Rubrik has announced its upcoming Identity Resilience solution, designed to protect the entire identity landscape alongside data. The solution aims to address a critical blindspot in enterprise security by securing identity systems that are frequently targeted by hackers.
Identity systems are complex and difficult to manage, making them a primary gateway for attackers seeking to access an organization’s valuable data. When compromised, these systems grant attackers access to critical data and credentials, potentially disrupting cyber recovery efforts. Rubrik’s Identity Resilience is designed to detect threats targeting identities and proactively reduce identity risks.
Key Features of Identity Resilience
- Continuous visibility into identity changes using time-series data
- Earlier detection of suspicious activity
- Monitoring and safeguarding of critical, sensitive, and active identities, including non-human identities (NHIs)
- Comprehensive risk analysis for human and non-human identities
- Hybrid protection for Active Directory (AD) and Entra ID with automated recovery workflows
The Importance of Identity Security
A recent CISA report found that 90% of cyber attacks on critical infrastructure begin with an identity compromise. These threats often unfold gradually, making it essential to understand changes in privilege or access patterns over time. Rubrik’s solution provides a holistic view of identity and data, combining identity management, identity protection, and data security capabilities.
Benefits of Rubrik’s Approach
- Automated and orchestrated recovery workflows for complex hybrid identity environments
- Reduced complexity and time to recovery for Active Directory forests and Entra ID tenants
- Unified view across identity providers showing human and non-human identities with access to sensitive data
- Ability to track risk associated with identities and target remediation by revoking identity access, data access, or both
- Complete identity and data context to reduce remediation work and strengthen risk posture
Rubrik’s Identity Resilience aims to empower organizations to thwart attacks earlier and restore systems more quickly, ensuring cyber resilience. The company’s extensive coverage for identities across hybrid environments safeguards millions of identities globally.
