CrowdStrike Extends Identity Security Capabilities to Stop Attacks in the Cloud

Two recent Microsoft breaches underscore the growing problem of cloud identity attacks and why it’s critical to stop them. While Microsoft Active Directory (AD) remains a prime target for attackers, cloud identity stores such as Microsoft Entra ID are also a target of opportunity. The reason is simple: Threat actors increasingly seek to mimic legitimate users in the target system. They can just as easily abuse identities from cloud identity providers as they can in on-premises AD environments.

Identity Management Day: Protecting your digital footprint

Identity Management Day occurs on the second Tuesday of April, April 9 this year. It was established by the Identity Defined Security Alliance in 2021 in collaboration with the National Cybersecurity Alliance. Its primary aim is to heighten awareness about the risks associated with the lax or incorrect handling of digital identities. Effective identity management practices help prevent identity theft, fraud, and data breaches, which can have devastating consequences for both individuals and organizations.

Cookies Beyond Browsers: How Session-Based Attacks Are Evolving
