Strengthen Security with Conditional Access
Discover how conditional access can strengthen your security framework. Manage access effectively with ShadowSafe.
As the cyber threat landscape around us continues to change, businesses need to take additional steps to improve their resilience.
One of these steps is to implement access control for critical accounts and systems.
This is referred to as "Conditional Access", a policy-based system that only allows users to access your data (e.g. Microsoft 365) only when a set of conditions are met.
Conditional Access policies, at their simplest, are IF/THEN statements. IF a user wants to access a resource (e.g. Log into Sharepoint), THEN they must meet a certain set of criteria.
For example:
What kind of criteria can be set?
Some examples of criteria include:
Define the geographical locations that logins are permitted from.
Enforce the use of a multi-factor application.
Require that the device is known by the system and is up to date.
Benefits to your business
Enabling Conditional Access has a number of benefits, including:
✅ Reduces attack surface - Most attacks come from overseas, setting a location-based criteria will considerably reduce the attack surface (e.g. Russia).
✅ Proves identity of users - Ensures everyone accessing your systems have proved their identity with 2-Factor Authentication.
✅ Helps with compliance - Limits access only to devices that are up to date and known by your system.
