Uncover the Details of NIS 2 Compliance
If your organization operates critical infrastructure or provides digital services in the European Union, you need to know about the Network and Information Security (NIS 2) Directive. This legislation enacts stricter cybersecurity requirements involving robust risk management, incident reporting, and supply chain security protocols. Ensuring you can meet these broad requirements requires a unified approach to security.

Data Security and Privacy Regulations
Regulations around data security and privacy are designed to protect user privacy by ensuring controlled access to data. Many businesses are navigating the complexities to efficiently comply with relevant regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS.

Manage Risk with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
Compliance mandates often require MFA, and security agencies like CISA are advising companies to deploy MFA and harden credentials. Yet, many organizations have failed to adopt an identity security service, dramatically increasing their risk.
Cyber Insurance Security Requirements
Recent increases in cybersecurity incidents and ransomware attacks are driving companies to apply for cyber insurance. When doing so, companies have been facing one new prerequisite to becoming eligible: multi-factor authentication (MFA) protection of your users and assets.
Advisories, Regulations, and Industry Requirements Are Changing Organizations’ Security Posture
Cybersecurity advisories and requirements are emerging frequently from industries, independent nonprofit organizations, and government agencies. These groups focus on providing guidance and support to reduce the risk of security threats.
