Access Management and DevOps: How to Cater them to Hybrid Work

This event qualifies for 1 CPEs

Some of the most devastating cyber breaches are originating from the DevOps space. Privileged Access Management (PAM) is a critical area of access risk management and identity security at any agency. Privileged accounts have traditionally been given to administrators to access data and applications but with the shifts towards remote work and users, access management needed to adapt. Changing business practices, hybrid IT, cloud, and other forms of digital transformation has forced experts to readdress DevOps in order to avoid detrimental breaches.

DevOps support has become essential to many organizations looking to become more responsive and innovative in our evolving digital world. Application developers and other agile teams increasingly need privileged access to essential tools to work in dynamic environments.

Join government security experts to discuss how advanced secrets management enables agencies to accelerate their digital transformation and DevOps projects. We’ll discuss:

How to reduce your attack surface by centralizing secrets management for passwords, keys and tokens, and certificates
