Paths to Privilege: The Battleground in Identity Security

Today’s organizations are facing more identity and access management headaches than ever before. Many are still maintaining some types of legacy identity platforms and applications, while new types of identity components are cropping up all the time.

Despite the longstanding principles of least privilege and Privilege Access Management (PAM), the ever-evolving technology and threat landscape demands a deeper understanding of the indirect and often hidden paths attackers exploit. This complexity can leave both seasoned security professionals and those new to identity management wondering how to navigate the modern landscape.

In this webinar, Dave Shackleford of Voodoo Security breaks down:

• The various categories of identity that many enterprises are reliant on today, from traditional on-premises environments as well as cloud deployments.
• The types of privilege abuse that can (and does) easily occur
• Controls and considerations to help security teams better handle privileges within the entire identity estate. 

Following Dave’s presentation, BeyondTrust reveals the concept of Paths to Privilege™ and explore the 5 fundamentals for protecting your paths to privilege. Learn why paths to privilege are today’s risk exposure points through things like vulnerable human and machine accounts, misconfigurations, remote access, and excessive privileges.

BeyondTrust will provide practical guidance, real-world examples, and innovative strategies to help you find and address these paths to privilege through an identity-centric approach.
