New Identity Security Posture Management and Passwordless Enhancements Expand RSA Identity Security Platform

LONDON, June 03, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RSA, the security-first identity leader, announced new Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) and enhancements to the industry's only complete, enterprise-grade passwordless identity platform at Infosecurity Europe 2025. These innovations will help enterprises proactively find and resolve security risks across hybrid and cloud environments and simplify users' log-in processes with advanced, phishing-resistant security capabilities. RSA Announces New RSA Governance & Lifecycle ISPM Capabilities Built into the RSA® Governance & Lifecycle identity governance and administration (IGA) solution, the new ISPM features from RSA address critical cybersecurity risks that result from cloud computing, remote work, and the growth of human and non-human identities. Increasingly complex IT environments have made it impossible for organisations to gain a comprehensive understanding of their identity posture using traditional approaches to identity and access management, leaving them vulnerable to attacks, fines, and other risks. To adapt to this evolving threat landscape, organisations are turning to ISPM, a new cybersecurity framework that complements traditional IGA functions by stressing comprehensive visibility, continuous risk assessment, and automated remediation of identity-related vulnerabilities. Combined with leading RSA Governance & Lifecycle IGA capabilities, RSA ISPM innovations help organisations proactively reduce their identity attack surface. The new AI-powered dashboards provide organisations with comprehensive visibility into their identity ecosystem; deliver proactive insights on policy violations, excessive entitlements, orphaned accounts, and other critical risks; and deliver clear, actionable insights and recommendations for admins, business leaders, and executives. The new RSA Governance & Lifecycle ISPM capabilities will be generally available in Q3 2025. "Reactive identity security capabilities simply aren't sufficient for today's threats, which demand solutions that can proactively find, prioritize, and resolve identity risks," said RSA CEO Rohit Ghai. "Government departments, banks, healthcare, energy, and other security-first organisations need a unified identity platform—including strong access security, enterprise-grade passwordless authentication, governance, and lifecycle workflows operating in an ISPM framework—to stop cyberattacks, stay compliant, and accelerate productivity." "For identity teams overwhelmed by data, the new AI-powered dashboards from RSA provide the proactive information they need to prioritize actions and enhance their security," said RSA Chief Product and Technology Officer Jim Taylor. "With more threats, higher compliance expectations, and shrinking cybersecurity budgets, the new RSA Governance & Lifecycle ISPM capabilities can help organisations do more—and more effectively—with less." "RSA Governance & Lifecycle provides organizations with the tools, visibility, and insights they need to mature their cybersecurity posture, proactively resolve risks, and fulfill audit requirements," said Alaa Abdulnabi, RSA SVP and General Manager, International. "These innovations ensure that high-security organizations can stay ahead of cybersecurity threats and operational challenges." The new RSA Governance & Lifecycle ISPM capabilities announced at Infosec Europe 2025 offer key benefits for enterprises, including: Unparalleled visibility: Advanced dashboards offer a comprehensive view of identity risk across your entire environment, enabling organisations to take proactive measures to secure resources, reduce their attack surface, and prevent breaches before they happen. Actionable insights for everyone: Dashboards visualize complex data for admins, business leaders, and executives to coordinate and prioritize action. Easier, continuous compliance: New RSA Governance & Lifecycle ISPM capabilities make it easy to surface the evidence auditors need, highlight areas that require attention, and reveal opportunities to reduce risk—all while aiding with GDPR, SOX, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and other compliance initiatives. RSA Announces New Windows Desktop Login and Entra ID Passwordless Solutions RSA also announced additional passwordless features to RSA® ID Plus, the complete identity security platform, that help organisations accelerate deployment of phishing-resistant passwordless solutions across their entire environment, reducing risks, modernizing authentication, and driving efficiency: Passwordless support for Windows Desktop Login and Entra ID: ID Plus now supports mobile passkeys and QR codes to complete Windows log-in. ID Plus will add Entra ID support in July. One-step enrollment process: Starting in July, users will be able to enroll new RSA mobile passkeys and other RSA MFA methods via a one-step enrollment process that eliminates delays and reduces help desk support. Code matching for RADIUS: Organizations operating in RADIUS environments can now deploy code matching to reduce the risk of prompt bombing and ensure legacy architecture stays operational. These new passwordless enhancements are fortified by deep security innovations that protect organisations against post-passwordless threats. The newly-announced RSA Help Desk Live Verify (patent pending), only available through ID Plus, uses passwordless bi-directional identity verification to stop help desk scams like the recent attack on Marks & Spencer, Christian Dior, Co-Op, and MGM Resorts. RSA Mobile Lock secures the authentication process itself by scanning devices for app tampering, malware, sideloading, jailbreaking, and AiTM attacks. Infosecurity Europe attendees are invited to book a meeting to demo these new capabilities at Stand A86.

