8Layers provides Cloud Identity Threat Detection and Response (CITDR) solutions focused on protecting both human and non-human identities in cloud environments. The platform covers the complete Cloud Identities Incident Response Lifecycle across four stages: preparation, detection, analysis, and response. The company's preparation capabilities include Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) to reduce attack surface exposure and compliance features aligned with regulatory standards such as CISA and ISO27001. For detection, 8Layers offers real-time monitoring for privilege escalations, credential misuse, and anomalous user activities without temporal scope limitations. The platform enriches alerts by combining internal and external data sources to provide contextual intelligence. The analysis component incorporates User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) to identify complex behavior patterns, dynamic risk scoring to differentiate between anomalies and actual risks, and entity profiling to provide comprehensive visibility into identity activities. For response, the platform emphasizes high-fidelity detections with low false positive rates and includes automated reaction capabilities to reduce dwell time and mean time to respond (MTTR). 8Layers integrates with major identity providers including AWS IAM, Google, Microsoft Entra ID, and Okta. The platform utilizes machine learning models for threat detection and enriches identity data with external threat intelligence sources including MISP, OpenCTI, Abusix, and SpyCloud. The solution is positioned to complement existing security operations center (SOC) tools such as SIEM, EDR, and NDR systems.
