# Least Privilege Enforcement

Right-size NHI permissions by identifying overprivileged identities and providing actionable recommendations for privilege reduction.

## The Problem

NHIs accumulate excessive permissions over time

No visibility into which permissions are actually being used

Manual privilege reviews are time-intensive and error-prone

**Clutch's Solution**  
Automatically analyzes NHI permission usage to identify overprivileged identities and provides specific remediation recommendations.

### The Challenge

**For CISOs**  
Overprivileged identities represent one of your largest attack surfaces, but manually reviewing thousands of NHIs and their permissions is impractical and error-prone.

**For Security Teams**  
You know NHIs have too many permissions, but determining which ones are actually needed requires deep analysis of usage patterns across multiple systems.

**Real-world scenario**  
A service account has admin access to 50 AWS services but only uses 3. Which permissions can be safely removed? Traditional tools can't answer this question.
