Zilla is a SaaS platform for identity security and compliance. It gives detailed, automated visibility into who has access to what, and provides the tools to automate reviews and remediate inappropriate access and security.
Zilla also acts as the system of record you need to show and maintain compliance with regulations like SOX, HIPAA, GLBA, FFIEC and SOC 2.
It’s the only solution that integrates with all SaaS applications, cloud platforms, and on-premises systems to deliver a comprehensive, single source of truth for identity security and compliance.
