#S02EP10 | Zeroing Trust: Identity Threats, the New Attack Surface | Sudarshan Pisupati

The proliferation of digital identities and access points has increased the attack surface, making it difficult to monitor and secure user identities effectively. The rising sophistication of cyber threats, including identity theft and credential-based attacks, demands proactive measures to detect and respond to these threats promptly. Additionally, compliance requirements and data protection regulations necessitate robust identity security to avoid legal and financial repercussions. 

All the above result in growing the complexity of managing user identities, especially in large enterprises and hence require automation and real-time monitoring capabilities to manage Identity threats, ensuring the organization can effectively safeguard its digital assets and sensitive data.
