“The surge in high-profile cyberattacks in recent months has shown how seemingly easy it is for bad actors -- whether human or bots -- to infiltrate an organization’s data security infrastructure, creating chaos for the company and potential harm for consumers,” said David Pignolet, founder and CEO of SecZetta. “Many of these attacks originated through weaknesses in these organizations’ risk-based identity access and lifecycle strategies for non-employee populations.”

  • Many of these attacks originated through weaknesses in these organizations risk-based identity access and lifecycle strategies for non-employee populations.
  • Safeguarding an organization from cybercrime has become vastly more difficult given how digitized, and correspondingly interconnected, the world has become.
  • Survey results show U.S. adults believe some industries are better at mitigating cyberattacks than others, but none are doing particularly well.
