Case Study: Obsidian achieves scalable compliance and granular access control with Pomerium

Pomerium enables Obsidian to scale global logistics and assert compliance

Obsidian Security, a provider of a threat-detection platform for SaaS products, faced the challenge of securing internal applications across multiple cloud environments while meeting strict SOC 2 compliance requirements. They needed a solution that could integrate with their existing identity provider, provide granular access controls, and deliver clear audit trails for access reviews.

By implementing Pomerium, an open-source identity-aware proxy, Obsidian Security gained fine-grained control over employee access. The Pomerium solution integrated seamlessly with their Google Groups and Kubernetes deployment via HELM, providing the necessary traceability for audits. This enabled the company to secure high-value assets and automate access control processes, effectively scaling their global logistics and compliance posture.
