– In the next 3-5 years, millions of people will start operating with a single, centralized digital identity. This will go far beyond legacy concepts, like a social security number. We are seeing the first signs of this, and it’s increasingly being pushed by identity providers.
– These questions and more are the subjects for discussion on the Tech Means Business podcast with our guest, Morey Haber, the Chief Security Officer at BeyondTrust. We talk about zero-trust, privileges and access policies, geofencing, and cloud privilege brokering.
– BeyondTrust has a DevOps secrets management tool that protects secrets used by apps and other non-human identities in the CI/CD toolchain. This is one of the several tools they have for securing privileged access to your apps and infra resources.

– Unlike the unrealistic packet-filtering that involves large portions of the Internet, PAM technologies are accessible to smaller organizations and serve other value-adding purposes.

– Following the release of the new National Cyber Strategy, the United States has a fully articulated its cyber strategy. The Office of the National Cyber Director (ONCD), that advises the White House on cyber issues, didn't even exist when the last national cyber security strategy was released under former President Donald Trump in 2018.
– Next year, expect products to actually be “zero trust-ready", satisfy all seven tenants of the NIST 800-207 model, and support an architecture referenced by NIST 1800-35b. Zero trust product vendors will create marketing messages that may imply positive and/or negative intent. Some will provide positive zero trust authentication and behavioral monitoring, while others will work using a closed security model to demonstrate what should happen when a negative zero trust event occurs.
– Traditional anti-malware and endpoint detection and response solutions are designed to detect ransomware based on pattern-based behaviors, including virus signatures and monitoring key API, file, and registry requests on Windows for potential malicious activity, explained Morey Haber, chief security officer at BeyondTrust, a maker of privileged account management and vulnerability management solutions in Carlsbad, Calif.
