SGNL's modern Privileged Identity Management system eliminates standing access to critical systems by granting and revoking contextual access in real time, drastically reducing the potential impact of a breach. By incorporating context-based intelligence, SGNL prevents attackers—leveraging compromised credentials or other means—from freely navigating cloud applications like Azure, AWS, GitHub, and Salesforce, as well as on-prem systems.

That's why global enterprises and fast-growing mid-market companies alike are turning to SGNL to reduce their identity attack surfaces and secure critical systems. Founded in 2021, SGNL is backed by top security technology investors, including Cisco Ventures, Costanoa Ventures, Fika Ventures, M12 / Microsoft's Venture Fund, Moonshots Capital, and Resolute Ventures.
