Did you know you can define security based on risk?

Imagine that someone gains access to the email account of the person responsible for finance in your organization. They can read conversations with suppliers, see which invoices are expected, and send messages from an address colleagues trust. For a small business, the consequences can be serious, even with only a handful of employees.

When you ask how you are protected against this, the answer might be: “Everyone has registered MFA.” That is a good starting point. But it only tells you that employees have set up a way to verify their identity. It does not tell you which requirements actually apply when someone tries to access their email.

One of the things I brought home from Workplace Ninja Summit in Baden was how much the device actually matters to the identity.

We talk a lot about MFA, passkeys, Conditional Access, and tokens. But the device isn’t just something the user sits in front of when they sign in.

The device can itself become part of the trust chain.

That point was clear across sessions on modern identity attacks, device trust, passkeys, and privileged workstations. Shortly after the conference, concrete attacks made the issue far less theoretical.
