The traditional role-based access control (RBAC) model is no longer sufficient to secure modern enterprises, as the way we work has fundamentally changed and many organizations are still trying to apply an outdated approach to security. Roles remain valuable as foundational controls in specific scenarios, but they don't provide enough scaffolding for access in today's dynamic environment. Modern identity security requires understanding the full picture of effective permissions, including what access someone actually has, whether they're using it, and how that access creates risks. Technology has evolved to provide comprehensive visibility and analytics-driven insights, enabling organizations to make data-informed decisions about what access should stay and what shouldn't. Security leaders must challenge status quo thinking about access control and evolve towards a more fluid, analytics-driven approach to identity security.
