Mitigating Vulnerabilities Through Effective Device Management and Robust Authentication Strategies

EasyChair Preprint 14936

Abstract

In an increasingly interconnected digital landscape, the proliferation of devices has heightened the risk of cyber vulnerabilities. This paper explores the critical intersection of effective device management and robust authentication strategies as fundamental pillars in mitigating these risks. We analyze contemporary threats, emphasizing the importance of comprehensive device inventories, regular updates, and configuration management to maintain security integrity. Additionally, we delve into advanced authentication techniques, including multi-factor authentication and biometric solutions, assessing their efficacy in fortifying access controls. Through case studies and best practices, we demonstrate how organizations can implement these strategies to create a resilient security posture. Ultimately, our findings underscore the necessity of integrating device management and authentication measures to enhance overall cybersecurity resilience and protect sensitive information from evolving threats.
