Revolutionizing Credential Security with Dashlane Omnix™
- Dashlane is the first to unify proactive credential protection and password management in one platform to secure every user credential.
- New Dashlane Omnix™ platform is generally available, accompanied by new capabilities that equip security teams to pinpoint and expedite response to credential threats.
Today marks a pivotal shift in credential security as Dashlane introduces an innovative approach to combating human risk amid the escalating threat of AI-integrated phishing attacks and shadow IT. The Dashlane Omnix™ platform is the first credential security solution that merges proactive intelligence with real-time responses, offering a comprehensive suite of tools to safeguard user credentials in a user-friendly environment.
This development comes in response to a dramatic rise in phishing attacks targeting organizations. A Dashlane report reveals that a staggering 80% of companies have noticed a surge in both the frequency and sophistication of these threats. Unmanaged AI applications further complicate the situation, fostering a new wave of shadow IT that circumvents conventional security measures such as single sign-on (SSO) and multi-factor authentication (MFA).
Unlike traditional password management solutions that only address fragments of the security challenge, Dashlane Omnix™ focuses on the entire lifecycle of credential threats. The platform efficiently identifies compromised credentials and implements immediate alerts to empower users in their efforts to mitigate risks—providing robust, ongoing management of credentials.
The reactive strategies employed by many organizations have consistently fallen short in addressing credential-based breaches. The lack of comprehensive credential management often leaves security gaps that skilled attackers are eager to exploit.
John Bennett, CEO of Dashlane, states, "Much of the effort around credential security has been reactive, where companies scramble to address breaches instead of proactively mitigating risks early on. Omnix provides the unique capability to combine profound insights with actionable strategies, thereby significantly decreasing human risk within organizations."
Numerous enterprises, such as health systems and major corporations, are already leveraging Dashlane's solutions to amplify their security postures. For instance, more than 79% of organizations utilizing dashboards for employee alerts observed substantial improvements in security behaviors, as employees converted at-risk passwords into secure alternatives.
Aidan Turner, Manager of Identity and Access Management at Downer Group, emphasizes the importance of a proactive approach: "Ensuring our systems and employees are safeguarded from credential risks enables us to concentrate on our core mission—supporting the communities we serve. With Dashlane's assistance, we have adopted a more strategic framework for credential management, preventing potential threats from escalating into larger issues."
Key components of the Dashlane Omnix™ platform include:
- Proactive Credential Protection: This feature empowers security teams to cultivate a phishing-resistant environment by detecting and responding to credential threats at their inception, preventing potential account compromises.
- Enterprise Credential Management: Users are equipped with a secure, centralized tool to manage all credentials—including those that fall outside of SSO—through an encrypted vault that prioritizes user ease and security. IT managers can also enforce guidelines and gain insightful reports on their credential oversights.
- In-Browser Security: Given that most business activities now occur within web applications, Omnix delivers exceptional visibility into credential-related activities directly in browsers. This feature revealed potential risks masked by native protections.
- Breach-Hardened Architecture: The innovative infrastructure combines the benefits of zero-knowledge security along with confidential computing, positioning Omnix as the premier platform with vast credential protection and intelligence capabilities.
In addition to these foundational elements, Dashlane has rolled out advanced functionalities that empower security managers to identify risks more effectively throughout their operations:
- Credential Risk Insights: Security leaders can now track metrics on credential vulnerabilities, assessing the number of employees utilizing weak or compromised passwords while monitoring improvements over time.
- In-Context Alerts: Immediate, understandable alerts are sent to employees during potential threats, minimizing the risk of account compromises by facilitating timely responses.
- Expanded Deployment Options: Dashlane now accommodates various deployment methods, including Group Policy Objects (GPO), enhancing the tools available for credential monitoring.
With the Dashlane Omnix™ platform now available for general use, organizations are urged to learn more about this pivotal advancement in credential security and explore how they can switch to a unified, intelligent credential management solution.
