User Access — Leveraging the Right Technologies
The path to a stronger IAM strategy lies within an agile digital system. CISOs are often challenged with keeping an entire company up to date, as well as identity-related breaches and core business operations being interrupted - but easy to use technology (when leveraged correctly) can be a game changer.
Join this Town Hall to discuss:
- What the essentials are for building an efficient IAM system
- The challenges faced when protecting remote workers’ environments
- Optimizing user experience when adopting a user access program
