I believe if you are in the context of 'current user' there is a GetGroups (Something like CurrentSession functions)

and I think the User object itself also supports something like that, but you may need recursion if not 'current user'

I know at one point there were some upgrades to the security mapping services, and there might be some other OOTB service now that can retrieve this, I unfortunately forget which services were added for that. Maybe start by checking here:
