The password manager was meant to be the final line of defense for corporate credentials that can't be controlled by SSO. Instead, it has become a high-value target and a workaround for a fundamental flaw in identity strategy. Organizations are battling relentless attacks on password vaults and a massive surge in Shadow SaaS. The industry must admit a hard truth: managing passwords has failed to neutralize the #1 threat vector for data exfiltration.
In this webcast, Rich Eisenberg will explain why password managers and digital vaults provide a false sense of security rather than actual protection. This session challenges the reliance on vaults in a SaaS-dominated landscape and demonstrates how organizations can finally connect their IdP—whether Okta, Entra, or Ping—to the uncontrolled apps that currently operate in the dark.
Key discussion points:
• How users circumvent password managers using critically weak secrets and even reusing passwords
• Why centralizing secrets creates a single point of failure and fails to stop sophisticated modern phishing
• Strategies to extend your primary Identity Provider to every app in your stack, including non-SAML, home grown and legacy platforms—without paying for premium enterprise tiers (i.e., no SSO tax)
• Using decentralized technology to eliminate password-based workflows and regain control over Shadow IT, shutting down phishing and credential theft threat vectors in the process
The goal: Stop relying on temporary fixes. Learn how to transition from basic password management to Universal SSO, ensuring every application is secure, governed, and truly passwordless.
