Would you like to strengthen your security and be effectively protected in the digital environment?
You need an access and identity management solution to guarantee the security not only of your accesses, but of your entire enterprise.
Without access and identity management, there can be no enterprise security
Putting identity security on the back burner is like building a castle with high ramparts to protect yourself, but leaving a small door open.
It might be easy to sweep the issue of access and identity security under the carpet, but that's a big mistake!
This would jeopardize the security of the entire company, as it only takes one vulnerability in the access systems to compromise the entire IT system.
Despite the use of firewalls, anti-virus, e-mail filtering, anti-spam, etc., data and information are not protected from a malicious user with administrator access or elevated rights.
That's why it's so important to address this issue with an access and identity management solution.
Anticipating risks
CIOs and CISOs are well aware of the importance of anticipating IT risks, and pay a great deal of attention to it.
They put in place security measures that enable them to protect systems and avoid attacks and security incidents as far as possible.
However, they sometimes tend to overlook the risks associated with access and identity management, which require special attention.
Good management is crucial to ensuring the protection of IT systems and data throughout the company.
Conversely, poor identity management has consequences for the company, such as :
- poorly controlled rights,
- ghost accounts,
- difficult-to-perform IT audits,
- breaches of data confidentiality
A global vision of safety
Using an access and identity management solution not only ensures access security, but also the security of the entire enterprise.
By placing identity security at the very heart of corporate security, all identities, accesses, technologies, data and information are protected.
This provides double protection, at both macro and micro levels, to ensure the company's overall security.
On a macro scale, you protect the entire IT ecosystem against external attacks and security breaches, securing sensitive infrastructures, applications and data.
At the micro level, you ensure that each user has only the necessary authorizations, reducing the risk of privilege abuse and confidentiality breaches.
This comprehensive approach establishes rigorous controls, prevents human error and reduces the internal risks associated with the misuse of access credentials.
Conclusion
Identities are a key factor in overall corporate security, as they are the main point of access to company systems and data.
That's why you shouldn't focus all your efforts on protecting the information system, but rather encompass identity and access in addition to infrastructure protection.
By securing identities with an IAM solution, companies strengthen their overall security and protect themselves effectively in the digital environment.
