Post-Authentication
When a potential breach becomes a concrete threat , the speed and efficacy of your response matters .
• Detect
• Respond
This resource charts a path forward by :
• Showing how modern , cloud-based IAM software can support unified Identity
• Outlining the three-phase approach organizations should take to deploy a unified Identity function
• Making the case for a unified approach to Identity
Why Change : The need for a unified solution .
To cover the full breadth of Identity-related security functions their company requires , some organizations employ a network of individual point solutions that each address a different function . For example , they may use one IdP for governance , another for MFA and SSO , and yet another for breach detection .
The problem with this approach is that it adds more complexity and operational friction to the task of keeping data and resources safe . Far from insulating the organization from threat , the distributed authority and information silos inherent to these legacy solutions actually multiply the number of vulnerabilities bad actors can exploit .
A unified approach to Identity minimizes vulnerabilities by delivering a comprehensive , intuitive , and secure means of tackling pre-authentication , authentication , and post-authentication security priorities :
Pre-Authentication
Strengthening your security posture begins with minimizing vulnerabilities and reducing the attack surface .
• Discovering users , resources , and potential vulnerabilities
• Determining secure-by-design access controls and policies
• Enforcing least-privileged access
• Detecting potential threats quickly
• Responding to potential threats immediately p
• Discover
• Determine
Authentication
Authentication policy is only as powerful as your methods for enforcing that policy at the moment of attack .
