Beyond Identity, a leading provider of passwordless, phishing-resistant MFA, has announced the formal release of ‘Zero Trust Authentication’ (ZTA) as a subcategory of Zero Trust technology, together with the launch of the Worldwide Zero Trust Leadership series of events that will run throughout 2023.
Bringing together industry-leading security technologies and integrators, Beyond Identity, Palo Alto Networks, CrowdStrike, Optiv, World Wide Technology, Guidepoint Security, BeyondTrust, Ping Identity and Climb Channel Solutions will enable organisations to move towards secure authentication designed to advance the Zero Trust strategies of global 5000 companies.
Zero Trust Authentication has been developed in response to the failure of traditional authentication methods – a problem exacerbated by the increasing number of cyberattacks. Adopting ZTA will allow organisations to overcome the limitations of passwords and legacy multi-factor authentication (MFA) and implement more robust security strategies.
To achieve this, the ZTA approach includes components such as Beyond Identity’s risk scoring and continuous authentication capabilities, which significantly enhances the level of protection offered.
“Through close technology collaboration and now go-to-market collaboration in this Zero Trust Leadership series, we are delivering strong authentication built for an ‘always on’ Zero Trust world coupled with the practical advice and best practices so that enterprises can finally close identity and access management vulnerabilities,” said Tom Jermoluk, CEO and Co-founder, Beyond Identity.
