CIEM Security Best Practices: 5 Steps to Success 5 CIEM Security Best Practices for Cloud Infrastructure SuccessA successful CIEM approach focuses on depth and breadth: discovering, managing, and protecting identities, and seamlessly working alongside other identity security technologies to gather and apply context about the entire IT estate. Here are some best practices to adopt: 1. Assess & Map (Cloud Identity Visibility)Start by understanding which identities exist and how access actually works. Visibility starts by inventorying human, machine, workload, AI agent, and third-party identities across cloud environments. Additionally, map roles, policies, keys, and secrets, then visualize relationships and

Allow Changing Account Permissions When managing integrations in Entitle, permissions to access to them are given in a controlled or restricted way:Entitle sets up a temporary account for a user once, adding and removing permissions as needed. This saves users time and admins the task of setting up a new connection every time a temporary user is created in the integrated development environment (IDE). If it's preferred to set up a temporary account for the user each time they make an access request, the setting Allow changing account permissions can be turned off in the integration settings. If Allow changing account permissions is: On (checked): The first time a user requests access, a single account is created. Future requests will use this same account and login cred

Entitle Frequently Asked Questions - FAQs How is the seat usage determined? After purchasing the product, it's mentioned that the instance will allow x amount of users or seats as per the agreement signed. The user count is based on every user that is affected by Entitle. This would include both active and passive use. If a birthright policy is in use, the access given to the user counts as 1 seat. (passive) If a user creates an access request on a specific integration on behalf of someone else, that would count as 1 seat. (active) Refer to the Birthright policies and

Setting up a Virtual Application in Entitle A virtual application is a mechanism which streamlines the end-user experience in scenarios where access requests to an application are implemented indirectly in the background. For example, by joining an IdP group which triggers IdP provisioning flow. Instead of navigating technical steps, the end user simply selects the application from a list and submits an access request, without needing to understand the underlying process. This feature is designed to simplify the end-user experience by renaming resources, such as Okta groups, to something more intuitive for different environment scenarios. The user will see a recognizable name and icon in the search results which they can request access to, without being aware of the complex implementation. Learn more and watch the demo video

Allowing Users Edit Accounts Setting The checkbox “Allow users to edit accounts” has now been added. This checkbox allows admins to control whether users can request accounts other than their own. The option to allow or prevent users from editing the account used within an access request provides tighter control and follows the principle of least privilege. Before this addition, any user could change the account for any access request they made. By default, this checkbox is deactivated (unchecked) for security, and admins will need to check it for the integrations that users will need to change their accounts for. This setting is activated or deactivated per integration by Entitle admins.   When unchecked, only an Entitle admin can cha
