Reimagining Workforce Security Beyond MFA and SSO
As today's threats and how we work continue to rapidly evolve, traditional security tools like Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and Single Sign-On (SSO) are no longer enough for you to provide truly secure workforce access to applications and information. While foundational, we've seen these controls easily bypassed through methods like social engineering, where attackers exploit privileged users like help desks to reset credentials, allowing threat actors to gain unauthorized access to sensitive employee accounts. Once inside, they escalate privileges, disable security measures, and compromise critical systems. If foundational tools are not enough what can organizations do differently to mitigate the risk of modern workforce identity focused attacks?
Join this panelcast to hear more about:
- The changing definition of "privilege" and trends in attacker methods targeting workforce users.
- The shortfalls of SSO and MFA alone for securing against modern evolving threats.
- Approaches to counter advanced threats and safeguard workforce access without negatively impacting user experience or productivity.
- Strategies to strengthen your security posture by adding advanced Identity Security capabilities and controls to your environment via a defense-in-depth strategy.
