What Good Identity Hardening Looks Like

This article outlines a framework for mature identity hardening that extends beyond multifactor authentication to include eliminating MFA exceptions and detecting configuration drift. It emphasizes proactive detection of identity deviations before attackers can exploit them.

Why it matters: Security teams responsible for identity governance need to understand that MFA alone is insufficient; practitioners should evaluate their exception policies and drift-detection capabilities to reduce lateral movement opportunities.
