Description

Permiso is a cloud identity security platform designed to secure every human, non-human, and AI identity across enterprise environments. At the core of the platform is the Universal Identity Graph, which continuously maps identities to credentials, machines, workloads, AI agents, permissions, and runtime activity. This allows security teams to maintain visibility across cloud infrastructure, SaaS applications, CI/CD systems, AI agents, and on-premises environments even when identities move across authentication boundaries. Permiso provides identity discovery, identity security posture management, runtime identity monitoring, threat detection, exposure analysis, and incident response from a single platform. The platform continuously evaluates identity usage patterns, entitlements, stale access, overprivileged accounts, inherited permissions, and runtime behavior to prioritize identities that present the greatest security risk. Its runtime attribution capabilities extend visibility beyond authentication events into agent executions, tool calls, MCP invocations, serverless functions, and machine identities. Permiso also detects lateral movement, credential compromise, anomalous behavior, insider threats, and identity-driven attacks using real-time runtime and control plane telemetry. Organizations can use the platform to secure human users, service accounts, vendors, workloads, APIs, non-human identities, and AI agents across complex enterprise environments. Permiso helps security teams reduce identity-related risk while improving detection, investigation, and response capabilities throughout the identity lifecycle.

Description

Quest Identity Defense, previously known as Security Guardian, is a hybrid identity security platform for protecting Active Directory and Microsoft Entra ID from identity-based threats. The platform continuously observes human and non-human identities to identify Tier 0 exposures, privileged attack paths, risky configurations, anomalous behavior, and other identity vulnerabilities. Identity posture management compares AD and Entra ID configurations with security best practices and provides guidance for remediating identified weaknesses. Proactive object protection helps prevent critical Tier 0 assets from being improperly changed or compromised rather than relying exclusively on rollback after an incident. Quest's Shields Up functionality and agentic AI defense capabilities can automatically freeze at-risk users or critical objects, contain active threats, and limit attacker lateral movement. Continuous anomaly monitoring and detailed auditing show who changed what, when and where the activity occurred, and the workstation from which a change originated. AI-driven analysis converts identity telemetry into security insights and remediation guidance intended to help teams investigate threats and respond more quickly. A flexible API enables organizations to integrate Identity Defense information with existing security tools and custom workflows, while the platform is also designed to support audit and compliance requirements. Quest Identity Defense covers identity security functions across the Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover, and Govern pillars of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework and is FedRAMP High authorized.
