Identity Meets Data Security: Unlock Real-Time Access Intelligence with Aurva AccessIQ

The Challenge: Cloud Permissions Chaos in a Growing Landscape.

Data security has become increasingly complex as organizations transition to the cloud, amplifying the challenge of managing permissions and access. Misconfigured permissions pose significant risks, yet simple questions like "Who is granted access to a data asset?" or "How much access is truly necessary?" often remain unanswered.

Even minor oversights—such as an over-permissive role or a dormant identity—can accumulate over time, leaving sensitive data vulnerable to potential threats.

As the attack surface expands, so do compliance pressures. Regulatory frameworks like GDPR, SOC 2, and DPDPA demand not only visibility into permissions but also proof that access is appropriately aligned with actual needs. Traditional IAM tools, with their focus on static configurations, often fail to provide insights into how permissions are used in practice.

At Aurva, we’ve been closely monitoring these challenges. While our platform already helps teams understand who accessed what and when, we recognized the need to address the root causes of risk—namely, unnecessary permissions and misaligned identities.

AccessIQ: Where Visibility Meets Control

Permissions are origin of all interactions in the system. What teams need is a tool that bridges the gap between who can access data and who is actually accessing it.

That’s why we built AccessIQ — a powerful addition to our platforms designed to help teams gain complete visibility into data access patterns, permissions, and anomalies—all in one place.
