Defense in Depth: A Multi-Layered Approach to Least Privilege

As attack surfaces grow—fuelled by rising entitlements, machine identities, and cloud expansion—the average organization now faces 351 exploitable attack paths¹. Two of the most common being Escalation of Privileges² and Remote Execution of Code². Despite least privilege being a core security principle, most organizations take a fragmented approach using multiple disconnected tools. This leads to security gaps, inefficiencies, higher costs, and compliance challenges.

Organizations clearly need a more streamlined approach to implementing least privilege across their stack. One that layers least privilege across identities, endpoints, applications, sessions, on-premises, cloud infrastructure, and SaaS.

Join the BeyondTrust experts at this live Webinar to:

• Understand the key challenges organizations face because of expanding attack surfaces
• Understand why traditional least privilege strategies need a reboot
• Gain insights to how organisations can automate and control privileged access and entitlements through demos
• Learn how a holistic, modernized privileged access management (PAM) approach can streamline your least privilege approach, provide expansive protection, while efficiently closing security gaps.
