JumpCloud acquires Stack Identity paving the way for identity-first security

JumpCloud is continuing its identity-first momentum by acquiring Stack Identity – a next-generation identity security and access visibility platform.

This acquisition strengthens JumpCloud’s identity-first access management solution.

Stack Identity offers cutting-edge data analytics technology helping reduce key risks in securing workforce access – especially in remote or hybrid work. The technology deepens JumpCloud’s existing and planned capabilities in: 

  • Identity Governance and Administration (IGA)
  • Privilege Access Management (PAM)
  • Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM)
  • Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR)
  • Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM)

Greg Keller, co-founder and CTO officer, JumpCloud, said: “Stack Identity’s world-class team and advanced data analytics technology will accelerate our ability to productize the billions of data signals our platform generates each month. This will enable new forms of access control, improved identity visibility, and assurance that the right people have the correct access and entitlements every time.”

JumpCloud will leverage Stack Identity’s expertise in: 

  • Enhanced visibility and control over access across IT, cloud infrastructure, and SaaS applications.
  • Streamlined deployment of least privilege access across the organisation.
  • Assurance that only the right individuals access the necessary resources.
  • Accelerated delivery of just-in-time (JIT) access to cloud, SaaS, and on-premises resources.
  • Tools that enable IT admins to provide just-enough access (JEA) to prevent over-entitlement.
  • Advanced detection capabilities to identify and mitigate access anomalies.

 Sanjay Kale, co-founder, Stack Identity, said: “Together, we are creating a unified way to protect organisations in today’s complex security landscape.”
