A comprehensive identity and access management (IAM) strategy has become a necessary component of IT industries. Effective IAM solutions can help organizations improve staff productivity while also improving their cybersecurity postures. Unfortunately, with the rise of cloud computing and an increase in remote work, IAM is becoming increasingly complex and challenging.

The IAM challenges IT organizations are facing

Strengthening password security

Due to the widespread use of cloud-based applications, employees have to remember an increasing number of passwords, leading to password fatigue. The frustration of having to remember numerous passwords pushes employees to use weak and repetitive passwords. Additionally, many employees forget their passwords and end up seeking help from their IT admins, which slows down employee productivity.

Weak and repetitive passwords have been a gateway to many data breaches. According to Verizon's 2021 Data Breach Investigations Report, poor password security contributed to 81% of all data breaches.

AD360 enables IT admins to enforce custom password policies and eliminate password-related help desk tickets by allowing employees to self-reset their passwords, unlock accounts, and self-update their AD profiles.

Monitoring user behavior and preventing malicious activities

It can be challenging for IT admins to detect compromised accounts, privilege escalations, data breaches, and violations of security policies in real time. The longer a data breach remains undetected, the more damage it can cause and the higher the costs will be to rectify it. To prevent delays in detecting data breaches, IT admins need to deploy solutions that can notify them in real time if an employee is involved in malicious activities.

Admins can spot malicious activities that indicate a cyberattack by utilizing AD360's UBA. AD360 sends instant notifications via email or SMS when there is a sudden spike in file accesses and automatically shuts down infected devices.

Implementing a centralized IAM solution

The need to gain an overall view of IAM is paramount for IT organizations. Having siloed IAM solutions can be unreliable and lower productivity, because these solutions don't communicate with each other. Having a centralized IAM solution enables admins to manage all IAM processes from a single dashboard, creating a single source of information and allowing them to monitor users and data throughout their entire IT infrastructure. A central IAM solution can also make compliance administration and automation of IAM tasks easier and faster.

Admins can start resolving their IAM challenges within on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments from a single console using AD360's simple, easy-to-use interface.
