Indent for Google Groups

Hey Product Hunt! I am stoked by the approach Indent is taking to access management and wanted to get it on your radar. We’ve all experienced the frustration of not knowing who to ask to get access to a resource that we urgently needed and then had to wait hours or days to finally get in. On the flip side, as an approver I’ve also worried about forgetting to revoke access to something business critical, and never want to bottleneck my team. As companies grow, they have to become more careful about how they handle access control to things like infrastructure and cloud apps. This often comes at the cost of speed of access for users and manual workflows for approvers and admins. Indent solves this by providing on-demand access control, a way to request temporary access to cloud apps and infrastructure as quickly as ordering a rideshare. Today’s launch of Indent for Google Groups makes it incredibly simple to get started with Indent in a couple of clicks. With Indent, you can start managing access that’s on-demand and auto-expiring. I’ve known Fouad, one of Indent’s founders, for years and I’m really excited about the solution the Indent is building. Congrats team!

👋 Hi Product Hunt, so excited to share this with you! You can now sign up for Indent and set up on-demand access for Google Groups in one click! With Indent your team will be able to get access to email groups or production (if using Google Cloud) in seconds, without compromising security. Over and over we’ve seen access control handled one of two ways – either default open access where every engineer has Editor/Owner access in Google Cloud, or tightly locked down IAM where finding the right approver and getting them to grant access can take days. At Indent, we think there’s a better way: on-demand access. Indent users can request access by simply typing /access in Slack and find the Google Group they need. A preconfigured policy then pings the correct approver in Slack. The reviewer can green light the requested access for a specific length of time, and move on with their day without needing to open a single tab or set a reminder to revoke access later. Compliance audits with Indent are also worry-free. All requests are neatly logged, ready to be exported and sent off to your auditor.

In under 20 minutes we were able to get Indent set up with our AWS and Google Cloud infrastructure. Switching to on-demand access hasn’t slowed our team down and I can see Indent continuing to work for us as we grow - congrats on launch!

Fascinating! I love security! This will be awesome. Can't wait to find out more. Thanks, Indent team! This should help SOC2.
