Advent One Automation-as-a-Service
Advent One has developed an automated security remediation offering using Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform playbooks written for Tenable.AD. Advent One recommends and implements this solution through their security and risk assessment services.
As an organisation’s IT infrastructure grows in complexity and scale, so too does the role of the IT team.
Today’s IT professionals must complete a myriad of daily tasks, many of which are urgent. Identity management is particularly time-consuming for most IT teams—whether it’s setting up new accounts, manually searching for and removing redundant accounts, or defining and setting access privileges.
And when things get busy, it’s often one of the areas that gets sidelined in favour of more critical tasks. When identity management is de-prioritised, it’s very easy for inactive accounts to pile up, resulting in sizable security and compliance gaps. A lack of robust identity management can also mean the organisation is paying far more for its per-user software licenses than is necessary. While there are plenty of solutions which alert IT teams to identity management problems in their infrastructure, there are few which offer effective, end-to-end resolution.
This is where Advent One comes in.
Advent One can evolve your organisation’s approach to identity management by providing a seamless, end-to-end solution. This incorporates both Tenable Identity Exposure — for the rapid, reliable monitoring and identification of any security or identity issues — and Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform, which enables their automated resolution.
This solution is currently available in Australia and New Zealand
- Continuous monitoring and Automated resolution
Tenable Identity Exposure ensures 24/7 monitoring of your infrastructure, and immediately alerts you to identity issues which need resolving. This could include the presence of unused (‘sleeper’) accounts or illegitimate requests for additional access privileges.
Once an issue has been detected, Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform enables rapid and accurate remediation, as per your organisation’s processes, without necessarily involving IT staff.
- Rapid onboarding and Quick time to value
Setting up new employee identities, and configuring access privileges can be largely automated, which frees your IT team to focus on other initiatives. Our pre-existing playbooks offer a rapid way to automate your identity management processes, without the need to create new playbooks from scratch.
- Reduced workload and Enhanced Security
Free your IT teams from error-prone, time-consuming tasks, allowing them to focus on innovation. Shutting down redundant user accounts, and ensuring the correct level of permissions, removes the risk of them being leveraged by cybercriminals.
