Silverfort has unveiled two significant capabilities—Access Intelligence and Identity Graph & Inventory—designed to enhance its identity security platform. The new features aim to address the increasing complexity of identity and access management (IAM) and the heightened threats stemming from various identity types, including AI agents and non-human identities.
Organisations are encountering escalating identity-related threats in an environment marked by rapid digital transformation. This context has prompted Silverfort to expand its offerings, aiming to provide comprehensive observability and security controls across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments.
“The evolving threats around AI, non-human identities, and privileged access require a unified platform that can discover, analyze, and protect all identities, everywhere,” remarked Hed Kovetz, CEO and co-founder of Silverfort.
He noted that organisations often invest significant resources into fragmented solutions without achieving satisfactory results, further justifying the company’s focus on unifying identity security.
The new Access Intelligence feature offers a detailed view of resource access within organisations. By mapping who accesses what and how, IAM teams gain insights into user activity across various environments. This capability aims to identify hidden access paths and ensure that organisations adhere to the Principle of Least Privilege, which is critical for reducing security risks.
The release of the Identity Graph & Inventory capability is also noteworthy. This feature shifts away from static reports to dynamic, real-time visibility into hybrid identity environments. It provides organisations with a centralised view of identities, their entitlements, and relationships, enabling quicker and more efficient investigations—a crucial factor in today’s fast-paced cyber landscape.
As many entities in Southeast Asia grapple with fragmented IAM systems, the importance of addressing identity sprawl—from legacy systems to modern applications—cannot be overstated. Silverfort’s updates aim to mitigate these issues, which often lead to security blind spots and operational inefficiencies.
Silverfort has redesigned its Integration Hub to facilitate easier access to a library of bi-directional integrations, making the entire security stack more identity-aware. This change is expected to enhance overall security measures across enterprises.
Kovetz concluded, “With this release, we are making strides toward creating a unified identity security platform capable of addressing the complex landscape of identity-related challenges.”
Silverfort's innovations arrive at a pivotal time when organisations are increasingly focused on enhancing their security frameworks, especially as they navigate a complex digital ecosystem where traditional measures may no longer suffice.
