Clutch Security

Clutch is the industry's first Universal Non-Human Identity Security Platform, purpose-built for the enterprise. It offers complete visibility through a contextualized inventory, laying the foundation for robust NHI security - including lifecycle governance, risk and posture management, and real-time detection and response. Clutch empowers security teams to extend the same Zero Trust approach they use for human identities to Non-Human Identities by continuously monitoring and validating each NHI's usage, and promoting the adoption of ephemeral identities, which render compromised NHIs useless to attackers. This proactive strategy eliminates security gaps, reduces operational overhead, and enables teams to operate independently and efficiently, without friction. As NHIs like API keys, service accounts, tokens, and secrets rapidly scale, enterprises face growing challenges in securing and managing them. These identities, dispersed across cloud platforms, SaaS applications, and on-premises systems, often hold critical privileges but lack the inherent controls of human identities. This lack of oversight creates visibility gaps, making effective monitoring and security difficult. As a result, over-privileged and outdated NHIs proliferate, significantly increasing the risk of security breaches and complicating incident detection and response. Clutch provides a comprehensive solution to these challenges with its Universal NHI Security Platform. By aggregating and correlating data from various sources, Clutch offers unparalleled visibility with a detailed inventory. Clutch's Identity Lineage™ enriches each NHI with context, including origin, associated people, storage location, consumers, and accessed resources. The platform ensures effective lifecycle management and enhances security posture by surfacing, prioritizing, and offering actionable playbooks for NHI risk mitigation. Its real-time detection and response capabilities enable swift incident containment and resolution, minimizing the blast radius of potential breaches. Clutch offers unique, proactive Zero Trust protection mechanisms and an ephemeral approach that shields mission-critical NHIs, eliminating the need for traditional NHI rotation. Even frequent rotation practices leave gaps that attackers can exploit, creating a false sense of security. Clutch facilitates continuous monitoring and validation of NHIs across the enterprise, ensuring only legitimate entities can access them. By adopting ephemeral identities, where possible, the attack surface is drastically reduced. This approach not only provides unparalleled protection but also enhances efficiency by removing the need for resource-intensive rotations. It ensures five-nines uptime availability, allowing security teams to operate independently without relying on IT or Engineering. Ultimately, Clutch enables security teams to focus on strategic initiatives rather than routine operations, becoming true business enablers
