CIEM addresses cloud native security challenges of managing IAM in cloud environments. These challenges are often too complex and dynamic to be managed effectively by the native tools provided by cloud service providers (CSPs). The emerging CIEM category defines technologies that provide identity lifecycle and access governance controls, which ultimately reduce excessive cloud infrastructure entitlements and streamline least-privilege access controls across dynamic, distributed cloud environments.

Key Challenges Managing Cloud Infrastructure Entitlements:

Privileged Access Management.

Identity Governance and Administration.

For Privileged Access Management, a CIEM should:

Monitor and prevent entitlement misuse.

Assess the necessary duration of entitlements.

Address the prolific nature of cloud entitlements.

For Identity Governance & Administration, a solution should cover:

Visibility, governance and compliance oversight.

Monitoring excessive and risky entitlements.

Rightsizing automation.
