Championing Privileged Access Management With Zero Trust Security

In the age of hybrid working, global organizations urgently need a unified approach towards securing their privileged identities, such as user accounts, devices, admins , and more, against abuse and insider threats. If one or more of these privileged identities were compromised, the consequences for organizations could be devastating, especially when looking at critical infrastructures.

A modern approach to securing privileged accounts is to apply the principle of Zero Trust: Never trust, always verify. While Zero Trust is not an off-the-shelf solution, it is modern vendors of PAM solutions that recommend using this security principle to cement the technical capabilities of their products. This webinar will provide actionable insights for organizations to employ Zero Trust security in their overall PAM strategy and operations.

Paul Fisher, Senior Analyst at KuppingerCole, will look at the origins of Zero Trust theory and its development as well as how Zero Trust fits into the KuppingerCole identity and cybersecurity fabric architecture concepts. He will address how Zero Trust can assist in managing cloud entitlements and discuss we 100% Zero Trust is possible.

Srilekha Sankaran, product consultant for PAM solutions at ManageEngine, will address the risks of insider threats and privilege misuse in the era of hybrid work, and discuss the management and elimination of the risks posed by standing privileges.
