Cloud infrastructure entitlement management (CIEM) is the procedure of handling privileges and identities in cloud environments. The CIEM aims to establish the existence of access entitlements in cloud and multi-cloud environments, as well as identify and mitigate risks associated with authorizations that provide a greater level of access.

The CIEM market is growing due to increasing speed and flexibility in innovation for DevOps, which is driving the demand. Moreover, the growth of this market is expected to be driven by the increasing cybersecurity threats that underscore secure access management's importance. The market growth is hindered by concerns about data security & confidentiality. According to an industry expert, 75% of cloud security failures are a result of insufficient management of identities, access, and privileges by 2023.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the global CIEM market. The importance of robust access controls was reinforced by the rapid shift to work remotely and increasing reliance on cloud services. The demand for entitlement management solutions increased despite the macroeconomic uncertainties that affect procurement decisions.
