Synopsis and overview of the session

In this COVID-19 Era, we’ve all witnessed firsthand the damage a spark of misleading information can cause.  The same happens in cyber security. The line between myth and fact becomes blurry – and many IT security professionals choose to believe a myth because it’s perceived as being “less disruptive”. And that in itself is also a myth.

Focus Network, in partnership with BeyondTrust, will be bringing leading IT Security executives to put six popular beliefs about Privileged Access Management (PAM) under the microscope and debate whether they are fact or fiction.

Join this interactive session to share your views and learn actionable takeaways to develop a more secure, folklore-free cyber security strategy.

Busting Six Myths of PAM:

• Myth #1: The Zero Trust Model Is Easily Achievable
• Myth #2: To Enable PAM You Must Move To Shared Accounts
• Myth #3: PAM Is Only About Managing Privileged Accounts
• Myth #4: Removing Local Admin Rights Is Too Challenging To Implement
• Myth #5: Vendor Access Can Be Secured Using VPN
• Myth #6: PAM Is A Hindrance To Productivity

So, what’s your take on these myths? Fact or fiction?
