Identity and Access Management

What is identity and access management?

Identity and access management (IAM), an essential building block for zero trust architecture, ensures that the right people and devices have the right access at the right time. These solutions reduce risk to an organization's data and systems by streamlining the authentication, authorization, automated provisioning/de-provisioning and access review process. Make access decisions more manageable, all while providing cost and time-savings through automation.

TEC37 Security Series E07: 5 Pillars of Identity and Access Management

Identity and access management (IAM) is a balancing act. On the one hand, organizations need to mature their capabilities as corporate assets increasingly live outside the traditional security perimeter. On the other hand, this can't come at the cost of complicating the end-user experience. By focusing on five pillars of IAM, organizations can strike a balance, and give the right users the right level of access to enterprise resources at the right time. Join host Robb Boyd as he speaks with WWT's Mike Wampler, Principal Security Consultant, and Maafu Shabaz, Principal Consultant. They'll discuss how organizations can adopt identity principles and practices to drive a cohesive, strategic approach to IAM.

API Security with OAuth2.0 using JWT Tokens

The purpose of this lab is to demo how NGINX Controller API Management Module and NGINX App Protect can secure the OAuth Authorization Code flow, which is core to Open Banking specifications. The NGINX App Protect will be deployed as an Ingress Controller for Kubernetes and will provide both negative and positive security by ingesting the OpenAPI declaration file. The NGINX API Gateway will be controlled by NGINX Controller, will publish the application API based on the same OpenAPI declaration file, will provide JWT authentication and authorization and enforce rate limiting. The deployment and configuration of these elements will be performed automatically through a CI/CD pipeline. ELK dashboards will be used for visualization purposes and, lastly, a DAST tool will also be run as part of the CI/CD pipeline. BIG-IP APM is deployed as both Authorization Server with OpenID Connect support and as OAuth Client, in separate instances.

Dynamic Persona Assessment

An organization's people -- its end users -- are at the center of every process and digital transformation. So it's crucial they have the right tools for success. Yet we often find end-user technology decisions are disjointed, left up to distinct business units or simply sprawling over time. <br/> <br/> As organizations pivot towards employee-centric services, the need to empower end users with the right technology tools and provide measurable business value is paramount. <br/> <br/> Our Dynamic Persona Assessment differentiates itself from traditional persona assessments by merging data and institutional knowledge, building a sustainable persona framework that can be used for a variety of business and technical decisions and initiatives.
