Chris Edson demonstrates Tenable Cloud Security's identity-first approach to cloud security, emphasizing that 99% of cloud issues result from mismanaged identities. The platform evaluates net effective permissions across multi-cloud environments by analyzing role policies, IAM policies, and trust relationships. Key features include identity provider integration, toxic combination detection, vulnerability assessment powered by Tenable's database, and context-aware risk scoring. The solution provides detailed remediation guidance for reducing excessive permissions and connects cloud security findings to Tenable's broader exposure management platform.
