Overview
Grip Security focuses on SaaS identity risk management, discovering every SaaS application used across an organization along with the identities and access tied to each one. Founded in 2021 in Tel Aviv, it treats the SaaS estate as the modern identity attack surface and works to bring shadow SaaS, dormant accounts, and unmanaged access under control. It is closer to SaaS security posture and identity governance than to AD-centric detection. See what ITDR is and why it matters for the category boundary.
What it is good at
Complete SaaS discovery and identity risk prioritization are the strengths. Grip maps the full SaaS footprint, including apps that never went through SSO, then scores and prioritizes risk across users, credentials, and access so teams can focus remediation. It supports offboarding, credential hygiene, and reducing the sprawl of dormant and over-privileged SaaS access, which is exactly where a lot of breaches now originate.
Where it falls short
It centers on SaaS, so on-prem and AD-specific detection are outside its core, and it does not provide provisioning, full lifecycle management, or directory recovery. Teams wanting AD-focused ITDR, deep behavioral attack detection, or a network-layer view will need other tools. It is a posture-and-governance play for the SaaS surface rather than a runtime engine for the whole estate.
Pricing
Subscription and quote-based, scaling with users and discovered SaaS. Model it with the TCO calculator.
Best for, and who should look elsewhere
A strong fit for teams discovering and governing SaaS identity risk and shadow SaaS, and security functions managing the full SaaS identity attack surface. Look elsewhere if you want AD-focused ITDR or provisioning and lifecycle. Compare with Nudge Security, Push Security, AuthMind.
Bottom line
A strong fit for governing the SaaS identity attack surface, best for teams whose risk lives in shadow SaaS and unmanaged access rather than on-prem AD. See the ITDR vendor directory.
