From Secureauth site Irvine, Calif. – March 1
Post# of 82672
Irvine, Calif. – March 16, 2017 – SecureAuth Corporation, the leader in adaptive access control, today announced the appointment of Danielle Jackson as Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). Formerly the Director of Information Security for Bloomberg BNA and Mandiant, Jackson brings more than 15 years of leadership experience in network, system, data, cloud and security design. She joins SecureAuth to ensure solutions and customers can benefit from her governance, risk and compliance and business experience, continuing the momentum of preventing the misuse of stolen credentials.
Jackson has worked in advisory and senior leadership roles within public, private and global companies across multiple industries. In addition to Bloomberg BNA and Mandiant, Jackson worked at Accenture in data privacy compliance. She has worked in security from the organizational, compliance and technology perspectives – experience that allows her to provide thoughtful, nuanced counsel to SecureAuth customers.
"With 63 percent of attackers getting into organizations using stolen credentials, I believe that vendors need to provide a better approach that encourages adoption. Adoption get’s easier when we require less of users, not more. SecureAuth has raised the standard for what customers should expect from their identity and security access-control solutions,” Jackson said. “Adaptive Access Control delivers better security and better user experience rather than forcing a tradeoff as traditional approaches do."
Jackson moves into the CISO position as SecureAuth expands its portfolio of adaptive access control, multi-factor authentication, and single sign-on products, adding Identity-as-a-Service product Cloud Access, passwordless capabilities, and detection-orientated abilities to its award-winning adaptive authentication suite.
