Organizations are rapidly adopting new application infrastructures required to create new business models and customer and partner connectivity. While these technological advancements are providing a multitude of opportunities for innovation among businesses, they have also increased cyberthreats and risks introduced by the distribution of modern cloud apps, growing application programming interface (API) usage and serverless computing. Traditional identity and access management (IAM) solutions, which were originally built solely for on-premises workspaces, require human interaction at every level and are unable to support the influx of new connections and the corresponding data flowing through microservices, functions, APIs, and applications.
