ISO 27001 is the globally recognized standard for information security management, providing organizations with a structured, risk-based framework to protect sensitive data and adapt to evolving threats. For enterprises operating in cloud-first, SaaS-driven environments, compliance requires robust identity governance, tight access controls, and continuous risk monitoring, across both human and non-human identities (NHIs).

Andromeda Security delivers an AI-powered identity security platform that aligns seamlessly with ISO 27001’s requirements. By correlating data-centric insights with advanced risk models, Andromeda enables organizations to unify fragmented identity data, eliminate excessive privileges, and maintain compliance through automated, context-aware controls.

 

Core Compliance Capabilities

  • Least Standing Privilege (LSP) Enforcement – Eliminates high-risk standing access by ensuring identities hold only the permissions they actively need.

  • Just-in-Time (JIT) Privileged Access – Grants time-bound, risk-evaluated access to critical systems, reducing the attack surface without slowing operations.

  • Non-Human Identity Security – Full lifecycle governance of service accounts, API keys, and machine credentials to prevent credential sprawl and orphaned accounts.

  • Access Control & Governance – Continuous access reviews, automated provisioning/deprovisioning, and unified policy enforcement across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
