Blast radius

Assume the key is stolen.Know what it reaches.

Blast radius is the set of resources an identity can reach through every credential, role and trust relationship it holds — resolved from the identity graph and ranked by what matters. It turns a leaked key into a list: here is what that key's identity can touch, starting with what is high-impact.

The problem

A leaked key is not a string problem.

The question in the first ten minutes of an incident is never which secret — it is what that secret's identity can reach right now, and which of those things matter.

Reach is transitive

A CI token reaches a role, the role reaches an account, the account trusts production

Strings have no radius

A scanner finds the secret; only the graph knows what the identity behind it can reach

Criticality is context

Ten reachable buckets matter less than one customer database

How it works

Start at the identity. Follow everything it holds.

Blast radius is computed on the same graph as ownership and effective access, so the answer includes the hops a per-account view cannot see.

  1. Start at the identity

    Not at the credential: every key and token the identity holds is included

  2. Follow every credential

    Each credential authenticates to services; each service exposes the resources behind it

  3. Resolve effective access

    Role chains, trust policies and cross-account assumption extend the reachable set

  4. Rank by impact

    Reachable resources are ordered by the impact an operator classified and the privilege level held

What you get

Reach, ranked and explained.

Not a number: a list of resources with the path to each, the privilege held and the grant that makes it reachable.

Reachable resources

List every repository, workload, account and server an identity can reach, wherever a connector collects resources

Ranked by impact

See high-impact resources first, with the privilege level on each

Path to each resource

Open any resource to see the credential, role chain and trust that reach it

Reach in findings

Carry reach to high-impact resources as evidence in identity and credential findings

Grant named per resource

Each reachable resource names the role, trust or binding that makes it reachable

Risk over time

Recorded risk history shows how an identity’s risk moved as roles and trusts changed

Containment

Shrink the radius from the finding.

A blast radius is only useful if it leads to a smaller one. Each reachable resource is tied to the grant that makes it reachable, so the recommendation is specific: scope this role, rotate this key, remove this trust. Trustivan proposes the change for a second person's approval; the change at the provider is made by a person.

  • Grant named first, so the change is specific, not a guess.
  • Owner in the loop, because every action needs a human decision and a record.
  • Evidence after the fix, with the radius re-resolved on the next sync.

A demo resolves the reach of one identity — credentials, role chains, trusts, resources — and names the grant behind each.
