Digital Identities Have Evolved – Cyber Strategies Should Too

Identity-related cyberattacks have increased significantly, affecting over 90% of organizations. The attacks exploit digital identities, which now contain a wide variety of personally identifiable information. Cybercriminals use this data to perpetrate identity theft and fraud. Session cookies are often targeted, bypassing traditional authentication protections. Experts suggest organizations need to shift from a device-centric to an identity-centric approach, implementing stringent post-infection remediation strategies and proactively monitoring the darknet to mitigate risks and protect user data.
