Veza expands Access AI and launches Access AuthZ to unify and automate identity security

Veza expands Access AI and launches Access AuthZ to unify and automate identity security. Data security platform company Veza Inc. today announced a major expansion of its Access AI platform that extends the power of artificial intelligence to govern and secure all enterprise identities, and also introduced Access AuthZ to automate user provisioning and deprovisioning. The updates to Veza's Access AI solution enable natural language explainability and intuitive query analysis for enterprise identity management. Key features include Access AI for Access Search, Universal Search, Query Explainability and Access Reviews, which simplify oversight and speed up access reviews. With the update, security teams can now write natural language queries via the Query Builder to manage access responsibly. The release seeks to assist enterprises that are embracing AI agents, complex AI data pipelines and large-scale automation. With the release, Veza says it is delivering the first platform designed to protect these new identity types while unifying permissions, authorization data and activity across the enterprise. "Identity is the frontline of cybersecurity and AI agent adoption is multiplying the number of identities that enterprises must control," said co-founder and Chief Executive Tarun Thakur. "With Access AI, Veza gives organizations the intelligence to secure both human and nonhuman identities before attackers can exploit blind spots." The updated Access AI platform is complemented with Veza's new Access AuthZ, which automates user provisioning and deprovisioning initiated from custom apps, legacy identity governance and administration platforms and information technology service management systems. Access AuthZ is designed to help organizations close the "last mile" of access automation with broad support for identity providers, cloud platforms, databases, developer tools and business apps, as well as custom applications using Veza's Open Authorization application programming interface "Write" framework. The updated platform and the launch of Access AuthZ come as Veza has seen strong growth, with the company's platform having processed 20 billion entitlements across more than 300 integrations. Notably, 34% of which were built by customers or third parties through Veza's Open Authorization API. Recent integrations include CyberArk, Oracle HCM, SAP SuccessFactors and Microsoft 365. Veza is a venture capital-backed startup that has raised approximately $235 million over four rounds, including rounds of $108 million in April and $110 million in 2022. Investors in the company include New Enterprise Associates Inc., Accel Partners LP, Google Ventures, True Ventures LP, Norwest Venture Partners LP and Ballistic Ventures. Image: Veza.
