In July 2024 we have seen two global IT outages that have had major impacts around the world. The outage of Azure was due to a cyber-attack that caused a global system lock-out, with the second one being the Crowd Strike update error that caused a global IT failure. These outages had very different causes and implications for users, and yet still had far reaching effects, with significant financial losses and economic impacts. The full costs are still not fully calculated. NIS2 & DORA, while addressing some elements of security, resiliency and business continuity were both conceived well before these global events, so do not specifically address the real world lessons coming from these global outages. There are deeper considerations companies and governments must be looking at beyond just the high level guidance of both NIS2 & DORA.

Don’t compromise on security for excellent user experience or vice versa. The Hypermedia Authentication API (HAAPI) allows your UX team complete control over the user interface during authentication. At the same time, security experts maintain control over which login methods are allowed or if specific workflows should be executed as part of the authentication. This decoupling allows for separate release cycles between the app and the identity platform, stays on top of security with server-side control and enables ideal user experience with app-rendered screens.
