PlainID releases today its Authorization-as-a-Service, a SaaS-enabled Authorization Platform designed to solve enterprise challenges associated with advanced access control. The company’s cloud-first, Authorization-as-a-Service Platform has been designed for scale and to meet the performance demands of large global companies.
Additionally, PlainID releases several PlainID Authorizers including Data Authorizers for Snowflake, Google BigQuery, Denodo and SDK for SQL filtering.
PlainID Authorizers allow authorization policies to provide advanced data security by enforcing access points across a distributed computing environment, including authorization for API gateways, microservices and data.
The release also introduces PlainID’s powerful Visual Policy Map that enables administrators to visualize the impacts of policies, resulting in a better understanding of the relationships between who can access what and when.
PlainID helps businesses advance and modernize by connecting people with the digital assets they need to do their jobs, accomplish tasks at scale and conduct digital commerce. By making authorization decisions simple, smart, granular and dynamic, PlainID helps enterprises control who can access what, when and how under whose authority.
“As market adoption for authorization is driven by the convergence of traditional identity and access management and cybersecurity requirements, PlainID has enjoyed tremendous year-over-year growth,” said Gal Helemski, chief technology officer, chief product officer, and co-founder, PlainID. “In the future, we believe that PlainID will be behind every connection between an identity and a digital service: monitoring, securing, and validating it. Authorization is the foundation of security: it’s the last mile that governs what people actually can do.”
Powered by policy-based access control (PBAC), leading-edge features include PlainID’s Centralized Management Dashboard, which provides users the ability to create and manage enterprise-wide authorization policies from a central point while maintaining distributed enforcement capabilities. The out-of-the-box Authorizers included address common authorization patterns for API gateways, microservices, data, and applications.
