The Role of Authorization in Driving Zero Trust and Identity-First Security

Static and inflexible policies through traditional access control methods have failed to address security risk in real-time. Enterprises are expanding on an identity-first security strategy to better support Zero Trust initiatives and address their complex, distributed environments. In this session we cover how enterprises can deliver dynamic controls for Identity-First Security in a consistent, continuous, and contextual manner by externalizing authorization. Learn how a centralizing authorization and distributing enforcement: * Applies Identity context to access controls for enterprise services and systems * Standardizes authorization across applications, API gateways, microservices and data layers * Ensures continuous, risk-based access throughout the user journey by drawing from multiple sources for identity, threat signals, and data context * Simplifies the way access policies are created, managed, and enforced by security and business stakeholders
