Cyber attackers are logging in using weak or compromised passwords, moving across the network to gain privileged access to steal data and cover their tracks. These are challenges companies are facing today which drive the need for them to be informed about the threats they are infected with and the security technology to secure their infrastructure.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A\nstudy conducted by Centrify, a cloud-ready Zero Trust Privilege provider,\nshowed that 66% of organizations are still getting breached on an average of\nfive times or more a year as the attack surface continues to increase. Privilege\nabuse is the leading cause of data breach where 80% of breaches involve privileged\ncredential misuse. This happens despite spending large amount on IT security\nand risk management in 2019. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The\nNational Privacy Commission of the Philippines said 53% of data breaches in the\ncountry can be traced to employee negligence against the 47% that is attributed\nto hackers and cybercriminals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To\nhelp stop the causes of breaches, Centrify has redefined the legacy approach to\nPrivileged Access Management by delivering cloud-ready Zero Trust Privilege to\nsecure infrastructure, DevOps, cloud, containers, Big Data and other modern enterprise\nattack surfaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The\nCentrify Zero Trust Privilege works by helping customers grant least privilege\naccess based on verifying who is requesting access, the context of the request,\nand the risk of the access environment. The implementation of least privilege\naccess minimizes the attack surface, improves audit and compliance visibility,\nand reduces risk, complexity and costs for the modern, hybrid enterprise.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike\nthe traditional network model of \u201ctrust but verify\u201d which relied on\nwell-defined boundaries, the Zero Trust Privilege mandates a \u201cnever trust,\nalways verify, enforce least privilege\u201d approach to privileged access, from\ninside or outside the network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The\nZero Trust Privilege may help organizations reduce the risk of becoming a data\nbreach victim. Enterprises may consider the Privileged Access Management approach\nby implementing password vaults, leaving gaps that can easily be exploited.\nZero Trust Privilege combines password vaulting with brokering of identities,\nmulti-factor authentication enforcement and \u201cjust enough\u201d privilege, all while\nsecuring remote access and monitoring of all privileged sessions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A study conducted by Centrify, a cloud-ready Zero Trust Privilege provider, showed that 66% of organizations are still getting breached on an average of five times or more a year as the attack surface continues to increase.
