According to the Identity Defined Security Alliance (IDSA), 79% of organizations have experienced an identity-related security breach in the last two years. And according to the Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, 61% of all breaches were a result of stolen credentials, whether through social engineering or brute force attacks.

You use digital identities in your business, and they can open you up to a lot of risk if you don’t handle them properly. Identity Management Day, founded by IDSA, aims to educate business leaders, IT decision makers, and the public about the importance of managing and securing digital identities.
Julie Smith, Executive Director of the IDSA explains, “The reality is that the data breaches you frequently read about are most often a result of identity abuse – SolarWinds, Colonial Pipeline, the list goes on. These breaches often leverage poor identity management, such as weak passwords, not leveraging multi-factor authentication and single sign-on, leaving standing privileges open, and orphaned accounts.”

Infinity, Inc. is proud to be a Champion for Identity Management Day and has useful information to help protect you personally and professionally.

CEO Chuck Brown says, “One of the worst aspects of a breach is how often it was preventable. We all want convenience, but when it comes to cybersecurity, there is a high premium attached to choosing what’s easy over what’s right.”
