Cybersecurity with IAM as the Cornerstone of a Robust Security Architecture (DE)

Discover how Identity Access Management (IAM) is the cornerstone of a strong IT security architecture. This German on-demand webinar explores the “Identity First” approach and demonstrates how core principles such as Zero Trust, Single Sign-On (SSO), Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), and the Least Privilege principle work together to reduce the attack surface effectively. The session also delves into the critical IAM segments IGA, AM/ IdP and PAM, highlighting their roles in building a comprehensive and cohesive security strategy – illustrated through an integrated big-picture framework.

In this on-demand webinar, IAM expert and product evangelist Detlef Sturm delves into the pivotal role of Identity Access Management (IAM) as a cornerstone of a resilient cybersecurity framework.

Webinar Overview

With the rise in cyberattacks and increasingly sophisticated threat landscapes, cybersecurity has become a critical priority. At the heart of modern strategies lies the management of digital identities and their permissions. The “Identity First” concept positions identity protection as the foundation of security architecture, surpassing traditional measures such as device, network, or firewall protection.

The evolution of this approach into a “Zero Trust” model introduces the principle of inherent mistrust for all users and devices, even within the security perimeter. This necessitates continuous identity verification. Since identities are the primary focus of security, measures such as Single Sign-On (SSO), Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and the Least Privilege principle are indispensable for minimizing organizational attack surfaces.

IAM is a critical enabler of these practices, especially in light of regulatory requirements like NIS2 and DORA. The IAM landscape is structured around three key segments:

  • Identity Governance and Administration (IGA): Responsible for the centralized management of identities and permissions, distributing these to relevant applications. Authorization typically occurs within the applications themselves.

  • Access Management/ Identity Provider (AM/ IdP): Provides centralized authentication services, including SSO, MFA, and other identity-related functionalities.

  • Privilege Access Management (PAM): Focuses on the oversight and management of privileged identities and accounts.

Each of these segments plays an integral role in advancing the “Identity First” approach and fortifying cybersecurity frameworks.

This webinar illustrates how IAM components function as a comprehensive shield against cyber threats. Through a step-by-step process, it builds a big-picture perspective, showcasing the interconnections and synergies among IAM principles and components, ultimately fostering a cohesive and robust security architecture.
