(Panel Discussion) Identifying an Identity Crisis in…

About the Session

Paula Januszkiewicz says “…a shift is happening now: stealing identities is becoming easier than exploiting a vulnerability. Consequently, identity-based attacks will likely become even more common in the near future.”

In our final session of our 3-part webinar series we will dive deeper into The 2024 Microsoft Vulnerabilities Report with 4 of the key expert commentators from the report. Our live panel session brings together these notable industry figures to debate their analysis into the critical vulnerabilities & identity-based threats facing organizations today.

By attending you will:

Discover what the experts think about the changing Microsoft threat landscape, which vulnerabilities and trends concern them and what their recommendations to stay secure are.
Hear why attackers are re-focusing their efforts on exploiting identities, rather than Microsoft software vulnerabilities.
Learn from real-life examples of the growing challenges organizations face around managing identities and identity security.
Engage in live Q&A + candid discussions directly with the 2024 Microsoft Vulnerabilities Report commentators.
