Mitigating Risk with an Identity-First Approach to your Digital Security Strategy



The number of cyber-attacks and the sophistication with which they are being executed is on the rise. Compromise to personal credentials has nearly doubled, and also accounts for well over half of reported incidents.

 

Today’s IT leaders must mitigate these threats and ensure that both the mindset and technology toolset they implement keep their organizations – and their most critical assets – secure. That’s why many are looking to the simple but effective core principles of verifying explicitly, least-privilege access, and assume-breach as a best practice and strategy of choice.

 

Join this informative 30-minute webinar to learn:

  • How implementing zero trust can mitigate cyberattacks by eliminating trust from digital systems
  • How taking an identity-first approach to establish trust across users, devices, and apps is a first line of defense
  • Considerations for applying zero trust to core use cases like phishing-resistant authentication, data security and encryption, and network identity and access

Live Q&A with the presenter immediately following.
