Zero Trust: IAM best practices to protect growing businesses

The rapidly changing threat landscape has impacted small to midsized businesses in every industry globally. To effectively protect your organization, it’s important to strengthen your overall security posture with a scalable approach to identity and access management (IAM). In this webinar, you’ll learn best practices and understand how other SMBs have implemented a zero trust approach in Atlassian Cloud.

Growing businesses have become a leading target for cyberattacks. In the 2023 Verizon Data Breach Investigation Report, 54% of security incidents at small to midsize businesses resulted in compromised credentials. Proactively defending against unauthorized access to your company’s applications and data requires a comprehensive and scalable identity and access management (IAM) strategy. This strategy should follow zero trust best practices and incorporate a mix of people, processes, and technology to improve your security posture and meet your regulatory compliance requirements.

Accelerate Atlassian product onboarding and reduce manual IAM tasks with Atlassian Access, a centralized IAM solution that covers all of your Atlassian cloud products. Hear directly from product and customer teams about the ways in which current customers have adopted a zero trust approach to IAM at their organization.

During the session, you’ll learn:

  • Best practices for implementing zero trust principles at growing small to midsize businesses
  • How to make small – but impactful – IAM changes across people, processes, and technology
  • How Atlassian Access can help reduce error-prone tasks and improve your overall IAM security posture
