Decoding the State of IGA 2024

It is impossible to overstate the value of strong Identity Governance in today’s rapidly changing digital environment. As business requirements change, these solutions are invaluable to enable enterprises to adapt. But if you are currently running a legacy IGA solution on-premises or a solution that is homegrown, these solutions over time fail to keep up with change and this can be a major drag on business agility. In this webinar, we look at moving off legacy IGA systems successfully.

Organizations today need a cutting-edge, modern IGA solution that can easily integrate across hybrid and multi-cloud environments, provide comprehensive identity management, and satisfy an ever-changing set of compliance requirements all while providing the automation and IT efficiency that users demand.

Knowing where you want to go is only half the battle. How you carry out your migration is the other half (and many times more than half). In truth, legacy and homegrown IGA migrations are more like a technology transition vs. true technology migration.

Watch this webinar, where Michael Malone, Senior Consultant at Omada, illuminates how to successfully navigate the non-standards within many legacy solutions and related challenges of migrating to a modern IGA solution.
 

Webinar Key Takeaways:
- How to plan for your migration with a transition mindset that aligns with IGA success vs. technology decommission of legacy software
- The value of fit gap analysis and a shared understanding of common definitions, specific success goals, and best practices
- Real-world examples of successful migration off legacy IGA and homegrown solutions

Join the Migration Train: Successfully Moving off Legacy & Homegrown IGA Systems

All organizations have parts of an identity fabric today – in the simplest terms, Identity Fabric is the organization’s IAM infrastructure — often including a blend of or parts of modular IAM tools for hybrid and/or multi-cloud environments.

But now is the time to define, refine, and mature it, and establish guiding principles for how it needs to operate, which will enable organizations to meet cybersecurity identity challenges and business requirements now and into the future.

By doing this, organizations can move beyond identity platforms to an identity fabric mindset that expands the role of Identity Governance and Administration by applying a use case-driven approach to elevate their identity infrastructure.

Webinar Key Takeaways:
- Embrace a new Identity Governance-First Mindset: Learn how to prioritize identity governance as the foundation of your strategy, ensuring seamless interoperability within your identity ecosystem.

- Use Case-Driven Evolution of your identity fabric: Discover the power of applying use case-driven strategies to evolve your IAM infrastructure, enabling it to adapt and thrive in the face of new requirements.

- Applying Identity Governance principles: Learn how to apply a set of foundational principles to establish your own governance of identity fabric.

Don’t miss this opportunity to reshape your IAM strategy with a focus on identity fabric governance. Watch this webinar today and discover how an identity governance-first mindset and use case-driven evolution can revolutionize your approach to governance.

Beyond IGA: Demystifying Governance for Identity Fabric

A most basic and pressing need of organizations seeking to meet audit and compliance requirements and/or improve security is providing users with only the minimum level of access needed to perform their jobs. However, implementing least privilege can be a fine line to walk, because if security is too tight, productivity is lost. As audit requirements become more granular, you need to be able to prove least privilege to auditors.

Certification campaigns are ideally designed to help certify who needs access to what through a series of basic questions. But IAM leaders and users are suffering from ‘survey fatigue’. Lengthy and frequent access surveys often only provide security and risk management leaders with incomplete or inconsistent data.

Omada Senior Solution Architect, Craig Ramsay, and Product Marketing Director, Andrew Silberman, discuss:

- How you can effectively run access certification campaigns to implement least privilege across multi-cloud environments
- How access certification campaigns will help you meet compliance and audit requirements
- Omada’s unique approach to limiting survey questions to only ones that are necessary and automating them
- Best practices for creating easy to answer and interpret certification campaigns
 -And more!

Certify Access with Regularity (and Confidence!)

It’s cliché to say but Identity is the new perimeter.  

It’s hard to deny given Identity is largely the most exploited element in security today. Let’s face it, most hackers are not breaking in, they are logging in using real credentials they stole, bought, phished, brut forced, etc., and then gain access to sensitive customer data.  

So, it’s easy to say Identity is a key element to have increased controls around. And often it’s a challenge to achieve a basic level of governance. 

