Preparing for the future: Navigating an identify-based approach to data security
The saying that ‘data is the lifeblood of an organisation’ may feel like it is over-used within the security space, but as the threat landscape continues to evolve, sensitive company data is at an increased risk of being breached. Without a robust data management strategy in place, data is not always guaranteed to be accessible, integrable or protected.
Exploring the relationship between identity and data security
In 2006, British Mathematician, Clive Humby, boldly claimed that "data is the new oil", referring to how important information is to businesses of all sizes. Now, in 2023, Humby's prediction has primarily been made true, with companies spending incredible amounts of money to collect, store, and analyse this data. Data is now essential to do business, with it being used to fuel business decisions, from better understanding the consumer, to enacting digital transformation at a larger scale.

At the start of the millennium, cybersecurity was significantly less complex.

Why Dynamic Authorisation is Becoming Key to the Zero Trust Security Model
For organisations everywhere, zero trust represents a paradigm shift in the way they approach security. Traditionally, networks have operated under the assumption that all users are trusted until proven otherwise, but zero trust takes a different approach. It assumes no user can be trusted and requires all users to prove their identity—even those from inside the network.
Island Hopping in the Supply Chain – A Paradise for Cybercriminals - Cybersecurity Magazine
Cybercriminals are notoriously good at the art of uncovering the paths of least resistance that lead to an organisation’s valuable assets and confidential information. To counter this, security professionals have introduced more robust and sophisticated measures to make it harder work for attackers to succeed.
