Who is affected
Any organization relying on standard user accounts and cloud identities that lack real-time behavioural controls.
How to mitigate it
- 1Deploy runtime identity controls to continuously verify user behaviour and block abnormal actions after login.
- 2Enforce strict least-privilege access policies across all systems to limit what a compromised account can reach.
- 3Implement automated threat detection tools that can detect and isolate rapid lateral movement in real time.
