What to Know About Achieving Identity Fabric Immunity

With owned identity data holding potential vulnerability, Identity Fabric Immunity has come into focus in the cybersecurity realm.

As companies increasingly understand the inherent value of their owned identity data, tech and security executives are also realizing its potential vulnerability. A disruption in a business’ IAM environment, or even a partial loss of data, can bring business to a grinding halt. With this keen focus on the value of identity data, it’s no wonder that Identity Fabric Immunity has become a trending topic in cybersecurity circles.

And yet, understanding identity fabric immunity can feel like navigating a mine field. In fact, when it's time to ramp up cybersecurity measures, the biggest hurdle can simply be grasping the complexities of identity fabric immunity.

When considering how to truly fortify your identity fabric, there are many components, from threat prevention and detection to having a fully executable disaster recovery (DR) plan. If you're interested in achieving identity fabric immunity sustainably, this article will help you navigate a failsafe solution to responding to attacks on your company’s most valuable asset: your identity data.

What is Identity Fabric Immunity?

Let's dive right in. Identity fabric immunity may be a trending term, but what does it mean?

In simple terms, identity fabric refers to your collection of identity data across an organization's digital landscape. "Identity fabric immunity" is your ability to protect your system against cyber threats and internal vulnerabilities, and to effectively recover if an incident were to occur.

In today's hyper-connected world, protecting your identity data is complex, ever evolving, and involves both technical and human threats. Identity data is ultra valuable – in fact, according to Crowdstrike, last year, “80% of cyberattacks leveraged identity-based techniques.” Identity data can be a target for bad actors, and so organizations must be ready to respond and remediate issues as they arise.

Enter identity fabric immunity.

But while most cybersecurity professionals recognize the importance of preventative measures, many are unprepared to respond to a disruption in service.

No wonder Gartner identified identity fabric immunity as one of its top trends for 2023. They understand the significance of maintaining business continuity in the event of an emergency.

Detect & Respond to Threats Quickly

When it comes to digital security, promptness is paramount. According to IBM's Cost of a Data Breach Report 2023, it takes organizations an average of 280 days to identify and respond to a breach. That timeline may include downtime for your business, costing you revenue, productivity, and staining your brand in the public eye.

To avoid the fallout, responding to and recovering from a breach or error becomes an urgent sprint. Speed and accuracy are key. The more complex the system and the larger the organization, the more difficult a speedy recovery becomes.

Now let's see how MightyID helps organizations strengthen their identity fabric immunity.
