The New Perimeter

In a recent episode of Threat Vector, I spoke with Jamie Fitz-Gerald, Sr. Director of Product Management at Okta, about the crucial role of identity security in the hybrid work era. With employees accessing resources from various locations, identity has become the new perimeter, necessitating robust controls like multifactor authentication (MFA) and passwordless authentication. Jamie emphasized that identity is the cornerstone of a zero trust security strategy, where every user, device, and application is verified before access is granted. He also highlighted emerging trends like phishing-resistant authentication and identity proofing as vital tools in the fight against cyber threats. Tune in to the full interview to learn more about Jamie's insights and the future of identity security.
