IAM as a Service Warum Identity-Management zur Cloud-Plattform wird
Identity and Access-Management galt lange als klassisches Infrastrukturprojekt: komplex, teuer und eng an interne Verzeichnisdienste gekoppelt. Doch mit Cloud-Transformation, hybriden Arbeitsmodellen und KI-gestützten Anwendungen gerät das traditionelle IAM-Modell zunehmend an seine Grenzen. Genau hier setzt der Ansatz ‘IAM as a Service” (IAMaaS) an, den Airlock in seinem aktuellen Whitepaper als Zukunftsmodell für modernes Customer Identity…

When Identity is the Attack Path
Consider a cached access key on a single Windows machine. It got there the way most cached credentials do – a user logged in, and the key stored itself automatically. Standard AWS behavior. No one misconfigured anything or violated a policy. Yet that single key, which was easily accessible to a minor-league attacker, could have…

Cyber attackers bypass traditional defences as ‘user-driven’ attacks surge, Bridewell warns
Cyber attackers are increasingly sidestepping traditional security tools by exploiting users themselves, according to Bridewell’s newly released Cyber Threat Intelligence Report 2026. The report highlights a significant shift in attacker behaviour, with threat actors moving away from malware-heavy campaigns towards identity-driven and socially engineered attacks that operate within trusted systems, often leaving little trace for…

Autonomous systems are finally working. Security is next
Security still runs at human speed: Despite advances in infrastructure, cloud and AI, the underlying workflow of security operations has not fundamentally changed. At its core, security still operates as a human-driven process: Alerts are generated, analysts investigate, context is assembled manually and decisions are made under pressure. This model was sufficient when environments were…
