Delinea Privilege Control for Cloud Entitlements

Why Delinea Privilege Control for Cloud?

95% of cloud identities have excessive permissions. IAM policies are too permissive. Visibility into effective permissions is impossible without specialized tools. Over-privileged accounts are a critical cloud risk.

Delinea Privilege Control for Cloud Entitlements (CIEM) is Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management. Automatic discovery of all entitlements. Risk analysis identifies over-privileged identities. Automated remediation reduces permissions to least privilege.

How does it work?

Entitlement Discovery

Comprehensive visibility:

• All IAM policies
• Service accounts
• Role assignments
• Resource permissions
• Effective permissions

Risk Analysis

Identify over-privilege:

• Unused permissions detection
• Excessive access flagging
• Risk scoring
• Blast radius analysis
• Policy recommendations

Automated Remediation

Right-size permissions:

• Policy suggestions
• One-click remediation
• Approval workflows
• Rollback capability
• Continuous monitoring

Main features

Multi-Cloud Support

• AWS IAM
• Azure RBAC
• GCP IAM
• Cross-cloud visibility
• Unified dashboard

Permission Analysis

• Used vs granted permissions
• Activity-based recommendations
• Anomaly detection
• Peer comparison

FAQ

Does CIEM require agents? No. Agentless. API-based discovery and analysis via cloud provider APIs.

How does it identify over-privileged accounts? Compares granted permissions vs actual usage. Unused permissions flagged as excessive.

Can I remediate automatically? Yes. One-click or automatic with approval. Rollback available if needed.

What compliance frameworks? CIS Benchmarks, SOC 2, PCI DSS, GDPR. Pre-built compliance reports.

How often does it scan? Continuous monitoring. Real-time alerts for high-risk changes.

Does it support multi-account? Yes. AWS Organizations, Azure Management Groups, GCP Folders. Cross-account visibility.

How does permission recommendation work? ML analyzes activity patterns. Suggests minimal permission set based on actual usage.

Does it integrate with Delinea Platform? Yes. Unified view of cloud and on-prem privileged access. Single console.

What’s the onboarding process? Read-only API access to cloud accounts. Minutes to deploy, hours to full visibility.

What about support? Delinea support for software. nFlo offers cloud security assessment and CIEM deployment.
