Access Security Leader Delivers
Secure-by-Design Solution to Address Public Breaches of Legacy
Identity & Access Management Vendors
NEW
YORK, May 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Beyond
Identity, the leading provider of passwordless, phishing-resistant
MFA, today announced the release of its Secure
Access Platform, a secured-by-design solution engineered to
protect organizations from the sophisticated and evolving landscape
of credential and access-based attacks. This announcement comes at
a critical time when industry-trusted Single-Sign-On (SSO) and
Identity and Access Management (IAM) tools are increasingly
compromised, as evidenced by recent high-profile breaches involving
major players like Okta and Microsoft.
Beyond Identity's Secure Access Platform is a game-changer,
crafted to be a standalone alternative to legacy SSO/IAMs or an
integrated platform built to harden the security posture of
existing SSO/IAMs. It addresses urgent security needs by combining
passwordless, phish-resistant MFA with innovative SSO and risk
detection capabilities, ensuring thorough management and mitigation
of access risks with a platform that can make security
guarantees.
"We have seen the vulnerability of legacy access management
platforms in a series of terrible incidents concerning Okta, and
with the recent CISA CSRB report stating major concerns with
Microsoft's identity management system, as it played a critical
role in China's attack on
Microsoft cloud email services," said Jasson Casey, CEO of Beyond Identity. "This
challenging security environment demands a comprehensive disruption
of workforce access management and highlights the necessity for
organizations to implement identity and access management tools
that are inherently secure."
Innovative Features Addressing Modern Security Needs
- Secure Single Sign-On (SSO): Optimized for zero-trust
architectures, providing a secure by design, simple to administer,
and easy-to-use passwordless user experience.
- Continuous Authentication: Validate user and device
security compliance before authentication and continuously, even
during active sessions, to account for risk over time, setting a
new standard in access security.
- Passwordless, Phish-Resistant MFA: Eliminate phishing as
a threat to organizations even if users and admins click on
malicious links.
- Device Posture Assurance: Gain visibility and control
over security compliance across all devices, including unmanaged
devices, providing comprehensive defenses against external
threats
- Robust Integration Ecosystem: Get more out of your
security stack investments by using all risk signals to make
risk-based access decisions. Shift security left by not only adding
detection and response capabilities to prevention.
