CSA Exam CCSK Topic 10 Question 85 Discussion

In the initial stage of implementing centralized identity management, the primary focus of cybersecurity measures is to integrate identity management (such as Single Sign-On (SSO), Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), and user directories) and secure devices that interact with the identity management system. This ensures that only authorized users and devices can access the network and resources, helping to establish a strong foundation for secure and efficient identity and access management.

Developing incident response plans is important but typically comes after establishing core security controls like identity management. Implementing advanced threat detection systems is a later stage security measure, after foundational controls like identity management are in place. Deploying network segmentation is a useful security strategy, but it is not the primary focus in the early stages of centralized identity management.
