Entering the new era of the cybersecurity landscape, it is more important than ever for businesses and organizations to implement robust defensive cybersecurity measures to protect their critical data and communications. The number of cyber-attacks has risen dramatically in recent years, with criminals receiving state-level support. This puts organizations, including government agencies, critical industries and infrastructure, financial institutions, authorities, health institutions, and individual citizens, at great risk.

Last year, we anticipated that 2022 would be challenging for cybersecurity. This was proven true with the countless number of sophisticated high-profile phishing and ransomware attacks like DropBox, Twitter, Rockstar Games and Uber (twice).

As organizations are looking to streamline processes and enhance security, pursuing automation in identity and access management is a key area businesses can target. By pursuing automation in identity and access management, IT teams can free up time to work on more important tasks, and reduce the friction required in managing team member and vendor access across necessary accounts, data and applications.
