reviews by examining entitlements, weighing available evidence, and recommending whether access should be retained or removed. For AI agents and autonomous systems, the platform can govern what they are allowed to see, access, and execute. Every access change and administrative action can be logged, attributed, searched, and exported to systems such as SIEM platforms or Amazon S3. Opal supports cloud-hosted, self-hosted, virtual machine, and Kubernetes deployment models for organizations with different infrastructure and regulatory requirements. Security capabilities include SOC 2 Type 2 certification, TLS encryption in transit, AWS KMS encryption at rest, vulnerability scanning, penetration testing, and support for US or EU data residency.
