Bridging the Password Gap
LastPass' Rachael Stockton on the Role of Password Management ControlsRachael Stockton of LastPass says that 81 percent of breaches are caused by weak or reused passwords. So, is it time to take a hard look at password management and consider adding some technology to the practice?
"Everywhere there's a password, there's an entry point," says Stockton, director of product marketing for LastPass. "[And] anyone who has a password is a target."
In an interview about password management controls, Stockton discusses:
- Why organizations traditionally rely on weak password management;
- The breach risks that enterprises are ignoring;
- How password management controls can bridge the security gap.
