Cybersecurity doesn’t start with a firewall.

Cybersecurity doesn’t start with a firewall.

It starts with identity.

Most attacks today don’t target infrastructure.

They target people and their access credentials.

Stolen login credentials are still the number one entry point.

And it doesn’t matter whether you’re a small business, a city, or a corporation.

What we see most often in practice:

• failure to follow password policies,
• using the same passwords for all internal systems,
• underestimating the importance of protecting user credentials,
• insufficient training,
• failure to use multi-factor authentication.

But there’s a better way!

Secure. Clear. Automated.

For example, using multi-factor authentication (MFA).

It’s actually safer and easier than remembering 10 different passwords.

A modern approach is based on three pillars:

• strong user identity
• passwordless multi-factor authentication
• centralized management of certificates and access
