Executive Summary

Veza's Access Monitoring solution provides continuous oversight of access activities by identities and roles across key resources. It goes beyond who *can* access, by also monitoring who *has* accessed, enabling organizations to identify over-privileged permissions, right-size roles, and trim unnecessary access. This capability extends to Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM), determining whether identities actively utilize their granted access to critical data resources like Snowflake. The platform is designed to modernize access management, offering comprehensive visibility into privileged access and non-human identities. By centralizing detailed permission data from SaaS applications, cloud services, and data systems, Veza helps organizations enforce least privilege, reduce their attack surface, and enhance their overall security posture. It is particularly valuable for organizations seeking to improve their access governance and compliance.
