› You don’t want to be on CNN headline news
› Security has shifted from a Director/VP/CISO/CIO IT
problem to a CEO problem
› Data protection is a key concern
› Mobile and IoT present new challenges
› BYOD/user owned devices are here to stay
Assess the impact of cyberattacks

› Perimeter is long gone (Can you give a laptop with VPN
to every contractor and employee???)
› Identity has emerged as the new perimeter
› Holistic approaches for joiner, mover, leaver, attestation
and self service processes
› Unified treatment of Application, Data, Endpoint, and
Network access controls
Shift identity to the center of your threat
detection ecosystem

› IAM is essential for business
› General IAM future requirements
› B2E IAM requirements
› B2B IAM requirements
› B2C IAM requirements
› IAM for IoT
› Forrester’s predictions
Agenda

10
Digital
transformation
drives IAM

› Digital customer experience vs Security strength
› IAM must support profile and preference management
› IAM must protect privacy
› IAM must aid in helping protect sensitive data
› Mobile/any device support
› IAM must support BI
IAM is essential for today’s business and
digital transformation

› Consumer like user interface everywhere
› API security and availability of IAM services as an API
› Behavioral profiling built in
› Multimodal and multi target IAM (SaaS and on-prem IAM
policy servers to support cloud and on-prem workloads
› IAM becoming lightweight (microservices)
› Privacy and security must be built in
General IAM future requirements

› Cloud migration: It’s not longer a question of ‘if’ but more
like ‘how’ and ‘when’
› What data do you have?
› How sensitive is your data?
› Where is your data?
› How do you detect anomalies in accessing data
› Users
› Devices
› Apps
Get a grip on cloud apps and cloud platforms

› Encapsulate data with identity to protect it
› Context, relationship and activity based provisioning,
access management
› Federation built in between on-prem and cloud user
stores
› Adaptive authorization to reduce recertification burden
› Recertification, role management and governance are
the ultimate preemptive strike against data breaches
B2E IAM requirements

› Native organization and relationship management is a
must
› IDaaS will gain adoption for access and IMG
› PIM as a service to support IT administration
outsourcers and IaaS providers
› Custom and dynamic trust networks
B2B (Business to partners) IAM requirements

› Organization and relationship management
› Profile management plus self services, not just security
› MFA as a service, move to push notification from SMS
messages
› Continuous authentication based on behavioral
biometrics
› Wearables for MFA
B2C IAM requirements

› Massive scale
› Devices are the new kid on the block
• Lifecycle, authentication, biometrics, API
› IAM systems have to handle people, apps, systems and
devices
› Manage consent in IoT environments explicitly – this is
to protect data and privacy
› Authorization v2.0
IAM for IoT requirements

› Today’s environments are 10x-100x bigger than what we
had even 4-5 years ago
› 11 billion mobile devices
› 50-100 billion IoT connected devices (Forrester est.) –
hard to patch, easy to attack
› Using IoT devices to perpetrate DDoS attacks has
already been demonstrated in the Dyn DNS breach
Assess scale

› IAM suites becoming much more loosely coupled than today
› IDaaS will do provisioning, governance and attestation, not
just SSO
› B2C will spawn a new class of customer management
services
› Fraud management and IAM / access control integration is
key
› Behavioral profiling is to expand to certification and access
request management

SecureAuth 2017 Predictions
Stephen Cox, Chief Security Architect

Consolidation Amongst
Security Vendors
+ Too many security products
– Too many alerts, too much to digest
– Not enough budget
+ Products need to address multiple challenges
– Provide actionable alerts, not just data
– Help protect, detect and respond
+ Example: Analytics as a Feature
– Behavior analytics: product or feature?
– UEBA may disappear as a standalone
market segment

Identity Becomes a
Pillar of Security
+ Everest sized mountain of data cultivated from
breach analysis
– Screaming for wider adoption of risk
based authentication techniques
+ Stolen credentials are too easy to get
– Obtained on dark web, used to quietly log
in to an organization
+ Solving the visibility problem
– Identity currently a blind spot for many
organizations
– Adaptive Authentication helps protect,
detect and respond against breaches

the password has become a
"kind of a nightmare”
Prof. Fernando J. Corbato

dThe End of the Password
d
+ Passwords are a completely broken technology
+ Not just buzz - it is happening, and fast!
+ We have the technology to do this today

Fallout from the Yahoo Breach
+ What it means to the end of the password
+ The impacts in the security community
+ Large credential databases a gold mine to
aggressive threat actor groups

Another (Re)Emerging Threat - DDoS
+ DDoS is back!
– Poorly protected IoT devices are
to blame
– The Rise of Thingbots - David
Hobbs (Radware)
+ Doesn’t mean fewer attacks
leveraging stolen credentials
– DDoS a tactic, not a goal
+ Still relates to identity!
– The “default password” issue
– Poorly protected web properties

+ Can achieve MFA without a password
– Something you have, something you are
– Analyze risk - identity is a pillar of security
+ Leverage the push-to-accept approach
+ Increase security without impacting user
experience!
– Good for verticals with difficult and demanding
stakeholders
It’s Time To Go Passwordless
