## Overview
Stream Security, formerly Lightlytics, focuses on real-time cloud detection and response, modeling cloud infrastructure and its relationships as they change. Its identity and entitlement analysis is part of understanding cloud risk in motion.

## What it is good at
Its real-time model of cloud state connects identity and permission changes to their impact on exposure, helping teams see how a new role or policy affects access and blast radius immediately, rather than in a periodic scan.

## Where it falls short
As a younger vendor, it has a smaller footprint than the major CNAPP platforms, and its CIEM is part of a broader cloud detection story rather than a dedicated entitlement suite.

## Pricing
Quote-based.

## Best for, and who should look elsewhere
Choose Stream Security for real-time cloud detection with entitlement context. Look elsewhere for an established, broad CNAPP.

## Bottom line
A real-time cloud detection platform that brings entitlement change into live risk analysis, one to watch.
