Case Study: Large Wholesale (Atacadão, USD 5B) achieves streamlined GCP credential security and reduced audit time with Segura

How Segura® streamlined cloud access management and achieved unparalleled security and efficiency for over 95,000 employees across 102 stores

Large Wholesale Company, a $5 billion wholesale retailer with over 95,000 employees across 102 stores and 7 distribution centers, faced uncontrolled proliferation of Google Cloud Platform (GCP) credentials. Developers were creating Basic Roles with excessive permissions, and the security team had to manually inspect each GCP project to find and remediate over‑privileged accounts. Segura was engaged to address these cloud permission and CIEM challenges using its Cloud Entitlements capability.

Segura implemented a CIEM filter that automatically consolidated and displayed all identities across connected GCP projects holding Basic Roles, giving the team a real‑time view of over‑privileged credentials. The solution improved operational efficiency and visibility, reduced audit time, enabled faster enforcement of the principle of least privilege, and lowered the company’s cloud security risk.
