Oktane19: A Path to Achieving Network Security ZEN

Balancing security requirements with a pleasant user experience is an ongoing challenge. As identity-based threats have multiplied over the years, user authentication has become complex, with second factor authentication like One Time Passwords (OTP), re-authentication multiple times a day, and extremely long a1phanUm&r1C passwords. Frustrated users try to minimize their pain by sharing passwords across multiple work and personal accounts, increasing their vulnerability as an unintended side effect. Is it possible, in these high-risk times, to provide a login experience that’s both highly secure and positive for users? Adobe believes this is possible, and we will share our Zero-Trust framework for achieving this balance through “ZEN.” The ZEN (Zero-Trust Enterprise Network) project from Adobe is an initiative derived from best practices and principles of today’s numerous digital workspaces. With no single off-the-shelf solution to fully deliver on these principles today, ZEN is pioneering technologies and workflows that make the path to a zero-trust network both attainable and efficient.
