CEO and Customer quote:

“Oleria was created by security operators for operators to propel identity security forward, eliminating the
restrictive limitations of legacy IAM technology and their related manual intensive processes,” said Jim
Alkove, co-founder and CEO of Oleria. “We’ve built the first adaptive identity security product to provide
visibility to both centrally provisioned and de-centrally provisioned access, as well as fine-grained
individual permissions and usage insights.”

“We began seeing value quickly after implementing Oleria Adaptive Security. I was impressed by the
comprehensive visibility we had into our access, including over-provisioned accounts, unintended
access, and our coverage of multi-factor authentication. Oleria’s simple user-friendly experience gave us
both clarity and direction on where to focus our efforts and the tools to easily detect access issues.” -
Mark Carter, CIO and CISO of Vimeo

Elevator pitch:

Today's identity technologies are holding businesses back. We started Oleria because we believe
enterprises shouldn't have to choose between business agility and security.

Today’s approaches fail to reduce the significant security risks caused by over-provisioned and
misconfigured access, while costing us all the fortune to manage access using multiple tools and
enormous human effort.

At Oleria, we're building a solution in the cloud to get all your access in one place adaptively and
autonomously. Oleria Adaptive Security provides first-of-its-kind access visibility across centrally and de-
centrally managed applications and into access usage across all resources – allowing CISOs and their
teams to finally answer the critical questions: Who has access to what? Where did they get it? How are
they using it?

What does Gartner say about you? Why?

Gartner analysts have been actively engaged with Oleria, but nothing has yet been published about
Oleria. We anticipate some exciting news on this front later this year.

Who are your competitors?

Oleria’s biggest competitor today is the status quo. While the issues we are solving have been painful
and persistent for years, no one has yet been able to deliver a solution. So, CISOs and their teams
spend countless hours and resources trying to combat the ever-growing threat of access-related cyber
breaches leveraging a combination of legacy identity and access management systems coupled with
significant manual administration and intervention and are not equipped for today’s threat environment.
