Asset Discovery
Trident discovers 200+ cloud resource types — EC2, Lambda, EKS, S3, RDS,
DynamoDB, IAM roles, Kubernetes pods, and more — within 15 minutes of
creation, with no agents or network changes required.
Identity Analysis
Trident resolves effective permissions, not just attached policies.
It follows role chains, instance profiles, and workload identities to
show you what an identity can actually reach at query time.
Attack Paths
The toxic combo engine runs a breadth-first search across the security
graph to surface multi-hop exploit chains ranked by real exploitability
— confirmed with read-only IAM policy simulation before they reach you.
How it works
Connect your cloud accounts
You grant Trident a read-only IAM role (or equivalent) for each provider.
No agents are installed, no network changes are needed, and onboarding
takes under five minutes. See Connecting cloud accounts.
Trident builds the security graph
Trident scans your environment and assembles a live graph of assets,
IAM identities, data stores, and the typed edges that connect them —
such as
assumes_role, reaches, stores, and grants.The toxic combo engine finds attack paths
Trident runs named detection rules and a graph traversal across every
path in the security graph. It looks for combinations of risk factors
that are low-severity individually but critical together — for example,
a prompt-injectable AI agent that runs as a privileged IAM role with
access to a sensitive datastore.
What makes Trident different
Most cloud security tools see cloud resources and AI agents as separate surfaces. Trident connects them. Every AI agent you monitor with Trident is linked to the cloud workload it runs on, the IAM role that workload assumes, and the data stores that role can reach. This means a finding like prompt injection in a customer-facing agent doesn’t stay isolated — Trident traces the full chain: the injection exploits the agent’s tool-calling behavior, the agent executes as a privileged IAM role, and that role hass3:GetObject on a bucket tagged sensitivity:HIGH. Trident surfaces the entire path, confirms exploitability with a read-only policy simulation, and proposes a fix.
