| WHAT: | Access security is vulnerable to neglect and abuse by insiders because it is dependent on managers and employees to attest to privileges. User access security is intended to provide preventive controls against inappropriate access to sensitive information. However, user access security software does not provide the granular visibility into activity necessary to discover vulnerabilities or to detect patterns indicating privilege abuse and data theft by insiders or intruders posing as insiders. Alan Norquist will discuss how Veriphyr delivers the contextual intelligence to determine if user access security is being undermined or if business imperatives require changes to a user’s privileges. Veriphyr analyzes identity, activity and privileges data from applications, databases, servers, networks, remote access systems, and even automated physical access control systems – to uncover vulnerabilities and abuse, as well as, identify their root cause across all layers of the user access security infrastructure. | ||
