With the number of data breaches rising exponentially, organizations must adopt governance practices and tools to prevent threats and increase operational efficiency. Remote work has made gaining access to the corporate perimeter easier than ever. For many organizations, an enormous amount of the workload is stored and shared across various on-premises and cloud applications. This is why many organizations use granular access control solutions to keep up with authentication demands.

Identity and access management (IAM) solutions help securely manage the digital identities of users. IAM encompasses three key components: identification, authentication, and authorization. Restricting access to business-critical resources and ensuring data protection can help IT admins track privileged access abuse. IAM solutions protect the organization against security incidents by setting parameters in the system to detect anomalous activities that otherwise go undetected. These IAM security features help build effective security infrastructure.

Make the switch to remote work easy and effectively manage the identities of remote users. Enable single sign-on (SSO) for quick, secure access to corporate resources and implement multi-factor authentication (MFA) to strengthen security. Secure your hybrid cloud infrastructure where data is stored in mixed computing platforms made of on-premises servers and private or public clouds. Monitor network traffic and enforce granular visibility across your offline-online environment. Develop cross-platform risk profiles and enable adaptive access to resources on strict contextual authentication.
