Veza provides a cloud-based platform focused on identity access management (IAM) for organizations. Its main product, the Veza Access Control Platform, offers a detailed view of who has access to various resources within a company, enabling real-time monitoring of access levels and potential identity threats. The platform is particularly useful for large enterprises with complex cloud environments, as it integrates with all enterprise systems to give a comprehensive overview of access permissions. This is facilitated by an Authorization Graph that organizes authorization data for real-time analysis. Veza operates on a subscription model, allowing clients to pay a recurring fee for the service, which can scale with their needs. Additionally, the platform automates access reviews and manages the identity lifecycle, reducing administrative tasks and downtime. Veza's credibility is highlighted by its partnership with Blackstone, showcasing its strong presence in the market.
