Data-driven Cybersecurity Defense for Organizations and their Ecosystems

Love it or hate, the annual RSA Conference (RSAC) in San Francisco is the largest cyber security conference in world. It is where the world comes to talk and learn security. Inevitably every year at RSAC there are some technologies that become the industry buzzwords and hot buttons. These generally stay on top of mind in the security industry for the rest of the year and beyond. In past years topics like cloud security, NAC, machine learning, threat analysis and more have launched entire ecosystems coming out of RSAC.

The explosion of edges created by digital acceleration places an enormous strain on any cybersecurity infrastructure. Simply put, security has to be everywhere and traditional security approaches cannot handle today’s challenges.

As we all know too well, 2020 and 2021 have been full of adaptations. While many employees adjust to working remotely, IT and security professionals everywhere must work overtime to secure and manage their company’s network core infrastructure.

InfoSec pros have their work cut out for them—with the need to secure an estimated 300 billion passwords by 2020. Privileged password management, in particular, is a pain point for almost every organization. Privileged credentials are often difficult to identify, challenging to tame and properly secure, and if done improperly, can be costly to manage. Without strong privileged password management processes and technology in place, your organization is ripe for all kinds of security breaches. In many industries, lack of the proper protections in place alone puts you at risk from legal and/or regulatory fallout.
