Case Study: Sophos achieves phishing-resistant MFA and just-in-time access at scale with Opal Security

Sophos Scales Phishing-Resistant MFA and Just-in-Time Access with Opal

Sophos, a global leader in cybersecurity solutions, faced a significant scaling challenge with its identity governance in AWS. Their existing tool could not efficiently manage just-in-time access and peer approvals for their large development team across hundreds of accounts. They also needed to integrate a separate, phishing-resistant MFA to protect their cloud environment. To address this, they turned to Opal Security for a solution.

By implementing Opal, Sophos gained scalable just-in-time access and phishing-resistant MFA with a developer-friendly experience. The solution's infrastructure-as-code integration allowed them to manage thousands of roles and hundreds of accounts without adding headcount, significantly increasing team productivity and enabling a modern, zero-trust security model.
