On a more explicitly enterprise level, “IoT technologies that have a rapid return on investment (ROI) are the most likely to take off first, and that means “reducing costs through automation,” said Kayne McGladrey, director of Integral Partners, an identity and access management (IAM) consultant firm.
Gartner estimates that 63% of all IAM products will be thrown out in the next two years as the ‘requirements have changed’ since the date of original purchase. The challenge for new and existing IAM programs is to establish and maintain a strong justification for the program’s continued existence. One retail client recognized this potential risk to their IAM program and took a novel approach to clearly illustrating the benefits of an IAM program.
“Tying data security to user identities is the easiest, lowest-effort way to modernize security for small to medium businesses,” says Kayne McGladrey (@kaynemcgladrey), cybersecurity strategist at Ascent Solutions (@meetascent). “Establishing data security based on user identity means that data remains secure regardless of storage location or medium.”
