All Aboard at Black Hat '24
Strata Voyages 🛳️ set sail at the Microsoft booth at Black Hat earlier this week! Just kidding, we’re still a software company. The Captains of Resilience were showing how Identity Continuity™ works in disconnected mode, for instance, on cruise ships. Find out if your business could benefit from continuous access to mission-critical apps, no matter what.
BLOG POST
Implementing Identity Continuity with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework
With identity interwoven into all business operations and predominantly relying on cloud-based IDPs, having a robust identity continuity plan is not just beneficial but essential for avoiding financially costly and potentially brand-damaging outages. Learn how the NIST Cybersecurity Framework can be a valuable model to follow for your continuity planning. Read this Dark Reading article to find out how.
CUSTOMER STORY
Constructing uninterrupted access to applications
For a global manufacturing company, security and compliance were top concerns, so changes to their identity management systems had to comply with strict standards. Ensuring data protection, meeting regulatory requirements, and never losing access to critical applications were essential, even during IDP failure. Read this customer story to see how they did it.
EVENT
AFCEA TechNet Augusta
The Strata team will be at AFCEA TechNet Augusta, August 19-22, demonstrating tactical-edge Identity Continuity support for uninterrupted application access in DDIL (Disrupted, Disconnected, Intermittent, and Low-Bandwidth) environments. This jointly-developed solution for DoD and Armed Services use cases will be showcased with partners Saviynt and Oxford Computer Group. If you're going to be there, pop by Booth #707 on the expo floor.
MAVERIC SPOTLIGHT
Eli Friedman, Senior Software Engineer
Eli just celebrated his 5th anniversary at Strata Identity! He’s one of the OGs and has been instrumental in shaping the Maverics platform. Originally from Colorado, he fell for a girl from Vancouver, BC, and now calls that his home. Wherever he is, Eli will find a mountain to bike, a hill to ski, or a wave to surf. He can also do a mean Ted Lasso impression!
What's new in Maverics?
We've brought major enhancements to Maverics this month! Highlights include Identity Continuity with custom health check endpoints and automation of SAML and OIDC app onboarding with the Maverics API. To learn more, see our guides:
