Data is widely recognized as the lifeblood of the modern enterprise. However, the exponential rate at which it is being generated means that it is crucial that organizations have the capability to manage it effectively to ensure its confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Organizations across the world are plagued by limited visibility of privileged accounts, users, and credentials. This creates a host of security and audibility issues, with former employees retaining access to sensitive information - a dangerous backdoor for attackers. As organizations accelerate towards the cloud, it is critical to have a strategic privileged access approach in place to ensure secure onboarding and management of new privileged accounts at scale. Join leading security practitioners and researchers at this KCLive Event to become a better privileged access manager. Gain...

Data-centric security is an alternative approach towards information protection that has emerged as a direct response to the increasingly obvious failure of traditional measures focusing on protecting IT infrastructures. Deceptively simple in theory, it promises to drastically improve security and compliance when dealing with sensitive data but requires a careful strategic approach to translate into a practical architecture. This whitepaper explains how the layered security approach combined with unified visibility and analytics help make data-centric security a reality.

Security leaders face an uphill task as cyber-criminals become increasingly creative, highly innovative, and armed with an arsenal of seemingly unlimited resources. Rapid digitalization to re-capture post-pandemic growth coupled with an uncertain geopolitical climate, businesses face growing cyber threats that require security leaders to re-think their cybersecurity strategy. To win the win against cyber-criminals, “knowing the enemy and knowing yourself” is key to building effective defences.

Focus on Operation Technology (OT) is increasing for two reasons: firstly, governments worldwide have, or are threatening to, intervene in cases of compromise of OT infrastructure and secondly, many companies are now investing in IoT (Internet of Things) technology to support their business operations to take advantage of escalating functionality and decreasing cost. Now is the time to properly plan OT and IoT environments to ensure they are adequate to the task, appropriately protected and adopt current control mechanisms.

To increase security and convenience, businesses and organizations need to adopt and implement a modern authentication system that does not rely on customers remembering usernames and passwords. Beyond Identity's newest product, Secure Customers, is a secure and frictionless authentication solution. Its invisible passwordless multi-factor authentication (MFA) makes credential-based attacks and account takeover fraud extremely difficult to execute by fully eliminating the password and improving user experience at the same time.
