Account takeover, lateral movement, and ransomware spread are a prominent cyber risk. To gain resiliency against these attacks, organizations strive to have the ability to prevent\u2014in real time\u2014malicious access with compromised credentials to their resources. The common practice today is to lean on solutions such as MFA and PAM, as well as manual monitoring of service accounts, to get this protection. However, surveys of identity security teams reveal that in most cases, these solutions fail to deliver the required level of protection. This failure manifests in the vast majority of organizations experiencing an identity-related data breach, as well as a shared notion among identity teams that they don\u2019t have the ability to thwart such attacks in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-vivid-purple-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.silverfort.com\/state-of-identity-attack-surface-2023\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Download from Silverfort<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Research into how organizations are protecting against identity threats, with an emphasis on the efficacy of real-time protections to prevent malicious access with compromised credentials.
