Identity is no longer a reliable sole basis for workforce access because employees connect from diverse, unmanaged, and changing devices and contexts that can quickly alter risk after authentication. Specops’ Infinipoint implements continuous device verification, device-based access controls, and one-click remediation to extend Zero Trust beyond identity and protect systems like Active Directory. #ActiveDirectory #Infinipoint
Keypoints
- Identity-based access grants are insufficient when device state changes after login.
- Attackers exploit trusted sessions by reusing stolen credentials, session tokens, or compromised endpoints.
- Legacy protocols, remote access tools, and non-browser workflows often fall outside modern conditional access coverage.
- Continuous device verification ties access to endpoint health and reduces the effectiveness of credential-based attacks.
- Device-based controls and self-service, one-click remediation restore trust without disrupting user productivity.
