Identity-based attacks are growing in potency and frequency: IDSA reported in their 2024 survey that 91% of organizations experienced identity-based attacks. While multifactor authentication has been available for years, most implementations are weak and do not provide true phishing resistance. By future-proofing your MFA you can defend against emerging attacks, strengthen your authentication posture, and authenticate users, devices, and applications ... without ripping a replacing your existing systems. The benefits? Lower costs, happier end users, and fewer support calls.

The Authorization Fabric decides whether a specific principal is authorized to perform a precise operation on a particular resource and whether the resource permits this access.The granularity of this approach is vital in today’s threat landscape, requiring organizations to shift their focus to a comprehensive, system-wide authorization framework. This shift parallels the principles of microservices but applies them to the realm of access control. Rather than depending on a single point of control, there is a need for a network proxy that acts as a bridge between trust and authorization. Join us on a journey towards a future powered by micro authorizations, where precision, adaptability, and contextual awareness define access control. Explore how micro authorizations can address contemporary security challenges and facilitate the adoption of the Zero Trust model.

Micro Authorizations: Enabling Zero Trust in PAM

Some cloud identity providers have been at the center of high-profile breaches as modern threat actors have been heavily targeting the identity layer of cloud. Many security teams simply don't have visibility into attacks wagered against the identity control plane. In this session, learn how threat actors target the identity control plane and how to secure your IdP to better protect your environment.

Observations from Real-life Attacks & Measures to Protect Your Environment

Recent security breaches, exemplified by incidents such as Cloudflare's, serve as a stark reminder of the inherent security in unmanaged Non-Human Identities (NHIs), such as service accounts, service principals, tokens, secrets and keys. These breaches underscore the complex operational hurdles even the most seasoned security teams struggle to overcome when it comes to governing and securing NHIs. While enterprises have rolled out programs to fortify the security of human identities, most lack a strategy and solution for NHIs.

Securing Non-Human Identities: Insights from Recent Breaches

The traditional security model of "trust but verify" is no longer sufficient in today's complex and dynamic threat landscape.
Zero Trust is a security concept that assumes that threats exist both inside and outside the network, and no entity should be trusted by default.

Zero Trust: Why It Matters and How to Implement in Your Organization

Cloud, AI, and connected devices have blurred the boundaries of trust. Public key infrastructure is key to staying ahead, defining trust. 72% of organizations say that PKI and machine ID management present serious problems, resulting in outages, incidents, and audit failures. We’ll discuss insights, including PKI and machine IDs in modern IT, threats and trends, and the state of quantum-readiness.

Key Takeaways from the 2024 State of PKI & Digital Trust
