Wiz vs. BeyondTrust Cloud Privilege Broker

Wiz introduces a novel strategy for cloud security by identifying critical risks and potential entry points across various multi-cloud settings. It enables the discovery of all lateral movement threats, including private keys that can access both production and development areas. Vulnerabilities and unpatched software can be scanned within your workloads for proactive security measures. Additionally, it provides a thorough inventory of all services and software operating within your cloud ecosystems, detailing their versions and packages. The platform allows you to cross-check all keys associated with your workloads against their permissions in the cloud environment. Through an exhaustive evaluation of your cloud network, even those obscured by multiple hops, you can identify which resources are exposed to the internet. Furthermore, it enables you to benchmark your configurations against industry standards and best practices for cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, and virtual machine operating systems, ensuring a comprehensive security posture. Ultimately, this thorough analysis makes it easier to maintain robust security and compliance across all your cloud deployments.

The Cloud Privilege Broker provides your organization with vital resources to monitor and visualize entitlements across diverse multi-cloud environments. Its centralized, cloud-agnostic dashboard displays crucial metrics for straightforward access. Users, roles, policies, and endpoints are consistently discovered across all supported cloud platforms. This solution delivers in-depth policy recommendations for Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS) environments through a single, cohesive interface. BeyondTrust's Cloud Privilege Broker (CPB) functions as an all-encompassing tool for managing entitlements and permissions, enabling clients to effectively visualize and reduce cloud access risks in hybrid and multi-cloud environments, all from one centralized access point. Each cloud service provider typically offers its own access management tools, which are confined to their individual ecosystems and do not integrate with others. As a result, teams frequently have to navigate multiple consoles, managing permissions separately for each cloud provider, which complicates the application of policies due to the differing methods across platforms. This disconnection not only heightens the risk of oversight but also introduces unwarranted complexity into the management of permissions, making the need for a unified solution all the more critical. Ultimately, a centralized approach ensures more streamlined operations and enhanced security in cloud access management.
