Company Recognized for Leading the Non-human
Identity Security Space
SAN
FRANCISCO, May 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Astrix
Security, the enterprise's trusted solution for securing non-human
identities, has earned three awards from Cyber Defense Magazine
(CDM):
- Editor's Choice Cybersecurity Startup of the Year
- Best Solution Saas/Cloud Security
- Market Leader Third Party Cyber Risk
"While 49% of breaches involve stolen credentials, 90% of
credentials are not protected by existing IAM solutions. Service
accounts, API keys, OAuth apps, and other non-human identities hold
privileged access to enterprise environments and stay under the
radar. The recent attacks on Dropbox, Cloudflare, Okta, and
Microsoft prove how attackers recognize that non-human identities
are the path of least resistance," says Alon Jackson, Astrix Security's CEO and
co-founder. "Astrix continues to pioneer this space, helping
security teams gain visibility and control over these unmonitored
and improperly secured identities, which in turn allows businesses
to unleash the immense power of connectivity and automation,
without compromising on security. Earning these awards validates
the strides we are making in the non-human identity space, and we
are honored to be recognized amongst more industry leaders."
Astrix is the first solution to help security teams gain full
control of their non-human identity layer, across all environments
- SaaS, IaaS and PaaS. Using an agentless approach, Astrix allows
security teams to quickly discover all their non-human identities
and access tokens in one place, and automatically detects and
remediates over-privileged, unnecessary, and malicious access that
exposes their organizations to supply chain attacks, data breaches
and compliance violations. Astrix helps security teams
automatically detect and remediate attacks leveraging non-human
access in real-time, as well as continuously reduce attack surfaces
by managing the complete lifecycle of every connection, from
creation to expiration with automated remediation workflow
integrated with their existing IT management systems, SIEM and
SOAR.
Astrix's platform helps security teams like Agoda, Netapp,
Workato, Priceline, and Figma seamlessly remediate risky access
with automated workflows integrated into their organization's daily
IT service management tools.
"Astrix embodies three major features we judges look for to
become winners: understanding tomorrow's threats today, providing a
cost-effective solution and innovating in unexpected ways that can
help mitigate cyber risk and get one step ahead of the next
breach," said Gary S. Miliefsky,
Publisher of Cyber Defense Magazine.
Astrix Security will be exhibiting at RSA Conference 2024,
May 6-9 (Moscone South Expo, Booth
#3106).
