The Evolution of Access Control

Posted on Jan 27, 2021 by Graham Williamson

The purpose of an identity management system is to support access control to an organization’s sensitive systems and protected resources. Contemporary access control has progressed from static entitlements, still used in many organisations. Not only manual interventions are necessary to change roles, also provisioning, reconciliation, recertification and auditing are laborious tasks, which complicate each business process.

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.

The Future of Privileged Access Management

PAM is an established and essential discipline within IAM. Traditional PAM is primarily focused on securing privileged access, for instance of administrators, to servers and systems. In today’s dynamic IT environments, the need for just-in-time access and for supporting agile workloads in IaaS environments is growing. PAM must support these emerging needs. There also is a growing need for integration with other areas of IAM such as Access Management solutions.

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.

CIAM solutions often come packed with features that could be used to improve consumer experiences, which is key to success in the digital era. However, in most cases, organizations that deploy CIAM products or use cloud-hosted CIAM services are under-utilizing the capabilities, which leads to poor customer experiences.

Implementing Zero Trust With Privileged Access Management Platforms

There is no debate about the fact that ransomware is the fastest-growing kind of cybercrime. Due to their wide range of access rights and thus potential ransom leverage, privileged accounts are at the top of the target list for cybercriminals. Therefore, organizations need to pay special attention to securing these kinds of accounts.

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.

Making Zero Trust a Reality: Basing Decisions on Valid Identity Data

Cloud computing and mobile workforces have resulted in an expanding attack surface and a complex web of identify information. This means that traditional perimeter-based security models are no longer effective. A Zero Trust model of strict access control for every user and device enables businesses to be connected and secure, but an effective identity-focused approach is essential.
