The need to secure our digital identities remains one of the most urgent tasks facing our digital ecosystem.
Pivotal IT is proud to be returning as a Champion Organization to help support the initiative by providing information and resources for our clients and the public. With cybersecurity incidents, particularly involving compromised credentials, persisting as a leading cause of data breaches and account takeovers, the event aims to educate business leaders, IT decision-makers, and the public on the importance of identity management.
“According to a recent report, identity-related incidents continue to plague organizations with an alarming 90% reporting one in the last 12 months,” stated Jeff Reich, Executive Director of IDSA. “Protecting digital identities has never been more important in the fight against increasingly savvy cyberattacks. And while managing and securing identities continues to be called out as a top priority by organizations, meaningful shifts in proactive investment and leadership are necessary to reduce risk. Identity Management Day is an opportunity for all of us to evaluate our role in protecting our digital ecosystem. Whether acting as consumers or employees or partners, our online behaviors matter and we need to #BeIdentitySmart every day.”
