Tools for detecting and responding to potential threats post authentication

If a data breach happens at your organization, you can’t afford to compromise on the speed and efficacy of your response. For the best possible defense against cybersecurity threats, security leaders need a comprehensive approach to Identity-powered security that supports risk mitigation in scenarios when would-be attackers have already exploited…
