Identity Security
Secure All Your Cloud & SaaS Identities - Human & Non-Human
Did you know that most organizations have experienced at least one security breach because of an identity misconfiguration? As human and non-human identities continue to grow within cloud environments, a proactive and comprehensive security approach can reduce blind spots and help prevent identity breaches.
Why is Identity Security Crucial?
Every single SaaS and cloud identity can be exploited by threat actors with disastrous consequences. Take control of your identity security with CheckRed—detect, secure, and prevent identity-based attacks before they happen.
Eliminate Identity Exploits Before they Become Breaches
CheckRed continuously monitors and protects both human and non-human identities in your SaaS and cloud environments, preventing unauthorized access and privilege escalations.
Gain Full Visibility Over Non-Human Identities
With non-human identities outnumbering human ones by at least 10:1, CheckRed detects, tracks, and secures every identity—ensuring no credentials are left vulnerable.
Prevent Identity Misconfigurations & Reduce Risk
CheckRed identifies and remediates identity misconfigurations in real time, eliminating weak policies that leave organizations susceptible to attacks.
Expose & Secure Shadow Identities
Shadow identities often operate outside standard security controls, making them high-risk. CheckRed provides full visibility, enforces security policies, and restricts unauthorized access to ensure compliance and reduce attack surfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is identity security and why is it essential in cloud environments?
Identity security involves managing and protecting user and service identities in cloud environments. Identity security is essential because it helps prevent unauthorized access, data breaches, and compliance violations. With the increasing complexity of cloud infrastructures, securing identities (both human and non-human) ensures that access is tightly controlled and monitored, reducing the risk of security threats.
What are human identities and why is it important to secure them?
Human identities refer to individuals who access digital resources and systems using unique credentials. Identity security for individuals is vital because cyber attackers often target users looking to exploit weak or compromised credentials. A breach of human identity can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive information, data breaches, and identity theft.
What are non-human identities and why should they be secured?
Non-human identities are digital entities such as APIs, bots, and applications that perform automated tasks and interact with cloud resources without direct human involvement. Identity security for digital entities is important because they often possess significant privileges and access rights that can be exploited if compromised. Non-human identities can become entry points for attackers without proper security measures, leading to unauthorized access, data breaches, and service disruptions.
