| | October- 2019ENTERPRISE SECURITY6With end-user security threats taking newer forms each time, identity and access management (IAM) has taken center stage as the essential cybersecurity demand in recent years. Thus, every organization is trying to catch up to the latest trends in the IAM market in an effort to effectively deal with rising security issues.When it comes to authentication, companies can no longer rely on a single set of credentials such as passwords for accessing applications. In fact, multifactor authentication is becoming the norm, and users are required to sign in using multiple options other than passwords, such as PIN, fingerprint, or facial recognition, to name a few. IT administrators can also implement conditional access for users based on their login location or other attributes. There has also been a recent trend of migrating user identity data and management to cloud services. Identity management as a service is a scalable service that is gaining popularity as providers handle the bulk of management tasks, allowing a business' IT department to focus on other priorities.Many IAM vendors are leveraging machine learning and artificial intelligence to perform behavioral data analysis, and in turn, improve security measures. These technologies can help analyze user login attempts and identify suspicious behavior, such as multiple failed attempts to log in. However, hackers have begun to use AI to their advantage as well. The bad actors are using AI to mimic the acceptable behavior of users to gain access to data. As such, it is becoming a never-ending battle for IAM vendors to strike out cyber criminals. Understanding these trends, in this edition of Enterprise Security Magazine, we are featuring companies that offer innovative identity and access management solutions along with insightful articles from industry leaders.
