5 Ways Zero Trust Maximizes Identity Security
Stolen credentials continue to be a primary method for attackers to gain unauthorized access, leading to privilege escalation and lateral movement within networks. Specops' analysis highlights how identity-first Zero Trust architectures can mitigate these risks by enforcing strict access controls and device verification. Organizations without robust identity security measures are particularly vulnerable to credential-based attacks.
