SGNL was founded in 2021 by product and engineering leaders from companies such as Google, Okta, and Microsoft to push the boundaries of what is possible in the enterprise authorization space. We help enterprise companies to make sense of access to sensitive information and ensure the trust of their customers.
SGNL offers an integrated access service for organizations to have a single pane to manage authorization based on role, context, and justification, remediate authorization requests, and prevent anomalous user behavior through modeling expected user behavior across applications.
