Is Comprehensive Secrets Vaulting the Key to Optimal Cybersecurity? When we witness a massive digital transformation across many sectors, the need for a robust security system is more pressing than ever before. Machine identities, or Non-Human Identities (NHIs), coupled with encrypted passwords, tokens or keys—collectively termed as “Secrets”—are becoming central to network security. Affecting industries […]

Introduction In the world of identity and access management (IAM), two protocols often come up during system design or vendor selection: SAML 2.0 and OAuth 2.0. While both serve to secure access, they solve fundamentally different problems and are optimized for different environments. Yet many developers confuse the two — or worse, implement one where...

For enterprise CIOs, CISOs, and IT leaders, managing multiple identity providers (IDPs) is a costly, complex, and security-intensive challenge. Whether due to M&A activities, multi-cloud strategies, or regulatory requirements, fragmented identity ecosystems drive up expenses, increase security risks, and hinder operational efficiency. Why organizations run multiple identity providers Large enterprises often run multiple Identity Providers...

In today’s digital economy, identity is more than just an authentication checkpoint—it’s the backbone of user access, security, and continuity. And as CISOs and IAM architects work to modernize their identity systems, one imperative has moved from the sidelines to center stage: IDP resilience. When identity becomes a single point of failure Most enterprises are...

Misuse of the newly announced Microsoft OneDrive synchronization feature puts corporate security and personal privacy at serious risk in ways not likely understood by the users. Microsoft wants people to connect their personal OneDrive file share with their work systems, synchronizing potentially private files onto their enterprise managed PCs.
The problem is having these files copied to enterprise machines could be an avenue for attackers, by bringing in malware, a means to exfiltrate corporate data, and also undermine the personal privacy of unsuspecting users! Evan Schuman has written a timely article in CSO, articulating many of the risks that both users and employers should avoid.
The industry pushback was immediate and it looks like Microsoft is listening. They are delaying the release, probably to better understand the potential risks. I expect they will now do an internal review with security minded people — which is what should have happened beginning at the architecture phase!
My guess is when the dust settles, they will not enable the synchronization feature by default, but require enterprise admins to turn it on before the users see the approval prompt.
Well, that is my hope anyways!
Microsoft’s approach in not fully understanding the cybersecurity ramifications of new features is not new. The highly controversial Recall feature also experienced similar backlash, causing it to be delayed and ultimately abandoning the plans to turn it on by default.
As we watch Microsoft reconsider its OneDrive synchronization rollout, it serves as a reminder for all software, device, and service providers: security and privacy must be foundational, not afterthoughts, in product design. Rushing features to market without fully understanding cybersecurity aspects beyond technical vulnerabilities can expose customers to unnecessary risks. As an industry, we must drive a culture-shift where cybersecurity is part of the development process from the outset to preserve and enhance trust.
