Working Together for Privacy Protection: The Importance of Identity Management

Seemingly overnight, the Federal Government’s workforce transitioned from a primarily in-person model to a hybrid model. Now, it’s clear that telework support by the cloud is here to stay. As a result, agencies need to accelerate their digital transformations to manage and protect the influx of data available on the web—which is exposing gaps in agencies’ identity foundations.

Many agencies rely on identity technologies that lack modern security features, and many employees lack the security awareness to help safeguard their digital identities. Threat actors are taking advantage of this to steal sensitive—and valuable—data, so agencies need to strengthen their identity foundations as soon as possible to better protect both their organizations and employees.

In this webinar, hosted by ATARC, you’ll hear from experts across the Federal Government as they discuss how:

• Identity management plays a key role in the success of a hybrid workforce
• Agencies can support their workforces’ productivity and security with identity management best practices
• Agencies can implement an effective identity security model to decrease the their organizations’ overall risk and keep pace with adversaries
