Veza

Core Focus

A full-suite IGA platform built to control access and automate governance across hybrid environments.

Veza is an ISPM platform designed to provide visibility into cloud identity and access.

Use Case

Cross-team platform built for security, IT, GRC, and end users to manage the identity lifecycle, just-in-time-access, and access reviews.

Primarily designed for security teams as a "read-only" cloud hygiene tool.

On-Prem Support

Deep, bidirectional connectors for both on-prem and cloud environments.

Poor integration with complex on-premises and homegrown systems.

Governance Features

Complete governance solution with direct provisioning, robust multistep policies, and no-code lifecycle automations.

Limited. Lacks robust provisioning and automated lifecycle workflows.

End-User Experience

Comprehensive, intuitive experience in Slack, MS Teams, CLI, and web app for all users.

Not designed for end users. Lacks full-featured Slack, MS Teams, and CLI integrations.

Extensibility

Modern API, configurable policies, and a dedicated Terraform provider.

Limited policy configuration and no Terraform provider.

Top 5 reasons security leaders prefer C1

Time to value

“The biggest ROI we have seen is in time. We have communicated to leadership and management our estimates and I'm very confident that the tool pays for itself.”

Roberto Mateo, VP of It Business Operations

Full visibility and control

“A huge win for me is the overall visibility. I don’t have to log into ten different places to figure out who has access to what – I can just go to C1.”

Paul Yoo, Head of Security Platform

Simple, intuitive design

“One day you requested AWS access through IT tickets. The next day you didn’t. We didn’t have to roll it out in stages — just a clean cutover.”

Stephen Darling, Staff Infrastructure Engineer

Committed to innovation

“None of the other options in the market were simple for us. C1 was incredibly inquisitive, collaborative, iterative, and innovative.”

Tim Lisko, Director of Product and Infrastructure Security

Real security impact

“We’ve appreciably improved our security posture without spending a bunch of time and money, which is a huge benefit for our customers.”

Matthew Sullivan, Infrastructure Security Team Leader
