Mitigating the UNC3944 Threat: The Power of Modern Identity Security Platforms

A recent threat intelligence report from Mandiant highlights the growing risk posed by the UNC3944 threat group, which targets SaaS applications to steal sensitive data and extort organizations. As companies increasingly rely on a complex web of SaaS applications and cloud services, managing access sprawl and protecting against identity-related security incidents has become a top priority. Modern identity security platforms, with broad visibility, intelligence, and unified view of entitlements across platforms, are a powerful tool in mitigating these threats and safeguarding enterprises. By providing comprehensive visibility and control over identities and permissions across an enterprise's entire multi-cloud ecosystem, modern identity security platforms empower security teams to discover and map all human and service identities, identify and remediate excessive, unused, and high-risk permissions, continuously monitor for suspicious access activity and permission changes in real-time, bridge the gap between decentralized, line-of-business-owned SaaS platforms and central security governance, and augment and integrate with existing identity and access management tools.
