Abstract
The number of workforce identities in the enterprise is growing at lightning speed with no slowdown in sight. Driven by a mix of forces ranging from digital transformation to mobile devices to IoT, this explosive growth in identities brings with it an increased risk of identity-related breaches. And these breaches can occur on many fronts — not just via phishing attacks, but social engineering schemes, brute force attacks, and more.
In this report, sponsored by the Identity Defined Security Alliance (IDSA), we examine the risks endangering enterprise identities and explore why some companies are doing better at securing those identities than others. Based on an online survey of security and identity professionals in the U.S. with more than 1,000 employees, the study investigates the benefits, challenges, and progress of enterprise efforts to adopt an identity-centric approach to security.
