New research from Descope confirms that subpar authentication methods and legacy systems for customer identity translates to negative business impacts. <em>&#8230; 82% of survey respondents citing at least some negative business impact.

Almost all cyber insurers have gone all-in on the importance of identity security controls when assessing insurance eligibility and pricing, per a new report from Delinea. <em>Among the identity controls that matter most, respondents\u00a0cited Privileged Access Management (PAM) as the top differentiator\u00a0(41%)\u00a0in how underwriters viewed their insurability,\u00a0followed by Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) (38%),\u00a0and third-party and vendor access controls (32%)<\/em>. <a href=\"https:\/\/delinea.com\/news\/identity-security-controls-central-to-cyber-insurance-decisions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Delinea<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>&#8230; and AI adoption is pretty important, too<\/strong>. From the same report by Delinea, the use of AI in security controls is factoring heavily in insurance decisions. <em>A significant 86% of respondents said their insurers offered premium reductions or credits for their use of AI in security controls. Among those whose overall cyber insurance costs decreased in the past year, 64% credited AI adoption as a key factor. The\u00a0most cited\u00a0premium influencer was AI-powered threat detection and monitoring (63%), followed closely by behavioral analytics and auditing (59%)<\/em>. <a href=\"https:\/\/delinea.com\/news\/identity-security-controls-central-to-cyber-insurance-decisions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Delinea<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>CYE&#8217;s new AI capabilities<\/strong>. CYE introduced new AI capabilities for managing cyber exposures, with the intent of shrinking time-to-mitigate.

AegisAI released a new report on how AI is impacting spearphishing, including significant growth in annual phishing volumes, use of compromised infrastructure, and more. <em>AI-generated attacks eliminate every one of these red flags&#8230; They are contextually relevant, capable of referencing a recent company project, a colleague&#8217;s name, or a target&#8217;s recent post on LinkedIn.
