Peter Theobald, Head - Microsoft Security Practice, Noventiq India
“Cybersecurity is a constantly advancing challenge. While MFA continues to play a role, it remains perimeterfocused and can fall short against insider threats or advanced techniques like credential-stuffing or man-inthe-middle attacks. Zero Trust addresses these gaps by enforcing stringent access controls and continuousverification, considering device posture, user behaviour, and context to secure every interaction.
Identity-centric security takes this further by recognizing identity as the new perimeter. Today’s attackersoften bypass traditional defences by leveraging compromised credentials. By implementing granular policies and
least-privilege access, organizations can manage permissions effectively, detect anomalies such as unusual loginpatterns, and respond to threats even when valid credentials are used.
At Noventiq, we focus on strengthening clients’ security with tailored solutions. Our expertise with IAM,micro-segmentation, adaptive access controls, and Microsoft’s Entra Suite helps enforce robust identity-based security. We begin by assessing critical assets, strengthening IAM protocols, and segmenting networks to contain breaches. With our GRC practice, we ensure security frameworks align with regulatory standards, such as GDPR or India’s DPDP Act.
Our integrated solutions, which leverage Microsoft’s Defender and Sentinel for AI-driven detection and response, provide unified visibility and automated threat containment. While challenges like legacy systems, user resistance, and skilled resource shortages persist, our approach simplifies complexity and reduces TCO. By integrating scalable and adaptive security models, we enable organizations to stay ahead in an AI-driven threat landscape.”
