5 Identity Attacks that Exploit Your Broken Authentication

March 1, 2018

Traditional authentication methods that rely on usernames and password integrity are widely considered to be broken. As organizations begin to move more sensitive data to cloud apps to take advantage of the productivity gains, the traditional perimeter expands to wherever the user is logging in from. In other words, the identity becomes the perimeter. Threat agents have recognized this as a security gap and are exploiting your employees' tendency to reuse passwords across personal and professional accounts, among other weaknesses. Let’s discuss the types of identity attacks that are most likely to impact your organization.

Edge computing and deployment strategies for communication service providers

whitePaper | February 26, 2020

Communication Service Providers (CSP) are looking for new revenue sources to grow their businesses, especially in the enterprise area which will be increasingly important in the future. According to the Ericsson report “5G for business: a 2030 market compass”, by 2030 up to USD 700 billion of the 5G-enabled, business-to-business value could be addressed by CSPs. With the introduction of 5G and edge computing, they are now in a better position to provide new offerings both to enterprises that need to automate industrial processes and to consumers who require improved user experiences for on-line gaming. Edge computing provides distributed computing and storage resources closer to the location where it is needed and targets new business opportunities that provide support for specific application use cases. Some examples of use case areas are augmented and virtual reality, manufacturing and automotive. The innovation rate in this part of the application ecosystem will be significant going forward. The edge opportunity should be seen in a larger context of the enterprise opportunity, where edge computing will be an enabler for many broader use cases, for example within the Internet of Things (IoT) and potentially bundled with other enterprise offerings such as 5G private networks.
