Andromeda Security’s vision is simple but bold: ensure that no identity compromise, human or non-human, results in a breach. By unifying fragmented identity data sources and continuously enforcing least privilege access, Andromeda enables organizations to scale securely across cloud and SaaS environments without slowing down business operations.

Key capabilities:

• Collects configuration and activity data from IdPs, cloud providers, SaaS apps, and HR systems.

• Builds an identity-resource graph that forms a central data lake of all identities and attributes.

• Applies ML-driven analytics to continuously detect risks, generate insights, and drive automation.

• Automates IAM tasks to reduce attack surface while improving agility.

About ISO 27001

ISO 27001 is the global standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS). It establishes a framework for identifying risks, protecting sensitive data, and continuously improving security. Its critical components include:

• Strategic Planning: Security policies and compliance roadmaps.

• Threat Analysis: Ongoing risk identification and assessment.

• Protective Measures: Implementing safeguards for confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

• Operational Excellence: Continuous monitoring and process improvements.

• Documentation Management: Policies, procedures, and audit records.

• Quality Assurance & Executive Oversight: Regular reviews and leadership accountability.

Andromeda Modules That Drive ISO 27001 Compliance

1. Least Standing Privilege (LSP)

• Continuously enforces the principle of least privilege.

• Dynamically adjusts user permissions based on usage and risk.

• Categorizes permissions into frequently used low/high risk, infrequent, and unused.

• Excess or stale permissions are removed and redirected through Just-in-Time requests.

2. Just-in-Time (JIT) Privileged Access

• Eliminates standing privileges by provisioning temporary, task-based access.

• Access is risk- and context-aware, with anomaly detection and human-in-the-loop review.

• Automatically revokes privileges after use, shrinking the attack window.

• Post-session analysis detects misuse or suspicious activity.

3. Non-Human Identity (NHI) Management

• Discovers, classifies, and governs all machine identities across cloud workloads, Kubernetes, and SaaS.

• Enforces LSP for machine accounts, ensuring they only have minimal, well-defined rights.

• Tracks inactive or orphaned identities, stale keys, and privilege drift.

• Monitors privileged NHIs to prevent misuse or lateral movement.

ISO 27001 Controls Checklist (Andromeda Alignment)

The Bottom Line

Andromeda Security is more than a compliance tool, it’s a continuous assurance platform. By combining LSP, JIT privileged access, and non-human identity management, it operationalizes ISO 27001 controls across complex, multi-cloud estates.

This means:

• Fewer audit findings.

• Stronger insurance posture.

• Reduced breach risk from over-privileged identities.

• Continuous compliance, not point-in-time certification.

With Andromeda, ISO 27001 isn’t a checkbox exercise, it’s a living, adaptive defense strategy.
