Beyond Identity

Organizations implementing continuous authentication and Zero Trust principles need to understand who and what devices are accessing sensitive SaaS resources and the security posture of those devices. Beyond Identity links identity to device, allowing these organizations to validate not just the identity, but the authenticating device’s security posture. With Beyond Identity, customers own their authentication data.

Beyond Identity’s personalized data on the Snowflake Marketplace offers near real-time data about the users and devices attempting to access your critical cloud resources across applications. Leveraging Beyond Identity’s event data, security teams can ensure only secured devices and authorized users access company data. This can help stop all password-based attacks, block lateral movement, and improve threat detection and incident response.

Beyond Identity continuously gathers data concerning the security posture of registered devices and forces their adherence to organizational device security policies. Real-time risk-based authentication is informed by dozens of user and device risk signals during each login - enabling customers to enforce continuous, dynamic access control across the cloud applications and resources used to operate your organization. By leveraging personalized Beyond Identity Event logs, security teams get: Strong Authentication Beyond Identity eliminates passwords as an authentication method and cryptographically binds user identity to the device via the secure TPM hardware on the device.

This eliminates credential-based attacks and provides a very high assurance of the user identity before allowing access to critical SaaS resources. Granular Risk Signals and Immutable Logs Beyond Identity captures granular device security posture data at the exact time of login such as operating system version, security software state, and device type. Authentication event data is captured and aggregated in the Beyond Identity Administrative Portal for every login attempt.

Identify Risky Users Beyond Identity stops unauthorized users and rejects devices from authentication if they do not meet an organization’s security requirements. Unauthorized devices that are not bound to a valid identity are stopped from authenticating.
