Detect identity compromise and privilege abuse
Valid credentials and approved tools can be misused by external attackers, insiders, or overprivileged users without triggering traditional malware controls.
The record
Telemetry these decisions draw on
- Authentication events
- MFA activity
- Privilege grants
- Role changes
- Dormant-account activation
- Service-account behavior
- Access by application and data store
- Approval records
The questions
What an agent answers
- Is the identity behaving outside its normal role?
- Was privilege granted with proper approval?
- Is a dormant or service account being misused?
- What sensitive systems were accessed?
- Which privileges should be removed or reviewed?
"A finance user was granted cloud-administrator privileges without an approved change ticket and used the role to access a production storage account."
