Opal

Opal is a security platform that enables organizations to scale least privilege, creating new ways for teams to work smarter. We believe access should be decentralized, self-service, and integrated with the technologies your team already uses. Remove bottlenecks. Delegate access requests to those who have the most context. More context = faster and better decisions. Intelligent automation. Let Opal handle it all, giving access when it matters most, sending automatic reminders, and removing access when no longer needed. Transparency matters. Be on the same page about who approves access, who has access to what, the status of requests, and more. Skip the game of telephone! Companies give out far too much access. Access is granted in a way that is overly coarse and often for an indefinite amount of time. Most companies have painfully manual and inconsistent ways of granting just-in-time access.

Silk Security

Cut through the findings flood, holistically understand risk, automate prioritization, and collaborate on fix remediation — all in one platform. Adoption of cloud, hybrid, and cloud-native applications generates more complexity and scale issues that legacy approaches can't begin to address. Without enough environmental context, security teams struggle to measure and prioritize the risk associated with findings. Duplicate alerts from multiple tools mean compounds the challenge for security teams to prioritize and assign remediation ownership. 60% of the breaches that occur are due to a security alert that the organization knew about, but struggled to map stakeholder responsibility for the fix. Map stakeholder responsibility, enable self-service remediation with actionable recommendations, and facilitate bidirectional collaboration through integration into existing tools and workflows.
