About

Otterize is a platform for automating workload Identity and Access Management (IAM) for workloads on Kubernetes. It offers a declarative and zero-trust approach to access management, empowering organizations to streamline workload IAM while ensuring maximum security. The company's solution helps DevOps and platform engineers automate the secure connection of services to each other and their infrastructures. Otterize's product automatically determines minimally required access for each workload, specifies it using intent-based access control (IBAC), and then automatically configures infrastructure and networks to allow only the minimal required access.
