Revisit David Morimanno's talk from this year's Xalient Summit 2024 as he examines today's cybersecurity landscape, it's challenges and how an integrated strategy across Identity, Cybersecurity and Networking can help tackle them.

How an integrated strategy solves modern cyber challenges and prepares for tomorrow

Identity is a bigger issue than most people think. On top of your users, how many machine identities have access to your network? How much access do they have? In this session, recorded at Cybersec Europe, DJ Morimanno explains why technology should not be the starting point to improve your security posture and shares our vision of a holistic, identity-centric approach to protecting your most valuable assets.

Why a Zero Trust Journey Starts With Identity

Many organizations are interested in establishing a resilient and comprehensive approach to IAM by building an Identity Fabric, but it's not always easy to know where to start and how to do it right. During this discussion, we'll explore how both IGA and Zero Trust principles can play a big part in maturing your Identity Fabric. 

Attendees will gain insights on identity governance, ensuring that access is approved and reviewed on a regular basis, and controls that enforce policy and ensure that they stay relevant and effective.  We'll also discuss how to establish a robust security framework that not only shields against unauthorized access, but also fortifies defenses against phishing, insider threats, and broader cybersecurity vulnerabilities. 

We will spend time on each IAM component to show what each should be delivering, and how they can interact. Finally, an IAM strategy approach is discussed, the often-missed components of an IAM Program. 

The topics covered during this workshop include:

+  Understanding the principles of Zero Trust.
+  Defining an Identity Fabric, including the capabilities and benefits.
+  Clarifying the important role that having an effective IGA strategy plays in maturing your Identity Fabric, and how to build one.
+  Outlining how an Identity Fabric can be effectively leveraged to implement each principle of Zero Trust
+  The role of IGA, PAM, and AM and how they expand with an Identity Fabric 
+  The role of compliance in IAM, and how to improve adherence to controls and audits 
+  The areas of an Identity Fabric that SailPoint addresses 

Bonus #1: Attendees of this IAM workshop will be eligible for a free 1:1 follow-up IGA/IAM Essentials workshop with Integral Partners.  We can also cover the SailPoint platform to help you understand their ecosystem so that you can make informed choices

Bonus #2:  We will be raffling off (4) Apple AirTags to those that attend!

Workshop: Building an IGA Strategy to Mature Your Identity Fabric

As high-profile breaches dominate headlines and decimate share prices, demonstrating your ability to protect client data has become the latest IT imperative getting boardroom attention, along with a host of new analyst and vendor-created labels for the ‘perfect’ solution. 

The people we talk to are still wrestling with cloud governance and shadow IT from a security perspective. 

We want to help those who are short on time and resources cut through the bewildering landscape of buzzwords and gold standards by offering some practical, vendor-agnostic advice on where best to start and how to get the biggest wins in reducing their firms' exposure to risk. 

We’ll be discussing: 

- How/where should you start transforming the way you address these risks 
- Microsoft E5 – can it do everything? 
- Where can you get the biggest bang for your buck in trying to reduce your organisation's exposure to risk?

Why the SSE vs SASE debate misses the point for legal IT leaders
