Security

Identity Security

Access control determines who gets in. Identity Security determines what they can do once they are inside. 

Most enterprise breaches exploit identity services. Compromised credentials, and over-privileged and service accounts with excessive permissions are among the most common entry points that attackers use. This is becoming a bigger problem, as machine identities, API keys, and AI agents now vastly outnumber human users in most enterprise environments, and most have more privilege than they need. 

Governing this estate manually is unrealistic and increasingly difficult, as AI agents and automation outpace manual review cycles.  

Globalgig Identity Security addresses the full identity estate, including human users, privileged accounts, machine identities, and AI agents and autonomous systems that increasingly act on behalf of people and processes inside your environment. 

Benefits

Reduce your breach risk.

Remove standing privileges that make breaches catastrophic.

Govern every identity, not just human ones.

Get more productive with less data risk.

Turn identity governance into a defensible audit position.

Features

Identity Security_Features 01
01

Zero Trust Access Enforcement

This is identity-first security that verifies users and devices, before granting access to the internet, SaaS, and private applications. It is delivered through cloud-based secure access under SSE and SASE architecture. 

Capabilities include:

  • Continuous authentication and authorization instead of one-time login verification
  • Context-based access decisions incorporating identity, device posture, location, and risk signals
  • Least-privilege access to specific applications, instead of network level access
  • Session monitoring and reverification for sensitive resources

AI Access Security

Globalgig offers visibility and control over how employees interact with generative AI applications. It is applied at the network layer, without requiring application integration, or architectural changes. 

Capabilities include:

  • Real-time monitoring of prompts, uploads, and data exchanges with AI tools
  • Policy enforcement on which AI applications can be accessed and how they can be used
  • Data protection controls that prevent sensitive information from being sent to external AI models
  • Audit trail for AI tool usage across your organization

Privileged Access Management

Governance and protection of privileged and service accounts, and machine identities, delivered through a dedicated identity security platform that is purpose-built for enterprise privileged access management.

Capabilities include:

  • Credential vaulting and rotation for privileged accounts
  • Just-in-time access that eliminates standing privileges
  • Session recording and monitoring for privileged activities
  • Governance of non-human identities, including service accounts, API keys, and AI agents
  • Least-privilege enforcement across human and machine identity estates

Why Globalgig

Identity Is One Layer of Zero Trust

An identity anomaly is not just an identity problem. Over-privileged accounts, unusual access patterns, and compromised credentials are often early indicators of a broader attack. Globalgig integrates identity governance with network access controls, endpoint security, and security operations, so identity-layer events inform detection and response across the architecture.

Governance That Runs at the Speed Your Non-Human Identities Operate

Service accounts, API keys, and AI agents do not work business hours and do not have quarterly access reviews. We manage identity governance as a continuous operational service, monitoring non-human identity behavior, enforcing least privilege, and flagging anomalies in real time, instead of on a review cycle that threat actors may outpace.

One Team Accountable for Identity Across Your Environment

Most companies manage identity services across multiple tools, teams, and review processes, with no single view of who has access and where. We provide a unified identity governance service spanning human users, privileged accounts, and non-human identities under one operational model, with a single team that can answer questions about any identity in your environment.

Frequently
Asked
Questions

How does IoT connectivity create shadow IT risk?

IoT devices frequently connect to enterprise networks outside of formal IT procurement. Operational teams deploy sensors, while your facilities teams add connected equipment. Devices are brought in to solve a specific problem without a security review. Each unmanaged device is a potential vulnerability your security team does not know exists. Globalgig addresses this at the connectivity layer. So, every device managed through Orchestra is visible to your IT team, with usage data, location, and anomaly alerts. Managing IoT connectivity through a single provider means your IT team has a complete picture of what is going on in your network.

What is the difference between network access control and identity security?

Network access control determines if a user or device can connect to the network, or access an application. Identity security services decide what that identity can access once it has been granted, what they can do, and access, as well as whether their level of privilege is appropriate. Both are necessary. Network access prevents unauthorized connections, while identity security services prevent authorized connections from being abused.

What is privileged access management, and why does it matter?

Privileged accounts are administrative accounts with elevated access to systems, configurations, and data. They are the accounts attackers mostly aim to compromise as they enable the most damage. Privileged access management services protect these accounts through credential vaulting, just-in-time access that eliminates standing privileges, and session monitoring that detects misuse. The most significant breaches involve compromised privileged credentials at some point in the attack chain.

What are non-human identities, and why do they need governance?

Non-human identities include service accounts, API keys, automation scripts, and AI agents, as well as any entity that authenticates to a system, without a human involved. Most enterprise environments have more non-human identities than human ones, and most have more privilege than they need. When a service account or AI agent is compromised, the attacker inherits its privileges and can move laterally using legitimate credentials that bypass many detection tools.

Is Identity Security available for organizations that are not yet running SSE or SASE?

Yes, privileged access management and AI access security can be deployed independently of the SSE and SASE architecture. Zero Trust access enforcement is most effective when integrated with SSE, but Identity Security components can be phased in, as the broader security architecture evolves.

What privileged access management platform does Globalgig use, and why?

We deliver privileged access management through CyberArk, the most widely deployed privileged access management platform in the enterprise market.
CyberArk is purpose-built for the governance of privileged and service accounts, and non-human identities, covering credential vaulting, just-in-time access, session monitoring, and machine identity governance. Globalgig uses CyberArk because no other platform matches its depth of capabilities in the privileged access space, and due to its ability to integrate with Palo Alto Networks’ security architecture that we operate across network, endpoint, and identity security.
