Detecting compromised cloud-identity access information

Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for identifying potentially compromised cloud-based access information. The systems and methods include providing a unique signature for insertion into application programming interface (API) communications to be sent from a network resource to a cloud application executable in a cloud environment. The unique signature can be associated with an access token that a particular identity can use to request access to the cloud application. The systems and methods include accessing a log associated with the cloud environment, identifying the unique signature and the access token using information in the log, accessing a trusted validation resource storing signature information associated with the access token, determining whether the unique signature is valid, and determining whether the access token is potentially compromised.