AI linked to a fourfold increase in productivity growth and 56% wage premium, while jobs grow even in the most easily automated roles: PwC 2025 Global AI Jobs Barometer

Workers see rising wages: AI-skilled workers see average 56% wage premium in 2024, double the 25% in the previous year Confounding expectations, data shows job availability grew 38% in the roles more exposed to AI, albeit below the growth rate in less exposed occupations Industries most exposed to AI saw 3x higher growth in revenue per employee (27%) compared to those least exposed (9%) The skills sought by employers are changing 66% faster in jobs most exposed to AI LONDON, June 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- AI is making workers more valuable, productive, and able to command higher wage premiums, with job numbers rising even in roles considered most automatable, according to PwC's 2025 Global AI Jobs Barometer, released today. The report is based on analysis of close to a billion job ads from six continents. The report finds that since GenAI's proliferation in 2022, productivity growth has nearly quadrupled in industries most exposed to AI (e.g. financial services, software publishing), rising from 7% from 2018-2022 to 27% from 2018-2024. In contrast, the rate of productivity growth in industries least exposed to AI (e.g. mining, hospitality) declined from 10% to 9% over the same period. 2024 data shows that the most AI exposed industries are now seeing 3x higher growth in revenue per employee than the least exposed. Carol Stubbings, Global Chief Commercial Officer, PwC, said: "This research shows that the power of AI to deliver for businesses is already being realised. And we are only at the start of the transition. As we roll out Agentic AI at enterprise scale, we are seeing that the right combination of technology and culture can create dramatic new opportunities to reimagine how organisations work and create value." Job numbers are rising in virtually every type of AI-exposed occupation, even those highly automatable Contrary to some expectations, the data from the report does not show job or wage destruction from AI. While occupations with lower exposure to AI saw strong job growth (65%) in recent years (2019-2024), growth remained robust even in more exposed occupations (38%). Within more exposed occupations, jobs can be further divided into 'automated' (i.e., the job contains some tasks that AI can carry out) and 'augmented' (i.e., where AI helps a human do their job better). Across both classifications between 2019-24, job numbers are growing in every industry analysed, although augmented jobs are generally growing faster. Wages are growing twice as fast in AI-exposed industries Wages are growing twice as fast in industries more exposed to AI versus less exposed, with wages rising in both automatable and augmentable jobs. Jobs which require AI skills also offer a wage premium (over similar roles that don't require AI skills) in every industry analysed, with the average premium hitting 56%, up from 25% last year. Jobs that require such AI skills also continue to grow faster than all jobs – rising 7.5% from last year, even as total job postings fell 11.3%. Joe Atkinson, Global Chief AI Officer, PwC, said: "In contrast to worries that AI could cause sharp reductions in the number of jobs available – this year's findings show jobs are growing in virtually every type of AI-exposed occupation, including highly automatable ones. AI is amplifying and democratizing expertise, enabling employees to multiply their impact and focus on higher-level responsibilities. With the right foundations, both companies and workers can re-define their roles and industries and emerge leaders in their field, particularly as the full gambit of applications becomes clearer." The skills earthquake accelerates – AI is creating deep change in the skills workers need to succeed While the picture on productivity, wages and jobs is broadly positive, the research does highlight the need for workers and businesses to adapt to a much faster pace of change. The skills sought by employers are changing 66% faster in occupations most exposed to AI, up from 25% last year. What it takes to succeed in AI-exposed jobs is changing in other ways. Employer demand for formal degrees is declining for all jobs, but especially quickly for AI-exposed jobs. The percentage of jobs AI augments that require a degree fell 7 percentage points between 2019 and 2024 from 66% to 59%, and 9 percentage points (53% to 44%) for jobs AI automates. The findings show that AI's impact on women and men may be unequal – in every country analysed, more women than men are in AI-exposed roles, suggesting the skills pressure facing women will be higher. Pete Brown, Global Workforce Leader, PwC, said: "AI's rapid advance is not just re-shaping industries, but fundamentally altering the workforce and the skills required. This is not a situation that employers can easily buy their way out of. Even if they can pay the premium required to attract talent with AI skills, those skills can quickly become out of date without investment in the systems to help the workforce learn." The AI business imperative If businesses are to turbocharge their growth and leverage the opportunity afforded by AI, they must put AI front-and-centre, now. The report recommends five key actions for businesses: Use AI for enterprise-wide transformation. Treat AI as a growth strategy, not just an efficiency strategy. Prioritise Agentic AI. Enable your workforce to have the skills to make the most of AI's power. Unlock AI's transformative potential by building trust. About the PwC 2025 Global AI Jobs Barometer The AI Jobs Barometer analysed close to a billion job ads and thousands of company financial reports across six continents to reveal AI's impact on jobs, wages, skills, and productivity. The Barometer includes some of the most recent available data on AI's impact including the latest available job ads and company reports through the end of 2024. We define a job as 'AI-exposed' if it contains many tasks in which AI can be used according to the well-established AI Occupational Exposure index. Definitions: 'More exposed' jobs are the 50% of jobs with greater AI exposure; 'Less exposed' jobs are the 50% of jobs with lower AI exposure; 'Most exposed' jobs are the 25% of jobs with the greatest AI exposure. We use the IMF's methodology to separately analyse AI-exposed jobs that are highly automatable (which means the job contains many tasks AI can perform) versus jobs that are highly augmentable (which means the job contains many tasks in which AI supports human expertise and judgment).

We're a tech-forward, people-empowered network with more than 370,000 people in 149 countries.
