Top 5 ways Identity Governance Strengthens your Security
In today’s rapidly expanding digital landscape, managing and securing access to sensitive data is increasingly crucial and complex. Identity-related vulnerabilities continue to be a leading cause of security incidents, with over 77% of breaches linked to Identity issues.
