Identity Access Management
Gartner says IT security leaders should redouble efforts to implement proper identity hygiene and make this a priority for the security programme by using outcome-driven metrics to provide directional guidance and set the bar for improvement.
In today's digital era, the traditional perimeter defense which has been relied upon for so long time, is no longer viable. A shift towards SASE models and zero-trust-based strategies, highlights the importance of identity as the new perimeter. With data and applications dispersed across various environments, individuals, applications, and connected devices interact with these resources from anywhere. Identity plays a crucial role in cybersecurity, ensuring that only authorised users with appropriate credentials can access the necessary resources. This emphasises that identity is now the primary perimeter.
The end of passwords
Relying solely on password-based access control is no longer sufficient, given the significant number of compromised credentials. Any unauthorised possession of these credentials pose a security risk. Implementing additional security measures is crucial. Today, multi-factor authentication solutions are a must-have in any identity and access management strategy.
Fortunately, enhancing security does not have to be complicated. Seamless authentication is achievable. Employing single sign-on across various platforms (on-premises and cloud) helps to balance security and user convenience.
Our identity and access management strategy encompasses identity governance, contextualisation, user behavior analytics, and privileged account security. To identify malicious activities, user behavior must be compared to a standard baseline. Special attention should be given to privileged accounts, ensuring they are used only for authorised activities by the rightful users.
