CloudKnox
Security, a leader in identity privilege management for hybrid and
multi-cloud environments, today announced it has earned Advanced
Technology Partner status in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Partner
Network (APN). This achievement underscores CloudKnox’s mission to
empower security teams to proactively address accidental and malicious
credential misuse by enhancing the continuous detection and mitigation
of over-privileged identities. The APN is a global program designed to
help partners build successful AWS-based businesses and solutions by
providing business, technical, marketing, and go-to-market support.
The APN Advanced Technology Partner designation is the highest tier for
APN Technology Partners that provide software and SaaS solutions.
CloudKnox achieved APN Advanced Technology Partner status through a
rigorous qualification process. The designation is based on AWS business
history and references from CloudKnox customers.
“With unprecedented levels of automation and innovation at the
infrastructure layer, IT teams have gone from managing less than 100
privileges to having to manage over tens of thousands of privileges
across hybrid clouds,” said Balaji Parimi, CEO and founder of CloudKnox
Security. “In effect, we’ve created ‘Super Identities’ with
extraordinary powers and a whole new set of challenges. We address these
challenges by abstracting the complexity out of managing human and
non-human identities, their privileges and the resources they can access
across disparate authorization systems. Achieving APN Advanced
Technology Partner status demonstrates the expertise to helping AWS
customers solve this problem.”
At the core of the CloudKnox platform is its revolutionary
Activity-based Authorization Protocol and “Just Enough Privileges”
Controller that provides a smart and simple way for enterprises to
enforce security best practices such as the principal of least
privilege, and separation of duties across their entire cloud
infrastructure. By applying an automated lifecycle approach to
identities, actions and resources, CloudKnox can ensure that the
security and infrastructure teams don’t have to worry about hiring
experts, writing scripts and training their teams every time a new
service or cloud platform is added to their environment.
