The future of access management depends on balancing strong security with a smooth user experience. In today’s hybrid, cloud-first environment, organizations must stop sophisticated attacks without slowing their workforce.
To explore this challenge, Sennovate teamed up with CyberArk for an in-depth webinar featuring Mike Rohlfs, CyberArk’s Channel Solutions Engineer.
Together, we examined how identity-centric access management is evolving. We also introduced solutions designed to protect every identity across the enterprise.
Watch the full webinar recording below to catch the live demo and key insights:
The Future of Access Management and Compromised Identity
Compromised identities drive many modern security breaches. Attackers may target a standard user, a privileged administrator, or a third-party partner.
The stakes have never been higher. Consider these sobering industry statistics shared during our session:
- $3.92 Million: The average cost of a data breach.
- 279 Days: Organizations take an average of 279 days to identify and contain a breach. This delay gives attackers months to move laterally and search for privileged credentials.
- $150: The average cost associated with every single leaked record.
Traditional perimeter defenses are no longer enough. For example, cybercriminals exploit weak credentials and use social engineering. They may also purchase stolen credentials on the dark web.
Adaptive Access and the Future of Access Management
Security works best when it does not disrupt people. However, rigid authentication can cause MFA fatigue. As a result, users may seek workarounds that create new security gaps.
The future of access management relies on adaptive authentication, artificial intelligence, and User Behavioral Analytics (UBA). Instead of requesting multi-factor authentication (MFA) at every step, CyberArk’s identity platform calculates risk in real time:
- Low-Risk Actions: A recognized user, device, and location can access a low-risk app without constant MFA prompts.
- High-Risk Actions: An unusual location or unregistered device raises the risk. Therefore, the system immediately triggers a high-assurance MFA challenge.
Therefore, this intelligent automation applies the strongest security when and where it is needed. At the same time, it protects daily productivity.
CyberArk Secure Web Sessions for Access Management
One of the most exciting segments of our webinar was a live demonstration of CyberArk’s Secure Web Sessions (SWS).
Secure Web Sessions protects sensitive web applications while operating quietly in the background. Specifically, it provides:
- Continuous Authentication: Validating the user’s identity and device throughout the entire session.
- Step Recording: Capturing exact user actions and mouse clicks to create an easily searchable, audit-ready compliance trail.
- Session Protection and Automatic Halting: SWS shields browser sessions from malicious endpoint processes. In addition, it can halt or end a session when a user walks away.
Next Steps for the Future of Access Management
Securing an enterprise requires validation of every user and device. Whether resources are on-premises, in the cloud, or in a hybrid environment, Sennovate and CyberArk can help. Together, they support a unified, security-first identity strategy.
