Microsoft Defender for Cloud's integration with Microsoft Entra Permissions Management provides a Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM) security model that helps organizations manage and control user access and entitlements in their cloud infrastructure. CIEM is a critical component of the Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) solution that provides visibility into who or what has access to specific resources. It ensures that access rights adhere to the principle of least privilege (PoLP), where users or workload identities, such as apps and services, receive only the minimum levels of access necessary to perform their tasks. CIEM also helps organizations to monitor and manage permissions across multiple cloud environments, including Azure, AWS, and GCP.
