Flip the Switch on Enterprise Password Recovery
Recover in hours, not days, before compliance, insurers, or customers come knocking.
From Last Resort to First Move: The New Paradigm for Password Reset
Hosted by the Identity Defined Security Alliance (IDSA), this on-demand webinar features Bart Allan of Bravura Security and David Kane of Ethical Intruder. Together, they tackle one of the toughest challenges in incident response: recovering at enterprise scale in under 72 hours.
They argue for a paradigm shift — moving mass password resets from a late-stage recovery task to an immediate containment step. Done early and at scale, a reset can stop lateral movement, prevent persistence, and give investigators the breathing room they need to respond effectively.
You’ll also hear how automation makes large-scale resets feasible across distributed workforces and complex systems — from modern cloud apps to legacy platforms.
