May 16, 2023 – The Best of Both Worlds – Bill Morgan

ABOUT OUR EVENT

As the cybersecurity landscape continues to evolve, protecting organizations from daily cyber threats is becoming increasingly difficult. According to the Verizon Data Breach Investigation Report, over 90% of successful Windows breaches occur due to users having privileged access.
To avoid being included in this year’s report, it’s important to take a major step in cybersecurity planning by removing local Admin rights from end-users. However, this can be challenging as it may result in end-users becoming frustrated when they need to request updates.
Bill Morgan shares on a solution called “The Best of Both Worlds”, which aims to increase security while reducing end-user frustration. Learn more about this solution and how it can help you protect your organization from cyber threats.

From this session, you will gain a clear understanding of:

  • Potential ways to have better password hygiene

  • Why to have better password hygiene as an organization

  • Why you need to remove admin rights from everyone and better control administrator use
