We’re identity experts. We’re data experts.
Now we’re combining them.

The average time it takes to detect and contain a data breach is 197 days; the average cost and value of lost business from a breach is $8.06 million. What if you could prevent this from happening at your business?

Many organizations think they can completely prevent breaches by using traditional methods, or even newer solutions like SIEM. But without a true security intelligence solution, the chances are slim.

Endpoint protection is only the beginning.

Traditional security measures such as anti-virus, endpoint protection, and data loss prevention tools are a necessary starting point for securing your business, but attackers are smart, resourceful, and persistent. Eventually they will get past those defenses (maybe they already have), and will get into your corporate network, taking over machines, accounts, and credentials in their path.

You deserve more.

With all of time and money that has been put into developing and maintaining corporate data, services, and infrastructure, you need to be able to detect when an attacker makes it through, reduce the attack surface they have to work with, and understand what they’re doing when they are there.

The perfect formula.

Most companies have the ingredients for a great security intelligence solution, but they lack the knowledge and expertise to realize and execute it.

A security intelligence solution combines the information contained within your user management and provisioning systems with data provided by security monitoring systems to offer a holistic view into every activity taking place within your organization’s user accounts. Think this doesn’t apply to your organization because you haven’t invested in enterprise software for identity management? Expertise from knowledgeable workers is still a valuable resource, and it can be incorporated into an identity intelligence solution.

The combination of these systems is key. While both identity and security monitoring solutions, whether homegrown or commercial tools, have their important place in your business on their own, leveraging the combination of them will take your account security to the next level.

An identity solution alone, whether a single commercial tool or combination of homegrown and COTS tools, is an extremely important baseline for your organization. Governing which users have access to which applications – and how they obtain said access – is crucial. But the data provided in even the best automated identity solutions doesn’t dive in deep enough.

Likewise, a security monitoring solution on its own can provide you with information that might otherwise be nearly impossible to uncover. But often, it has no context. How do you know which bits of information from your security monitoring solution are the most critical or urgent?

The Perfect Formula

Uncover brand new information.

Combining identity and security monitoring solutions can shine light on user account information and related activities you’re missing today. An identity intelligence solution can:

  • Improve understanding and investigation of user behavior across all application and system accounts, whether on-premises or in the cloud
  • Improve understanding and investigation of peer group behavior based on shared business roles or job codes
  • Accounts that are not being used anymore
  • Passwords, passcodes, and PINs that have not been recently changed
  • Active accounts for terminated or inactive users
  • Accounts currently being used for terminated or inactive users
  • Provisioning activity outside of authorized channels and processes
  • Accounts being created or re-enabled for users that are inactive or terminated
  • Accounts being created that are not expected or associated to an account owner
  • Accounts being disabled or privileges removed for business-critical service and application accounts
  • Access changes that violate regulatory or security compliance policies
  • Correlate security alerts for different accounts belonging to the same user
  • Escalate security alerts that involve privileged users and/or accounts
  • Filter alerts on user behavior changes due to newly granted access (e.g. promotions, job transfers, or access requests)
  • Filter alerts on admin behavior changes due to new/changing provisioning needs (e.g. hires, terminations, re-hires, or manually provisioned systems)

Protect your customers’ data.

A security intelligence solution isn’t just about you. It’s about your customers. Protect their data by protecting the most vulnerable entry points to it: your internal accounts.

Are you next?

Let’s lay out your foundation.

If you already have strong identity governance and security monitoring tools in place, you’re in a great position to start security intelligence. Next, you should consider how the two can best be combined to detect and prioritize these types of important security risks.

But if you’re thinking…

"We don't have mature identity governance."
"We don't have user management and provisioning."
"We don't have security monitoring"
