Identity Security Solutions.

Detect identity threats, close posture gaps, and prove compliance, continuously, from one platform. Identity is now the primary way attackers get in. Credentials, tokens, and misconfigured permissions have become the shortest path to your most sensitive systems.

8Layers gives security teams a connected set of solutions to see identity risk clearly, respond to threats fast, and stay audit-ready.

Why identity is the new perimeter.

In a cloud-first, remote-first world, the perimeter has dissolved and identity has taken its place. Every user, service account, AI agent, and machine identity is now a potential entry point, and attackers know it.

The challenge is that identity risk is spread across systems that rarely talk to each other: your identity provider, cloud platforms, SaaS apps, and internal directories. Gaps open up between them, and they're exactly where breaches happen.

8Layers' solutions address the full identity lifecycle across three connected disciplines: detecting and responding to identity threats (ITDR), managing identity security posture (ISPM), and automating compliance. Together they give you continuous visibility and control over who can access your environment.

Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR)

Attackers who steal valid credentials don't trigger traditional alarms because they are logged in. ITDR closes that gap by monitoring identity activity for signs of compromise, and responding before an attacker can move laterally.

With 8Layers ITDR, you can turn identity from a blind spot into a defensible layer by correlating behavior and access signals over time, investigating incidents with timelines and causality graphs, responding by killing sessions, revoking tokens, or scrambling credentials, and more.

Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM)

You can't respond to threats you can't see, and most identity risk is created quietly, over-privileged accounts, dormant identities, misconfigurations, and access that was never revoked. ISPM continuously assesses your identity posture, surfaces these risks, and helps you fix them before they're exploited.

8Layers ISPM is a whole inventory of human and non-human identities where it is possible to score and prioritize risks, and guides remediation so your posture keeps improving instead of drifting.

Automated Compliance

Proving compliance shouldn't mean scrambling before every audit. 8Layers automates the evidence collection, monitoring, and reporting that frameworks like ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIS2, and ENS require, mapping your identity controls to the standards you're accountable for and keeping you continuously audit-ready.

One connected approach to identity security.

ITDR, ISPM, and Automated Compliance aren't separate products bolted together, they're three views of the same problem. Your posture (ISPM) tells you where the risk is. Threat detection (ITDR) catches what tries to exploit it. And automated compliance turns the controls you've put in place into continuous, provable evidence.

Because they run on one platform, insight flows between them: a posture gap can inform detection, and a detected threat can highlight a control that needs attention.

Frequently asked questions

Identity security is the practice of protecting the identities, human and machine, that access your systems, along with the permissions attached to them. It spans detecting identity-based threats, managing identity posture and access, and proving that the right controls are in place.

ISPM is proactive: it continuously assesses your identity environment to find and reduce risk before it's exploited. ITDR is responsive: it detects and stops identity-based attacks as they happen. Most organizations need both: posture management to shrink the attack surface, and threat detection to catch what gets through.

Automated compliance continuously collects evidence, monitors your controls, and maps them to the frameworks you need to meet, so instead of preparing for audits manually, you stay audit-ready by default.
