With 82% of detections now malware-free and valid account abuse behind 35% of cloud incidents, the earliest warning often comes from the identity layer itself: an impossible location, a new device, an unusual token request.2 Microsoft's 2026 report found that 52.2% of valid account intrusions involved follow-on credential theft.3

- Automate session revocation and step-up when risk spikes.
- Reduce standing privilege so a stolen session reaches less.
