Blockchain ID for the Enterprise: A Single ID? A Good Complement? Or Irrelevant?

Posted on Nov 23, 2018 by Martin Kuppinger

Blockchain and the underlying concept of “Distributed Ledger Technologies” (DLT) have well passed the peak of initial hype. As always, focus is now shifting to real-world applications that allow companies to improve their business. It is less about cryptocurrencies and concepts with a global impact, but more about process and supply chain optimizations as well as better identity (ID) concepts. Blockchain IDs are being heavily discussed as the number of concrete product offerings is increasing in the marketplace. With organizations facing an ever-growing ID problem in their Digital Transformation, dealing with employees, partners, customers and consumers, the following questions are being raised, “Is there an enterprise use case for Blockchain ID? If so, is it only KYC (Know Your Customer) or more? And, when and how will businesses be able to benefit from Blockchain IDs?”

Business continuity planning, therefore, is a key element of digital transformation, and must cover business-critical data and applications.

Unlock the Potential of Passwordless Authentication

The idea of passwords becoming obsolete has been discussed by the IT industry for years, if not decades. In recent years, Passwordless Authentication has become a popular and catchy term. It is used to describe a set of identity verification solutions that remove the password from all aspects of the authentication flow, and from the recovery process as well. Some passwordless options have been around for a while but are starting to be implemented more by enterprises and even consumer-facing businesses.

Cyber resilience is now essential for the survival of every business, but identifying and responding to cyber threats quickly is challenging. Staff at many Security Operations Centers (SOCs) are struggling due to the high volume of security alerts, coupled with a shortage of cybersecurity talent. To address these issues, many companies are turning to automation.

Debunking Common Myths about XDR

Cyber attacks are continually evolving and so are cyber defense technologies. In a few decades we have moved from anti-virus protection through an alphabet soup of acronyms, including EPP, EDR, EPDR, NDR, CWPP, SIEM, SOAR, and now XDR. It is therefore important for businesses to get a good understanding what combination of defense technologies to choose and why.

Protecting the Business From Software Supply Chain Threats

Recent events such as the SolarWinds and Kaseya compromises by malicious actors have demonstrated the need to focus significantly more on software supply chain security. According to a report from ENISA, supply chain attacks are increasing, with 66% of attacks focusing on source code and 62% exploiting customer trust in suppliers. This is a risk organizations can’t afford to ignore.

Access Governance für SAP-Systeme – Direkt aus dem IGA-System

SAP-Systeme sind zentrale Komponenten der Business-Anwendungen in vielen Unternehmen. Mit der vermehrten Nutzung von anderen Cloud-Lösungen für Teile der Geschäftsprozesse sind sie aber längst nicht mehr die einzigen Lösungen, in denen kritische Informationen gehalten werden. Damit stellt sich immer mehr die Frage, welche Systeme die Zugriffskontrolle und Risikoanalyse für SAP übernehmen. IGA-Lösungen können hier eine zentrale Funktion übernehmen, um Audit- und Sicherheitsanforderungen effizient und integriert umzusetzen.

Best of Both Worlds: Combining Multi-Factor and Passwordless Authentication

Most organizations realize that passwords are no longer fit for purpose. They are costly and difficult to maintain, and they are easily compromised, enabling a high proportion of cyber-attacks. Many organizations are looking to Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and Passwordless Authentication as solutions, but this can be challenging.

Unify Identity and Security to Block Identity-Based Cyber Attacks

Compromised credentials are a top cyber-attack method. Identity-based attacks are on the rise, it is therefore vital that businesses can detect the misuse of enterprise identities to block attackers from getting unfettered insider access to IT systems and data. But that can be challenging in today’s distributed, hybrid, and multi-cloud business IT environment.
