Sola for Identity Security
Prompts and use cases for Identity Security & Access Analysis
Identity risk is distributed across multiple platforms, making cross-system visibility essential.
Sola connects identity data across your identity providers, cloud platforms, and SaaS applications to surface access risks, credential misuse, and privilege issues that no single tool sees on its own.
This page explains the key concepts behind Identity Security and Access Analysis, what it is, why it matters, and how Sola helps you investigate it.
Get started with these below ready-made Ask and Build prompts, or the Prompt library, both available directly in the Sola chat interface.
Ask: Find identity and access risks
Copy this prompt into Sola AI to get started:
I want to understand identity-related security risks across my systems. Guide me to identify which identity data source I should connect first - such as Okta, AWS, Google Workspace, or GitHub - or if I already have one connected, ask me which to use. Then help me discover issues like MFA gaps, dormant accounts, privilege creep, or token misuse that could lead to unauthorized access. Guide me to the best next step to quickly experience Sola's value. Do this as an interactive conversation, guide me one step at a time, avoid long explanations upfront, and pause for my response. Build: Track identity and access risks
Copy this prompt into Sola AI to get started:
I want to build an app that continuously monitors identity and access risks across my systems. Guide me to identify which identity platforms I should connect first - such as Okta, AWS IAM, Google Workspace, or GitHub - or if I already have one connected, ask me which to use. Then help me build queries to detect issues like MFA gaps, dormant accounts, privilege creep, and token misuse, create canvases showing access patterns over time, and set up alerts for risky identity changes. Guide me to the best next step to quickly experience Sola's value. Do this as an interactive conversation, guide me one step at a time, avoid long explanations upfront, and pause for my response.What is Identity Security & Access Analysis?
Identity security is the practice of ensuring that the right people have the right access to the right resources. It covers authentication, authorization, and the full lifecycle of user accounts, service accounts, and machine identities across cloud and SaaS systems.
In simple terms, identity security helps answer the question: "Who has access to what, should they, and what is the impact of an identity takeover?"
Risks addressed include:
MFA gaps and weak authentication across cloud, SaaS, and identity providers.
Dormant or orphaned accounts with active permissions.
Excessive privileges inconsistent with a user's role or team.
Compromised credentials and suspicious login patterns.
Service accounts and machine identities with uncontrolled access or no documented owner.
Why is Identity Security important
Identity is the #1 initial access vector in modern attacks.
A single compromised credential or misconfigured permission can give an attacker access to everything connected to it. The risk is rarely a single account, it is the chain of permissions across systems that creates real exposure.
Investigating identity risk requires correlating data across identity providers, cloud platforms, and SaaS applications. Without a unified view, gaps go undetected.
Identity security with Sola
Sola's graph model resolves the same person across all connected identity systems and surfaces cross-system privilege risks that siloed tools can potentially miss.
With Sola, you can:
Correlate identity data across identity providers, cloud platforms, and SaaS applications into a single risk view.
Detect MFA gaps, stale accounts, and excessive privileges across all connected systems.
Surface compromise signals including failed logins, new devices, token creation, and privilege escalation.
Audit service accounts and machine identities for missing controls or excessive permissions.
Map privilege chains to identify lateral movement paths before they are exploited.
