- For new digital business models to succeed, customers' privacy preferences must be secure, which begins by treating each identity as a new security perimeter.
- Businesses need to recognize that perimeter security, focused on securing endpoints, firewalls, and networks, provides no protection against identity-related threats and identification information. As long as they do not begin to implement identity-centric security measures, account compromise attacks will continue to provide a perfect camouflage for data breaches.
- According to 74% of companies, 74% of data breaches begin with an abuse of privilege that could have been avoided if organizations had adopted a Privileged Access Management (MAP) strategy. recent survey of Centrify.
- Only 48% of companies have a pbadword safe and only 21% have implemented multi-factor authentication (MFA) for privileged administrative access.
New digital business models are redefining organizations' growth trajectories and enabling start-ups to thrive, all based on customer trust. To win and build customer confidence, you need to start with a security strategy that can quickly adapt to all the identities and threats that a new business model creates. & Nbsp;Centrify's recent survey, Privileged access management in the modern threat landscape,& nbsp;found 74% of data breaches begin with an abuse of privilege. The survey also revealed that the most important areas of IT infrastructure on which new digital business models rely, include Big Data repositories, access to the cloud platform, containers and DevOps , are among the most vulnerable. The most urgent challenges facing executives include protecting their business, securing customer data, and finding new ways to add value to their business operations.
Why must leaders know about identity management and access now & nbsp;
Leaders have the urgent need to improve Identity and Access Management (IAM) to ensure that the right people access the right resources at the right time and for the right reasons. IAM components such as Access Management, Single Sign-On, Identity and Client Access Management (CIAM), Advanced Authentication, Governance and Identity Administration (IGA), IoT-driven IAM and Privileged Access Management address the need to ensure proper access to resources throughout the attack surface of an organization and to meet compliance requirements. Considering that privileged access abuse is the leading cause of current violations, they place a special focus on Privileged account management as part of their broader cyber security strategies to secure the 'keys to their realm'. ". Gartner supports this view by giving high priority to a Privileged account. Management, including in its Gartner Top 10 Security Projects for 2018, and again in 2019.
In a recent conversation with insurance and financial services leaders, I learned why privilege management is so urgent and a priority today. Privileged access abuse is the primary driver of attack, where the majority of infringement attempts to access the most sensitive systems and data in society are observed. It's also where they can improve customer data security while improving employee productivity by enabling faster access to systems and platforms. All are experiencing instances of hacking and state-sponsored hacking groups that offer bitcoin payments in exchange for administrative-level logins and pbadwords for their financial systems.
Many of the leaders with whom I spoke are also evaluating Zero Trust as the foundation of their cyber security strategy. As their new digital business models grow, all focus on eliminating the obsolete mindset of "trust, verify" and replace it with Zero Trust, which imposes an "never trust, always check" approach. They also use an access approach with the least privilege to minimize each attack surface and improve the visibility of audits and compliance while reducing risks, complexity and costs.
The following five elements are the five things every leader needs to know about managing identities and access to deal with a reality that all businesses and consumers must recognize: hackers do not "hijack" anymore, they connect .
- In order to manage access rights and all preferred user digital identities, privileged access management (PAM) and identity management (IGA) systems must be integrated with an IAM strategy. In order for security strategies for digital business initiatives to evolve, they must support access requests, rights management, and attestation of user identification information for governance purposes. . As the identities make up the new security perimeter, it is also essential to provide access to the least privileged privileges to suppliers, distributors, and service providers to evolve any new business model. Natively, IGA deals only with end users – not privileged users. Therefore, integration with PAM systems is required to import privileged user data and obtain a global view of access rights.
- IAM is a proven approach to the protection of intellectual property (IP), patents and regulatory compliance, including the GDPR. The fascinating digital businesses that are emerging today also function as patents and intellectual property foundries. A byproduct of their operations is a whole new business, product and process idea. The executives they talk to speak primarily about how they secure intellectual property and patents by using an identity and access management strategy.
- Knowing the identity of each user with confidence is what makes every aspect of an IAM strategy work. Enabling multifactor authentication (MFA) for each access session and the surface of the threat is one of the key processes for successful IAM strategy. It is recommended to reinforce the Zero Trust principles through an application of multifactor authentication on each computer, which can not be bypbaded (or bypbaded) by malicious programs.
- Now, transaction verification for future digital business models of e-commerce is worth it. Think of your IAM initiative as a platform to create constant trust with your customers. Since all digital business initiatives rely on multichannel sales, transaction verification as part of an IAM strategy is essential. Organizations badociate verification and AMF to counteract violations and misuse of access to identity information.
- When defining any IAM strategy, focus on the need to tailor privileged access management to your specific needs. PAM is the fundamental element that turns security investments into business value. It is a catalyst to make customer confidence turn into revenue. Many organizations equate PAM with a pbadword safe. But in a modern threat landscape where humans, machines, applications and services dynamically require access to a growing number of attack surfaces such as cloud, IoT, data bulky and containers, this obsolete legacy approach will not effectively protect the main vector of attack: privileged access abuse. Sellers such as Centrifier& nbsp; and others go beyond the safe and offer Zero Trust solutions for PAM that respond to these access requesters and modern attack surfaces.
Conclusion
Insurance and financial services executives realize, and even predict, that the number and intensity of efforts to integrate their systems with compromised identity information will increase. Giving priority to privileged access management in the IAM Toolkit has proven to be an effective cybersecurity strategy for protecting the data of their companies and customers, while making a valuable contribution to its growth. In summary, Identity and Access Management is the cornerstone of any successful Zero Trust-based strategy, and adopting an aggressive and preventative approach to privileged access management is the new standard for organizations' cyber security strategies.
