Identity Security
Identity Security, often referred to as Identity and Access Management (IAM) Security, is a key cybersecurity discipline focused on safeguarding digital identities and controlling access to organizational resources. The main objective is to ensure that only authorized users and entities can access applications, data, and systems, while mitigating risks such as unauthorized access, data breaches, and other security threats.
