Duo is a cloud-based security platform that protects access to all applications, for any user and device, from anywhere. It’s designed to be both easy to use and deploy, while providing complete endpoint visibility and control. 

Duo verifies users' identities with strong multi-factor authentication. Paired with deep insights into your users’ devices, Duo gives you the policies and control you need to limit access based on endpoint or user risk. Users get a consistent login experience with Duo's single sign-on that delivers centralized access to both on-premises and cloud applications.

With Duo, you can protect against compromised credentials and risky devices,  as well as unwanted access to your applications and data. This combination of user and device trust builds a strong foundation for a zero-trust security model.

Attackers today expect you to have some sort of MFA, and they're bypassing traditional defenses and turning your strongest security control into a potential vulnerability. The stats are stark: 60% of breaches involve identity as a key component, and 40% of compromises feature MFA issues, from misconfigurations to outright bypasses. The threat isn't just at the login screen anymore; it spans your entire identity lifecycle – from enrollment to help desk tickets, and even after a user has authenticated once! The good news? Phishing-resistant MFA is the answer, and Duo is changing the game. Forget clunky hardware tokens, complex setups, and arduous deployments. Duo delivers true end-to-end phishing resistance that's easy to implement, balancing elite enterprise-level security with a seamless user and admin experience.

MFA is Dead: Long Live End-to-End Phishing Resistance

AI-driven attacks are accelerating identity security growth and system modernization, with rising conversations around protecting the cutting edge of AI work while balancing legacy applications. It’s no surprise that traditional identity is failing. In over 50% of incidents where attackers targeted MFA deployments, identity and access management (IAM) applications were their first stop after initial compromise to escalate privileges and move laterally with more permissions. There are two key drivers behind these breaches: outdated protection and complexity. In this webinar, you will learn: The ways AI can be a double-edged sword in identity security Actionable top-of-mind and trend insights from IT and cybersecurity leaders How to set robust, consistent security policy that won’t frustrate your users How Duo can help make brokering and securing user identity simple from the start

5 Ways Duo Helps you Combat Identity Attacks

Most people know that identity-based attacks are on the rise. The cybersecurity headlines seem full of breaches that involve identity as a key target. But, just because a problem is prevalent, doesn’t mean solutions to the problem are easy to implement. In fact, it can often feel overwhelming to break down the problem of identity-based attacks into concrete actions that will help improve defenses.

In this webinar, cybersecurity expert, Ted Kietzman, will highlight three key strategies to improving identity security – starting at the conceptual level and then diving deeper into descriptive examples of how each will help strengthen the identity perimeter. Hopefully, by the end of the session, attendees will feel equipped to dramatically improve their identity defenses – because at Duo, we’ve got you!

3 Concrete Ways to Improve Your Identity Security

With an industry-wide move to a zero trust security approach, the user’s identity has become the new security perimeter. Data from breach investigation reports clearly shows how the attackers have adapted and followed this shift. Most breaches today have an identity component and the identity is now under attack. So what happens next?

In this webinar we look at why these attacks succeed, how you can gain better visibility into the true identity security posture of your systems, and how the authentication processes can be hardened with new and existing tools.

Identity Under Siege: Strategies for Enhancing Security in a Zero Trust World

At this point, the fact that 80% of breaches can be traced back to compromised credentials seems to be a security industry constant. It’s like the speed of light. Year in, year out – it holds steady. But things have changed over time — there have been advances in authentication technology from stricter forms of MFA to federation to passkeys. Some of these advances are difficult to understand, but at Duo, we aim to make security simple. From small start-ups to large enterprises, our user-friendly security protects every click, every connection, every time. We’ve got you. 
 
 In this session, we’ll dive into the trends behind the compromised credentials statistic – and discuss a new paradigm to address this common identity-based threat.

Bolster Your Defenses with Continuous Identity Security from Duo

You’ve no doubt heard the phrase, “Attackers don’t hack anyone these days. They log on.” By obtaining (or stealing) valid user account details, an attacker can gain access to a system, remain hidden, and then elevate their privileges to “log in” to more areas of the network.

As a result of the level of access stolen credentials can provide, the use of valid accounts is prevalent across the threat landscape. Not only is it the second most common MITRE ATT&CK tactic, but the rise of MFA and an increase in basic phishing awareness means adversaries have gotten more creative. Often, this ends with the user being targeted for possible manipulation as part of an “insider attack.”

But don't worry, at Duo, we've got you. To illustrate ways in which security practitioners can help defend against the techniques employed in credential stealing attacks, this webinar will break down an identity attack piece by piece. There will also be a discussion of methods and mechanisms to prevent or detect these techniques to stop breaches or limit their impact.
