Sonrai Cloud Permissions Firewall vs Veza SSPM

Sonrai Cloud Permissions Firewall monitors privileged permissions for identities across AWS, Azure and GCP. It covers human users, service principals, agents and managed identities, removing sensitive permissions that are no longer used, quarantining inactive role assignments and enforcing default deny. Permissions on Demand routes restricted-access requests through approval in ChatOps and updates the policy afterward. The web service uses read-only, top-level cloud access to collect metadata and does not install cloud agents. Onboarding occurs at the AWS, Azure or GCP organisation level, bringing in every account, subscription or project; controls can then be applied selectively. Sonrai describes unified enforcement and one audit trail across the three clouds. Available options include integrations with Slack, Teams and email, enterprise SSO, just-in-time access, third-party access lockdown, identity quarantine and other remediation controls. Support is provided by email, phone and chat. A 14-day trial requires a business email. Plans list $150 a month for 10–50 accounts and $15,000 a year for startup pricing; 50+ accounts use custom pricing.

Veza SSPM governs identity access, permissions, and configuration risks across SaaS applications in real time. It continuously discovers users, administrators, and service accounts across major SaaS platforms, then flags settings such as missing MFA, exposed OAuth tokens, and open administrator privileges. Role-based context helps identify overprivileged identities, which the product can remediate. Connections with IAM, IGA, and ITSM platforms support issue resolution and automated governance workflows. Veza generates real-time, audit-ready reports describing access governance across SaaS applications. Its integration catalog spans SaaS, identity, cloud, data, and HR systems; examples include Okta, OpenAI, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Workday, and Google Drive. The Open Authorization API provides a route for custom application connections. Veza states that SSPM has SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certifications and complies with GDPR and CCPA. It is offered through web and API access, with pricing and custom demonstrations handled by request.
