New

Improved

Cremit expands its data protection capabilities to another major cloud collaboration platform and enhances visibility into detected Non-Human Identities (NHIs). We are excited to introduce sensitive information scanning for Google Drive and a new scanner/viewer feature that provides more detailed information about detected NHIs.

โœจ New Features

  1. Google Drive Integration: Securely connect your Google Drive environment to scan for sensitive information (API keys, PII, financial data, etc.) within documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and other file types stored in personal and shared drives.

  2. NHI Detection Details Viewer/Scanner: When a Non-Human Identity is detected, you can now access a more detailed view. This enhanced "scanner" interface provides deeper insights into the attributes and metadata of the specific NHI found, such as its type, potential permissions (if inferable), and last usage hints from context, allowing for more informed risk assessment.

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Improvements

  • Unified Risk Dashboard Enhancements: Added new widgets and filtering options to incorporate findings from Google Drive and to better display the enriched NHI details. This provides a more holistic view of risks across all integrated platforms.

  • Optimized Scanning for Cloud Storage: Improved scanning speed and resource utilization for cloud-based drives like Google Drive and S3, especially for large volumes of data.

๐Ÿ“ฃ What's Next? In July, we plan to release an update focused on providing comprehensive NHI inventory visibility, giving you a clearer picture of all non-human identities across your scanned assets. We will also be introducing AWS EBS (Elastic Block Store) volume scanning for sensitive information. Stay tuned!
