What are the common identity attacks organizations face?
Organizations commonly face several identity attacks, including password spray attacks, phishing attempts, and breach replay attacks. These attacks are relatively easy to execute and can occur on a large scale. For instance, Microsoft deflects over 1,000 password attacks every second, highlighting the prevalence of these threats.
How important is multifactor authentication (MFA)?
Multifactor authentication (MFA) is crucial as it significantly reduces the risk of identity attacks. Currently, over 99.9% of compromised accounts lack MFA. Despite its importance, only 28% of users had an MFA session last month. Implementing MFA can effectively deflect many identity attacks, making it a fundamental aspect of a robust security posture.
What steps can organizations take to enhance their identity security?
Organizations should focus on several key strategies to enhance identity security: require multifactor authentication for all users, apply Conditional Access rules to applications, and limit on-premises exposure. Additionally, integrating security operations with identity efforts and adopting a cloud-first approach can help organizations respond more effectively to emerging threats.
