The problem of securing the modern workforce goes beyond occasional spats between IT and security. The real problems we see are user credentials under constant attack, alongside attempts to harvest and exploit enterprise data. Plus the cloud resources that workforces need are tough to secure, especially when deployed outside of IT-led processes. In light of these issues, corporations need a way to securely provide always-on cloud access for users while safeguarding enterprise data anywhere it goes.

We are proud to announce that Keeper Security has been recognized as the 2022 Privileged Access Management Solution of the Year in the 6th annual Cybersecurity Breakthrough Awards. The Tech Breakthrough organization, a global market intelligence and recognition platform for innovative technology companies, conducts the awards program “to honor excellence and recognize the creativity, hard work and success of cybersecurity companies, technologies and products.”

‍OAuth (pronounced "oh-auth”) is an authorization framework that allows an application to request “secure delegated access” to third-party systems on behalf of the apps’ users or the “resource owner.” Simply put, with OAuth, users can grant websites and applications access to their information on other websites without providing important credentials like passwords. OAuth stands for "Open Authorization”.

Passwords are everywhere — and nobody likes them. For users, they are a pain to remember and manage. For businesses, they continue to be a primary source of data breaches, both on premises and in the cloud. In fact, the 2022 Verizon DBIR reports that credential theft was involved in nearly half of all cyberattacks, including third-party breaches, phishing attacks and basic web application attacks.

Internet of things (IoT) application and rollout has been rapid, disrupting and streamlining processes in a variety of industries, However, it has created a situation where “today’s IoT security is lightweight compared to enterprise application security” , creating a need for IoT security solutions than many of the insufficient and fragmented options.

If you’re an IT manager or business owner, chances are external security is always top of your mind. But lately, managing access control of documents for employees has become just as necessary to limit access to information and information processing systems. While cybersecurity breaches are a menacing threat, internal security problems can be equally devastating, making access control measures necessary to mitigate the risk of access without authorization.
