The Zero Trust Privileged Access Managements responsibility in cloud security will get spotlighted by Centrify at GITEX 2019

Centrify, leading cloud-ready Zero Trust Privilege supplier has announced its involvement in the GITEX 2019 Technology Week, which will be held at the Dubai International Trading Center from 6 to 10 October 2019. The company will be presenting its "zero trust Privilege Services" cloud-ready strategy to access privileges from within or outside the network and promote Zero Trust's "never trust, always verifies and enforces the least privilege."

The leading cause of most data breaches today is privileged access abuse. Cyber-attackers dont hack in anymore theyre logging in using weak, default, stolen, or otherwise compromised credentials, and then are moving laterally across the network to gain further privileged access to steal data while covering their tracks. Analysis of recent breaches highlights the fact that most organizations are still not prepared to protect themselves against identity-based threats. Cyber-attacks will only grow in virulence and volume until they truly prioritize Privileged Access Management. At GITEX 2019, Centrify plans to demonstrate to visitors that their organizations, through the control of privileged access and the minimization of attack surfaces, can considerably strengthen their safety positions and reduce the risk of a violation, "said Andy Heather of Centrify, CEO of EMEA.

It is estimated that 80% of information violations are linked to privileged access abuses, according to Forrester. This is particularly true for new attack surfaces such as cloud settings, which quickly become preferred targets for cyber attackers who want to take advantage of the extended threat scenario. A recent Centrify survey found that 45 percent of organizations don't secure privileged access controls for government and private cloud workloads.
By applying Zero Trust Privilege, companies can tackle the number one cause of today's information violations privileged access abuse and minimize assaults by avoiding wildfire or at least by restricting the hacker's late mode. Centrifys Cloud-ready Zero Trust Privilege supports organizations to secure access to facilities, DevOps, Cloud, container, Big Data and other contemporary attack areas.

"The Zero Trust Privilege from Centrify's cloud ready handles applications which are not only people but also machines, services and APIs. With our Zero Trust Privilege, clients will be able to give them less privilege, depending on checking the requesting access, the context and the access environment's risk, "adds Heather.

Centrify will underline the significance of "Zero Trust" at GITEX Technology Week 2019 and how organizations ' Zero Trust Privileges can be implemented to minimize attack surfaces, enhance visibility of audits and compliance and lower risks, complexity and cost to the contemporary, hybrid company.

"GITEX offers the ideal platform for meetings with Middle East and African clients and associates in a single place to find the recent cyber security services and solutions. We hope to educate our clients on the changing threat environment and significance of Zero Trust Privilege and to strengthen our national channel network as well as showcase our Zero Trust Privilege services, "Heather said.

At GITEX Technology Week 2019, Centrify is going to join with its distributor StarLink. Global senior executives and safety specialists will talk with customer and associates and will share their worldwide achievements with the Centrify Zero Trust Privilege Services at Stand SR-J1 Sheikh Rashid Hall with organizations that have explored Zero Trust Privilege.
