Keyfactor has chosen RSA to be the launch event for the first study of its kind, the Keyfactor-Ponemon Institute 2019 Report: The Impact of Unsecured Digital Identities, which provides quantifiable validation for the importance of securing every digital identity across the enterprise. This benchmark report provides data-driven insights into the risks and consequences of insufficient certificate and key management practices identities, including:

• The average economic loss from an expired certificate is $11.1 million
• Failed audits due to a lack of clear certificate and key management and policies have an impact of $14.4 million
• The economic impact of code signing certificate and key misuse topped $15 million

“The Keyfactor-Ponemon report confirms what we’ve always believed,” says Keyfactor Chief Security Officer Chris Hickman. “Manual processes, limited staff and budget, and adapting to changing business priorities are real issues for PKI managers and IT executives alike. And this report enables them to a build a business case for greater support for their PKI program.”

In addition, Keyfactor’s VP of Product Management, Mark Thompson, will join Gemalto’s Gary Marsden on Tuesday, March 5, at 2:10 PM in the South Expo Briefing Center to deliver The Cloud Revolution – Digital Transformation, Automation and the Disruption of Data Protection, discussing how technological and commercial advances introduce change and compliance challenges that can be overcome using automation, processing and intelligence technologies.
