How does Silverfort fit in an IAM stack?

Silverfort takes the threat detection job at the point of authentication: it can block, challenge or end a session before sign-in completes, and it adds MFA to systems that cannot take it natively. It also protects service accounts with baselines and virtual fences.

Suits: Hybrid environments with Active Directory, legacy applications or OT that need MFA and inline detection.
