With cybersecurity making the headlines for all the negative reasons, there seemed to be more thefts and breaches involving digital identity than ever before, leaving trusted technologies to generate negative headlines.
FREMONT, CA: Security identity access is deemed to be everywhere, but with the help of modern technologies, there is supposed to be a more positive narrative to creating and managing an immutable digital identity. New authentication technologies and trends that continuously protect pre-, during, and post-authorization, while leveraging individual behaviors securely and privately will become mainstream, leaving the cybercriminals in the dust. Thus organizations should consider evaluating their identity and access management (IAM) capabilities to identify and then close the risks that could lead to a breach of sensitive data.
Here are three trends to look up to, which can be leveraged to reduce risks around identities and data in the cloud.
IAM and Single Sign-On (SSO)

Companies are also providing cloud access to non-people identities such as applications, services, and other compute resources.
IAM Analytics
While it has forever been essential for organizations to have a governance model for developing their IAM frameworks, in this new paradigm, organizations must have a deep understanding of what access to data is possible, coupled with an enhanced ability to monitor and analyze the ongoing access. Leveraging IAM analytics will offer better visibility into how access t ..
