Case Study: Latch achieves least-privilege cloud security and saves analyst time with Tenable Cloud Security

Latch saves hours of time and adds the equivalent of 3 to 4 analysts with Tenable

Latch, a company that makes spaces better places to live and work, faced the challenge of gaining full visibility into AWS identity risks and enforcing the principle of least privilege across its cloud environment. To better inform its cloud security and site reliability teams and build security into new services early on, Latch needed a solution for granular risk insight and automated policy management. After evaluating various tools, they chose Tenable Cloud Security from Tenable Networks.

By implementing Tenable Cloud Security, Latch automated the analysis of AWS IAM policies and the generation of least-privilege policies for new services. The solution from Tenable provided granular visualization of risks and integrated with their workflows through Jira and Terraform. This saved Latch hours of time and the headcount equivalent of three to four additional security analysts, allowing the team to focus on architecture reviews and proactive security.
