Access vs Actions, Beyond Traditional IGA, Remote Identity Verification, & Fraud - Tim Prendergast, Damon Tompkins, Andrew Bud, Chris Meyer - ESW Vault

Security Weekly Podcast Network (Audio)

Traditional approaches to access management are no longer sufficient to safeguard enterprise security. Tim will explain why the most effective approach to modern enterprise security requires a Zero Trust model that extends beyond just access to encompass every action, no matter how minor.

Tim will describe the importance of implementing a Zero Trust framework that evaluates each command, query, and configuration change in real-time, and how that delivers the most effective and complete security solution. Doing so involves the application of fine-grained authorization policies that adapt to the context of the user, the sensitivity of the action, and the prevailing threat landscape.

Traditional IGA solutions are not risk-focused by design, and as audit and compliance focus continues to expand beyond core ERP systems and into line of business apps and point solutions, organizations must plan holistically how to address risk across their application landscape. It’s never too late to start kicking off your risk reduction journey, and utilizing an innovative, unified platform for both identity and access risk governance has significant, compounding benefits and helps organizations realize faster time to value, lower TCO and longer term consistent risk exposure reduction. Ensuring access to all of your business-critical applications is provisioned seamlessly, efficiently, and cost-effectively while meeting risk, audit and compliance requirements should be the primary goal of any identity and access risk governance solution implementation.

Remote identity verification is one of the biggest challenges in the digital age, especially with the use of AI-generated deepfakes which are now impossible to distinguish from real imagery with the human eye. AI-powered biometrics have emerged as the most robust defense against deepfakes - and therefore, the only reliable method for remote identity verification.

The criminal opportunity shaping the landscape today and how authoritative, accurate and automated processes are helping others increase their conversion rates by 20% while preventing 99% of all fraudulent attempts. What is the Criminal Opportunity facing us all right now? Data breaches and mail theft have resulted in a record level of available compromised Identity Information, payment information, and login information and even stolen checks. It has been said that ’At this point, all of our information is out on the dark web and it's now just a matter of when is it going to be used against us.’ Combined with inadequate fraud strategies, fraudsters have the key to the castle, it’s a perfect scenario of having the answers to the quiz ahead of time.
