Identity and Access Management Fundamentals for Small Business

Identity and Access Management is a fundamental and critical cybersecurity capability for businesses of all sizes. To protect your business from fraud and unauthorized system and data access, you want to take steps to ensure that only the right people and technologies have the right level of access to the right resources at the right time.

For many busy small business owners, the use of passwords has been the primary method for locking down access to sensitive systems and data. However, passwords alone are not effective for protecting your data from most attackers. They have become too easy for threat actors to exploit at scale and with limited effort. So that leaves us with the question: what can a small business owner with limited resources do to protect their systems and information from unauthorized access? 

During this webinar, we’ll take it back to the fundamentals to discuss practical steps small businesses can take to enhance their identity and access management, resulting in a stronger, more resilient business in the face of increasing cybersecurity risks. We will cover:

• Current guidance and leading-practices for multi-factor authentication (MFA), including phishing-resistant MFA.
• Identity and Access Management approaches to consider as your business grows. 
• How identity and access management is covered in the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0.
