Rethinking Network Access Control: PAM for Network Infrastructure
In a world where digital infrastructure is the backbone of every business, government, and service provider, securing network access is no longer a “nice to have” — it’s mission-critical. While traditional NAC (Network Access Control) systems like Cisco ISE have served their purpose over the years, their limitations have become glaring in the face of modern, identity-driven threats. As organizations increasingly adopt hybrid cloud models, multi-vendor ecosystems, and globally distributed teams, Privileged Access Management (PAM) for network devices emerges as a new standard. And Kron PAM leads the way — with native support for TACACS+, RADIUS, integrated 2FA, granular authorization, and massive scalability built into its core. This blog takes you deep into why Kron PAM is not just an alternative to Cisco ISE — it's a next-generation leap forward.
Fortifying the Frontlines: How Kron’s Database Firewall Stops Threats in Real Time
In today’s hyperconnected digital landscape, data is more than just an asset—it’s the crown jewel of every organization. Whether it's customer records, financial data, intellectual property, or sensitive business information, your databases hold what adversaries want most. And yet, traditional perimeter defenses are proving inadequate in the face of increasingly sophisticated cyber threats and insider attacks. This is where Kron DAM&DDM’s Database Firewall (DBF) comes into play—a purpose-built solution for real-time, protocol-level database security that actively protects your most critical data assets from compromise.
The Rising Cost of Data Breaches: Insights and Solutions with Kron PAM and DAM&DDM
Data breaches continue to pose a significant threat to businesses globally, with their cost and frequency escalating year by year. According to IBM’s 2024 Cost of a Data Breach Report, the global average cost of a data breach has surged to an unprecedented $4.88 million, a 10% increase from 2023. Factors such as shadow data, longer breach lifecycles, and increasingly sophisticated attack vectors exacerbate the challenge, leaving organizations struggling to mitigate risks. In this context, Kron PAM and Kron DAM&DDM offer a robust, integrated approach to addressing these challenges.
Safeguard Your AI Future: How Kron PAM Secures MCP Servers with Zero Machine Identity Exposure
AI agents and applications are changing how companies run in the fast-changing digital environment of today. AI is at the core of invention, from streamlining processes to improving decision-making. But with great power comes great responsibility—particularly when it comes to securing sensitive credentials. The rise of Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, which connect to target resources like databases, servers, and applications to execute tasks, has introduced a critical vulnerability: credential exposure.
Secure What Matters: How Kron DAM & DDM Elevate Sensitive Data Discovery and Protection
One of the most difficult difficulties organizations face today is visibility—specifically, not knowing where sensitive data is located among huge databases and data repositories. According to IBM’s 2024 Cost of a Data Breach Report, the average breach now costs roughly $5 million, demonstrating the importance of ensuring proper visibility. Failing to uncover personal information, financial records, health details, or API secrets can lead to massive compliance risks, legal entanglements, and financial losses. Fortunately, Sensitive Data Discovery (SDD) has emerged as a vital layer in modern cybersecurity and data governance. Let’s explore the core problem, the solution, and how Kron DAM & DDM solve it with advanced scanning, classification, and compliance capabilities.