This session introduces a maturity model and process that enables Identity Management and Governance that will enable organizations with a blueprint to: 

- Rapidly deploy and achieve a base level of Identity Governance in 3 months 
- Support the critical identity capability needs of every application as they evolve
- Keep pace with changes in the identity lifecycle of your workforce

This new process and model form the backdrop for how you can rate and evolve the management and governance of your identity fabric and give you practical guidance on how to get started as well as what goals you should set for your IGA program to continuously reduce security risk around identity. 

Key takeaways from the webinar include: 
- A modern IGA maturity model that addresses requirements for compliance, security risk, and efficiency of Identity governance.
- How to painlessly introduce a growth model for assessing and maturing Identity that aligns with the success of your security program and helps you to reduce identity risk from your CISO risk register.
- How to take steps toward reducing/minimizing compliance headaches with managing Identity.

Destination Modern IGA: An Identity-First Maturity Model Unveiled

Why is it important to integrate Identity Governance with IT Service Management? With the average company now deploying over 180 applications, it can be a sprawling mess for Information Security leaders to ensure the right people have the right access to a wide variety of business resources. It can be a huge (and expensive) headache for the help desk, system administrators, and application owners to deal with.

This only gets more complicated because each app can have thousands of entitlements, and each granted entitlement can potentially conflict with other internal policies.

With the huge number of systems and entitlements, how do you ensure that end users have a consistent process to easily find what they need? How do you then ensure that policies are in place to ensure access adheres to the principle of least privilege?

In this webinar, Craig Ramsay, Senior Solution Architect, Omada and Andrew Silberman, Product Marketing Director talk about the strategic importance of integrating ITSM tools, like ServiceNow, with IGA solutions. Some things they cover include:

-Improving efficiency for end users, administrators, and the help desk by integrating ITSM and IGA processes
-The importance of a single, unified end user experience where business users can go for all their access requests, with governance baked in
-Demo: Requesting access via a unified ITSM/IGA process where risk & policy checks and identity analytics support approval processes to ensure compliance

The Strategic Importance of Integrating Identity Governance with ITSM

Modernizing Identity Governance: Trends, Pitfalls, and Best Practices for Successful Migration

In today’s fast-paced and ever-changing business landscape, it is more important than ever to have a modern identity governance solution in place that can adapt to the latest applications and address the most pressing security initiatives.

Legacy identity systems are inadequate to handle the rise of remote work, cloud computing, and pervasive security threats, and fall short at providing the scalability, agility, and automation for achieving identity governance across all applications for every identity. However, migrating from a legacy system to a modern one can be a complex process, fraught with potential pitfalls.

Key drivers for consideration when looking to deploy a modern IGA include embracing cloud services, adopting a zero-trust security model, and rearchitecting identity to maximize business agility.

In this webinar, together with a special guest – Forrester Principal Analyst Geoff Cairns, we explore the latest trends in identity governance and discuss the steps that organizations can take to successfully migrate from legacy systems to modern identity solutions. We also examine common pitfalls to avoid and best practices for a smooth and successful migration.

Watch the on-demand webinar to receive valuable insights to inform your next IGA solution, including:

- Trends and implications that impact identity governance
- Understanding the benefits of modern identity governance
- Identifying familiar challenges in migrating from legacy IGA systems
- Strategies for avoiding common migration pitfalls.

Modernizing Identity Governance

A key part of any organization’s security posture is ensuring that the access of all members of the workforce is managed correctly throughout their tenure. This includes proper creation of their access upon joining, appropriate changes to their access as they move around the organization or change roles, and timely deletion or disablement of their access upon temporary or permanent leave.

Strong identity lifecycle management processes help keep people productive by granting them the required role-based access and enforce strong security by enacting rules and policies whilst removing inappropriate access as responsibilities change.

Craig Ramsay, Senior Solution Architect, and Andrew Silberman, Product Marketing Director, from Omada, do a deep dive on how to successfully implement strong identity lifecycle management, including:

• Event driven onboarding for all identity types, including third parties
• How a contextual data model helps with all types of transfer/mover scenarios
• Flexible options for timely and automated provisioning and deprovisioning of access based on lifecycle events.
