It All Comes Back to Access: How to Establish Cloud Identity Security in 2024

Traditional least privilege practices have proven inadequate. Enterprises are caught between over-provisioning roles or resort to the blunt instrument of full access removal – both lead to operational inefficiency and increased risk.

Gain insight into:
– Inefficiencies of all-or-nothing access policies in contemporary enterprise contexts.
– Strategies for implementing a nuanced access model that refines least privilege for practical, everyday use.
– Real-world examples showcasing the limitations of traditional PoLP and the benefits of a revised approach.

Attendees will get an enriched perspective on achieving true least privilege - one that reflects the changing realities of cloud (and on-prem) access requirements.

The Broken State of Least Privilege: Reimagining a New Approach

Third-party privilege is one of the most significant attack vectors organizations face. Yet, today's organizations manage a wide range of external identities such as contractors, partners, freelancers, suppliers, and affiliates to perform important business functions. Managing their identities and the access they receive is becoming increasingly complex, manual, and fraught with error. It’s time to bring all these critical identities under control.

Join this webinar for advice on how to create more trust in your third party relationships by adding sustainable processes and tools that enable you to control access. In this session Saviynt experts will discuss:
– Creating a smooth, secure Day-1 process
– Using just-in-time access provisioning to reduce risk to data
– Leveraging PAM processes to monitor and audit third party activities

Use Identity Convergence to Collaborate More Securely With External Partners

Whether you are just starting your journey with IAM, or are a sophisticated organization with advanced programs, IDSA best practices enable you to build a roadmap and benchmark your progress.

Securing human and machine identities in production environments is critical, but cloud complexity and the necessary skills make it extremely difficult. During this webinar, Lior Zatlavi, Tenable Senior Principal Cloud Security Architect, who chairs the IDSA CIEM Technical Working Group, will explain how you can jumpstart your CIEM efforts by implementing relevant best practices to increase visibility, effectively manage entitlements, and further reduce risks by categorizing both human and service identities. He will also demonstrate how to leverage tools like Ermetic (now Tenable Cloud Security) to automate processes.

Attendees will learn about the importance of:
● Listing and tracking all identity relationships in your cloud infrastructure
● Processing logs to profile the activity of identities and detecting anomalous behavior patterns
● Integrating the remediation of excessive permissions to existing workflows
● Managing Just-in-Time access to reduce standing privilege

Who should attend?
This talk is relevant for both c-level executives who are aiming to solve the business challenges that CIEM can resolve, as well as cloud security practitioners, who get into the nitty gritty of it all.

Elevating Cloud Security with CIEM Best Practices

Optimizing IAM Infrastructure Through Program Maturity

Comprehensive IAM frameworks are crucial for safeguarding user identity and access privilege. Human vulnerabilities, like errors and social engineering attacks, can compromise IAM systems. Join us to explore proactive and adaptive approaches for managing IAM, integrating technology and user education. We'll discuss the human aspects of a security framework and balancing user convenience with security. Learn how to achieve adaptability while protecting against threats.

Attendees Will Learn How To:
• Identify and address vulnerabilities posed by human errors and social engineering attacks in IAM systems through thorough training and awareness programs for employees.
• Implement proactive and adaptive approaches to effectively manage IAM and stay ahead of potential security threats.
• Integrate technology solutions with comprehensive user education programs to enhance the overall security posture of IAM systems.
• Develop and implement strategies that strike the right balance between user convenience and security measures without overly burdening users.
• Learn from adversaries and adopt adaptability in IAM management to align with evolving threats and industry best practices.

Identity: Humans are the Problem

Balancing security and usability is crucial—especially in fast-paced environments where an organization’s frontline workers often need to authenticate quickly, manage complex workflows, and handle customer interactions. However, many businesses struggle with outdated and inefficient authentication processes that can create significant user friction, high costs, and gaps that can be exploited by bad actors.

Avoid these pitfalls with modern approaches that can meet you where you are today—regardless of your underlying IT complexity—and find out how organizations like CarMax are moving away from legacy approaches to authentication and toward the foundations of a Zero Trust and passwordless future.

In this increasingly digital era, identity involves more than satisfying compliance mandates. It has rapidly become an organization’s first line of defense, a business enabler, and often a board-level topic. Having strong identity management practices is now paramount for enterprises as they defend against cybersecurity threats and enable digital transformation.

But let’s face it: most Identity and Access Management (IAM) programs stay in the shadows until something goes wrong – an identity-related breach, damage to brand reputation, an audit failure, and so on. So how do you project the value of an IAM program, seek buy-in from executives and LoBs, and ensure strong identity management practices are followed? During this Cybersecurity Awareness month, let’s discuss the strategies for driving home the value of Identity Management.

Join us for this webinar to hear directly from a seasoned CSO as we discuss:

- The drivers for a strong IAM program
- What resonates with the board and the executive team
- How to get buy-in and support from the stakeholders and LoBs
- Key ingredients of a strong Identity Management program
- Successful strategies to consider
