It’s estimated that approximately 80% of hacking-related security breaches involve the misuse of privileged credentials. A zero trust approach to securing your infrastructure is fundamental to reducing risk — and securing identities lies at the core of a successful zero trust strategy.

 

Deploying a strong Identity, Credential, and Access Management (ICAM) program as part of your zero trust strategy allows you to take an integrated approach to users, applications, and data across your increasingly complex infrastructure. ICAM means ensuring the right users have the appropriate access to the appropriate resources, at the right time. Most importantly, it means managing heightened privileged access across the enterprise.

 

Attendess in this workshop learned how BeyondTrust and Ping Identity deliver the key components of zero trust, while empowering worker productivity with seamless access just when they need it. 

 

Government and industry experts examined how to strengthen identity security from both a backend infrastructure and citizen facing perspective. Leaders examined current initiatives across the federal government and offered guidance around identity, credential, and access management. 

 

Attendees will come away with an improved understanding of: 

• Why identity is at the center of zero trust practices
• How to balance customer experience, privacy, and identity security
• How automation can reduce identity theft
• The collaboration and data standardization required for enterprise level identity security
• The role emerging technologies can play in identity management
