  • Complimentary new assessment–powered by Identity Security Insights–provides actionable recommendations to secure against vulnerabilities and help organizations tackle identity threats

  • New assessment quickly reveals hidden Paths to Privilege, employing AI-based detection, and provides an initial set of prioritized findings to help guide security decisions

BeyondTrust, the global cybersecurity leader protecting Paths to Privilege, today launched the new Identity Security Risk Assessment, a free service designed to illuminate identity attack surfaces, so organizations can better manage risk and reduce vulnerabilities. This initiative underscores BeyondTrustโ€™s commitment to support companies worldwide in understanding and mitigating identity-based security threats.

The combination of diverse, but hyper-connected, identity landscapes–spanning cloud, hybrid, and on-premise environments–and the proliferation of identities, accounts, and entitlements has pushed effective identity security out of reach for most organizations. While identity is the connective tissue that enables modern work, itโ€™s also the vector attackers exploit most to breach organizations, withย 90% of organizations experiencing an identity-related incidentย in the last year.
