Brian Cap, Practice Director, IGA, Guidepoint Security

Paramita Chakraborty, Practice Lead, IGA, Guidepoint Security

Building a strong IGA foundation is crucial for a successful IAM program in the long term. Identity serves as the core of any IAM initiative, highlighting the need for proactive measures in preparation for automation. Involving the right stakeholders from the outset and ensuring good data hygiene are essential steps in this process. Effective automation hinges on robust inter-departmental communication and executive sponsorship to drive the adoption of improved processes. Post-automation, tailored efforts are required to oversee daily operations while maintaining a focus on continuous enhancements and optimization.

David Morimanno, Director of IAM Technologies, Integral Partners

Many organizations are now embarking on a Zero Trust journey to help them move towards a more secure framework. This shift involves rethinking the Identity, Networking, and Security domains through a Zero Trust lens. Success relies on finding the optimal integration of these domains.

This presentation will provide you with a clear understanding of how Identity and Access Management is the cornerstone of a successful Zero Trust strategy, enabling organizations to enhance their security posture and minimize the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access.

Key takeaways:

  • Understand the core principles and benefits of Zero Trust and the critical role Identity plays
  • How building strong Identity practices contribute to a robust security posture
  • Learn what an integrated Zero Trust program looks like
  • Discover tools and strategies you can use to improve your Identity program

2:30pm – 3:00pm: Refreshment & Exhibit Break

3:00pm – 4:00pm: How to Implement an Identity Governance and Access Center of Excellence (Breakout Session)

There is a critical gap that exists today in IGA’s time-to-value, and many programs fall at risk, end up failing, or do not instill business confidence.

4:00pm – 5:00pm: How to Partner with Business Stakeholders to Ensure Success of Your Identity Program (Panel Discussion)

The main mistake most organizations make when rolling out an IAM strategy is failing to secure support and sponsorship from the company’s executive leadership team. Identity security should never rely on the CISO or CIO to manage and communicate. All business leaders must share the same strategic vision around IAM and drive it within the organization to succeed.

Moderated by: Paramita Chakraborty, Managing Security Advisor, IAM, GuidePoint

  • Greg Carlson, Identity and Access Manager, Milwaukee Tool
