Cross-Vendor Sola ISPM Benchmark: Evaluating Agentic AI for Federated Identity Security Reasoning

The rapid proliferation of multi-cloud and SaaS platforms has transformed Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) into a fundamentally cross-vendor challenge: critical misconfigurations and privilege escalation paths increasingly span multiple identity providers, infrastructure layers, and authentication systems never designed to interoperate. Existing evaluations focus on isolated single-platform environments and provide no means to assess whether an AI agent can reason across these fragmented boundaries. To address this gap, we introduce the Cross-Vendor Sola ISPM Benchmark, a production-grade benchmark of 50 data-grounded tasks requiring multi-hop entity resolution and cross-system correlation across eight integrated enterprise platforms including AWS, Okta, Azure AD, and Google Workspace. We also contribute an evaluation framework measuring not only final answer correctness but also evidentiary grounding, structural join fidelity, retrieval quality, and SQL equivalence. We evaluate the Sola AI Agent across five context configurations - from no injected metadata to full schema, graph, and retrieval context - using three frontier LLMs. Results show that structured relational context improves answer correctness by approximately 34% relatively and reduces exploration queries by approximately 70% across all tested models, with the largest gains driven by cross-vendor graph topology. Our findings indicate that frontier LLMs possess substantial latent security reasoning capability, but reliable cross-vendor identity analysis is fundamentally constrained by the availability of explicit relational context for entity resolution and evidentiary grounding. Under full context, the best configuration achieves 78% answer correctness while reducing complete failure to 4%.
