I think what you're seeing now is the adversaries, the bad guys, they're basically focused on, 'look where's the weakest link, where is the place where we've spent the least?'

Software is an essential driver of growth and innovation for every company; however, business apps we install on autopilot can suddenly become spy tools, which means trust is the weak spot. Security teams should keep a live map of where every monitoring app is allowed to run and flag it the moment one pops up somewhere odd.

Permiso's platform uniquely addresses identity threats by combining risk management with comprehensive monitoring of both human and non-human identities across environments.
