Opal Security vs. C1

Opal is an authorization reasoning platform that empowers security and engineering teams to manage access and reduce identity risk at scale. We provide real-time visibility, prioritized insights, and frictionless just-in-time controls across every identity: from employees to AI agents. At our core is an intelligent data layer that continuously analyzes access behavior to surface and contextualize the most critical risks. Unlike legacy IGA or workflow tools, Opal gives our customers read-write authority to enforce least privilege and remediate exposures directly.

C1 helps organizations secure their workforce through modern access controls and governance. Security and IT teams use C1 to automate user access reviews, identify and remove unused access, and save time with self-service access requests. Forward-thinking companies like DigitalOcean, Ramp, Qualtrics, and Zscaler us to achieve least privilege and ensure compliance. Our founders are proven technology entrepreneurs from Okta, Lookout, and Rackspace.
