Permiso threat detection for identity security

Permiso, the pioneer in real-time identity security, launches its new platform to help security teams assess and reduce exposure risk in addition to their extensive threat detection capabilities.

Permiso detects and protects against human and non-human identity threats across cloud and on-prem environments in a single platform vs. the many fragmented solutions in the market now that may only focus on one environment or one type of identity. 

Investments in identity security

Permiso couples threat-informed risk posture controls to help teams identify those identities that are most likely to be compromised, with best-in-class threat detection to detect identity compromise as it happens. 

The single solution not only inventories all identities, monitors their risk posture, but also detects suspicious and malicious behaviour of those identities. This enables enterprises to consolidate their investments in identity security that covers more of the applications and services in their environment.

Permiso’s Universal Identity Graph

The importance of securing human and non-human identities – the primary credentials to access any system – has never been more critical.

According to Permiso’s State of Identity Security Survey Report 2024, nearly half of organisations (45%) remain concerned or extremely concerned about their current tools being able to detect and protect against identity security threats, and 45% reported an identity security incident in the last year.

As part of the platform, Permiso’s Universal Identity Graph enables security teams to create a graph relationship of all credentials and identities across their environments to gain a complete view of who’s accessing what and whether the behaviour is normal or suspicious.

Benefits from Permiso's new identity security platform

In addition to the Universal Identity Graph, enterprises leveraging Permiso's new identity security platform will benefit from:

• Comprehensive Identity Inventory: A full inventory of all human and non-human identities across environments.
• Proactive Vulnerability Detection: Identification and enumeration of identity vulnerabilities to mitigate risks before exploitation.
• Advanced Threat Monitoring: Continuous monitoring for suspicious access and behavioural anomalies.

How enterprises protect their most valuable assets

"Identity security is no longer just about securing credentials; it’s about understanding the full scope of human and non-human interactions within an organisation," said Jason Martin, Permiso Co-founder and Co-CEO.

"With the launch of our new platform, we are setting a new standard for how enterprises protect their most valuable assets."

Permiso monitors

"Identity security needs to be addressed with a holistic approach that eliminates the potential for blind spots. Permiso monitors both human and non-human users to quickly identify those that are most likely to be compromised, and those that have already been compromised,” said Autodesk Chief Trust Officer Sebastian Goodwin.

“Permiso gives us a central inventory of all of our identities and credentials, their vulnerabilities, and monitors them for suspicious and malicious behaviour, allowing us to quickly and effectively respond to threats.” 

Permiso's new identity security platform

Permiso's new identity security platform builds upon its existing ITDR capabilities

Permiso's new identity security platform builds upon its existing Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) capabilities, which provide coverage across identity providers, IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS applications. 

Permiso has developed more than 1,500 detection signals across these environments, fuelled by its expertise in tracking threat actor groups such as LUCR-3 (Scattered Spider), a group known for compromising human identities and non-human identities to gain access to sensitive data.

Permiso has added several Las Vegas luxury resorts and casinos as customers in the wake of campaigns orchestrated against hospitality groups in recent years.

Permiso's P0 Labs team

The steps that Permiso is taking to secure human and non-human identities come amidst the backdrop of the increasing adoption of agentic AI, which will no doubt add new and expanded identity risk threats.

Permiso's P0 Labs team has identified numerous campaigns leveraging NHIs, including resource hijacking, password spraying, and credential stuffing attacks.
