The number of high-profile data breaches has skyrocketed over the past few years, too many of which have resulted from the abject failure to appropriately enforce user access. At the same time, privacy and data protection regulations have grown increasingly stringent, and are placing businesses under pressure to secure their data. It’s no surprise then that there’s a growing consciousness among businesses of the need for an identity and access strategy to not only secure, but also enhance digital services and interactions.

Justin Doo, territory manager, Middle East, Turkey and Africa at Okta, says the need for identity and access management (IAM) is driven by three key trends. “Every company is becoming a technology company. Every organisation, even those that aren’t traditional software companies, is building applications to unlock new routes to market and better engage with their customers. Customer identity solutions enable businesses to do just that.”
