Silverfort Identity Security Platform

Compares granted permissions against observed usage to identify entitlements that exceed what an identity actually needs, candidates for right-sizing or revocation.

Scores each identity by aggregated risk signals (excessive permissions, stale credentials, anomalous access patterns, MFA gaps) to prioritize remediation effort.

Detects indicators of identity compromise and attack activity (anomalous login sequences, MFA fatigue patterns, impossible travel), at the posture layer, enabling detection of active attacks alongside the static risk posture view. Distinct from EDR identity threat detection, which operates as real-time behavioral detection during an active attack.

Discovers service accounts, OAuth apps, API keys, JWT tokens, and Kubernetes service accounts alongside human accounts, mapping the complete identity population.

Flags dormant and zombie accounts, weak access policies, and identity misconfigurations (such as missing MFA or risky discretionary access) so they can be cleaned up before attackers use them.

Evaluates contextual risk signals (device fingerprint, geolocation, IP reputation, behavioral anomaly) at each authentication and step-up challenge request, applying stronger authentication when risk is elevated.

Provides phishing-resistant MFA such as FIDO2 and X.509, with protections against compromised passwords and common MFA attacks.

Defines and enforces authorization policies that decide which users and machines can access which applications and APIs, evaluated at runtime alongside authentication.

Detects and responds to identity threats, including out-of-the-box XDR integrations.

Provides access management functions for machines, workloads, services and agentic AI.

Enforces externalized, fine-grained authorization policy using ABAC or RBAC for applications and APIs.

Time-bound, on-demand granting of privileged access that removes standing privilege.

Creates net-new permissions per need and removes them after a time-bound session, eliminating standing privileged accounts.

Automated discovery and onboarding of privileged accounts across on-premises and cloud environments.

Analyzes privilege patterns, misconfigurations and access anomalies to detect and respond to privileged threats.

Provides role-based administration and centralized policy management for controlling access to privileged credentials and actions.

Analyzes identity telemetry (authentication events, access patterns, privilege use) in real time with behavioral baselines and risk scoring; leading implementations detect identity attacks in sub-second time.

Executes platform-native response actions to active identity attacks - session revocation, credential reset, account isolation, step-up authentication - automatically or with analyst approval.

Detects attacks against the IAM infrastructure itself - directories, identity providers, federation, and IAM configurations - including admin credential misuse and manipulation of identity controls.

Detects credential-abuse techniques that defeat authentication controls, including MFA circumvention, session hijacking, and forged or replayed tokens.
