Midsize enterprises can outcompete larger organizations by utilizing innovative technologies to optimize their capabilities to scale for business growth. As they modernize their workflow processes to improve collaboration and productivity, identity security is crucial to protecting valuable assets and data as well as providing secure access to everything their workforce needs to do their jobs efficiently. This paper describes how resourceconstrained, midsize organizations can achieve greater security against threats and optimize cyber-insurability and compliancy by establishing a strong foundation with identity security. By prioritizing security measures with proven benefits and rapid time to value, midmarket organizations can better support business growth and gain a competitive advantage.
