Third-Party Identities: The Weakest Link in Your Cybersecurity Supply Chain
- Third party supply chain is the weakest link which adds third-party risk affecting each partner's security, making identity and access management more challenging
- The lack of visibility in identities logging in daily coupled with unsafe credentials of nearly two to one non-employees could add detrimental risk to the organization
- Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a solution to solve this problem, which can manage upstream vendors and third-party risks securely without additional technical difficulties
- Companies engaging in B2B or B2B2X activities require IAM solutions to cover compliance and to maintain the trust of their clients
- With Zero Trust guiding cybersecurity, IAM is a foundational pillar in dealing with third-party risk, eliminating stolen credentials as the prime point of compromise, especially when nearly 9 out of 10 breaches originate from stolen credentials
- IAM solution can be the perfect solution to not only safeguard against inherent third-party risks but also help organizations scale, integrate with other systems, and overcome challenges in digitization by providing policy configuration, Multi-factor authentication (MFA), Single sign-on (SSO), orchestrate user journey flows and more
- Implementing IAM sooner rather than later is a big win - it streamlines processes such as onboarding and login, establishing a curated trust and delineate who has access to valuable information
- Security of our digital presence is more critical than ever. Protect your organization by Implementing Identity and Access Management
