Many are still maintaining some types of legacy identity platforms and applications\, while new types of identity components are cropping up all the time. \nDespite 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. \nIn this webinar\, Dave Shackleford of Voodoo Security will break down: \n\nThe various categories of identity that many enterprises are reliant on today\, from traditional on-premises environments as well as cloud deployments.\nThe types of privilege abuse that can (and does) easily occur\nControls and considerations to help security teams better handle privileges within the entire identity estate.\n\nFollowing Dave’s presentation\, BeyondTrust will reveal the concept of Paths to Privilege™ and explore the 5 fundamentals for protecting your paths to privilege. Learn why paths to privilege is today’s risk exposure point through things like vulnerable human & machine accounts\, misconfigurations\, remote access and excessive privileges. \nBeyondTrust will provide practical guidance\, real-world examples\, and innovative strategies to help you find and protect these paths to privilege through an identity-centric approach.
