Basil Security Unveils Policy-as-Code Platform for Cybersecurity and Audits

World’s first distributed, stateful security policy enforcement
solution based on attribute-based access control with unified, immutable
audit logging

SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–lt;a href=”https://twitter.com/hashtag/blockchain?src=hash” target=”_blank”gt;#blockchainlt;/agt;–Basil Security Inc., the Zero Trust Operations company,
announced general availability of the world’s first policy-as-code
platform that provides stateful security policy enforcement over
arbitrary code execution, APIs, and data access. Basil can be used to
prevent errors, block insider cyberattacks, and guarantee accountability.

“Preventing errors and insider cyberattacks beats detecting and
remediating security problems after the fact,” said Ron Herardian, Basil
Security’s CEO. “Multi-party approvals, non-repudiation, and audit time
travel set new standards for cybersecurity, and for security and
compliance audits. Basil is the next evolutionary step for highly secure
environments and enterprises in regulated industries.”

Nearly one-third of all cyberattacks are insider attacks and nearly half
of all data breaches are caused by errors or malicious insiders. At the
same time, new technologies are needed to meet requirements stemming
from regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Security and regulatory
challenges are greatly amplified in hybrid cloud and multi-cloud
environments.

Traditional identity and access management (IAM) solutions that use
role-based access control (RBAC) ensure that the right people have
access to the right services. As such, these solutions do not, at a
granular level, control code execution, API calls, or data access. Basil
integrates with and extends existing IAM capabilities with
next-generation attribute-based access control (ABAC). Using Basil,
human-readable security policies are proactively enforced. Basil can
control arbitrary code execution, APIs, and data access, and adds
multi-party approval, non-repudiation, immutable, unified audit logging,
and other new capabilities.

Basil operates at the infrastructure, platform, and application levels
across all cloud-based environments. It is ideal for security and
regulatory audits, digital forensic investigations and attribution, and
DevSecOps—including development and operations (DevOps), and continuous
integration and delivery (CI/CD). Together with ABAC, immutable, unified
audit logging provides selective visibility to internal and external
auditors, as well as to end users, including the ability to audit prior
points in time.

Basil nodes can be deployed in any data center or cloud environment.
Pricing is per node.
