Identity and access management

- We can only implement secure systems if we have controls that are able to securely identify and authenticate users, and then limit those users to carrying out only authorized activities. That's the role of identity and access management systems. Cybersecurity professionals must understand how these systems carry out their functions, how administrators configure access controls to restrict access, and how attackers might exploit access control weaknesses. Businesses in all industries need skilled cybersecurity analysts who understand identity and access management. Comptia Cybersecurity Analyst Plus, or CYSA Plus Certification, is a path that many technologists follow to advance their careers in this high demand field. Hi, I'm Mike Chapple, and I'd like to invite you to watch my course on identity and access management. It's part of an eight core series preparing you for the CYSA Plus exam. I hope that you'll join me as we explore the important field of identity and access management.
