Enhancing your cybersecurity posture starts with identity security. One Identity can help unify your approach to managing access rights for better visibility and control, verify everything before granting access to your most-important assets and help you adapt to an evolving threat landscape.

Disparate identity tools can often create security gaps that will leave your organization vulnerable to attack. An Identity Fabric unifies your fragmented identity and access management (IAM) systems into a cohesive, centrally governed framework to help you eliminate those gaps.  

Join Robert Kraczek, One Identity Global Identity and Access Management Strategist, for the broadcast of his discussion with Randy Franklin Smith, industry expert and president of Monterey Group. You will get the chance to: 

- Explore real security incidents that demonstrate the need for an Identity Fabric 
- Discuss ways that an Identity Fabric integrates IAM to eliminate patchwork identity security 
- See how the One Identity solutions satisfy modern security standards and regulations

Identity Fabric: Stitching together IAM or selling the emperor’s new clothes?

Not all identity security applications and systems are created equal. And, since siloed solutions, disparate vendor strategies and market pressures complicate the concept of unified governance, comprehensive security seems nearly impossible.  

An Identity Fabric demystifies the problem. Learn how by joining Josh Karnes, One Identity Principal Identity Architect, in the on-demand webinar where you’ll get the chance to: 

- See how the One Identity solutions enable the right governance for every system and app 
- Explore how integrated solutions combine into one cohesive blanket of security 
- Examine every angle of security that an identity fabric protects

Using One Identity Solutions to Govern your IT Estate

The dynamic nature of regulatory environments, coupled with the sheer volume of data and operational complexities, makes continuous compliance a significant challenge for modern organizations. Traditional reactive approaches often lead to costly remediation efforts and expose businesses to undue risk.  

This session will dig into the transformative power that predictive AI and machine learning offer in the realm of compliance, with a forward-looking perspective on how technology can ensure ongoing adherence to regulations. Key areas of discussion will include: 

- Review why traditional, post-incident compliance checks are no longer sufficient 
- Define what Predictive AI entails in this context 
- Get practical advice on data quality, model training and more 
- Explore a future where compliance is agile, intelligent, and continuously optimized

Maintaining compliance using predictive AI

In today's complex regulatory landscape, organizations face an ever-increasing burden of compliance. Manual compliance processes are not only resource-intensive but also prone to errors and often struggle to keep pace with evolving requirements.  

In this session, explore a transformative approach to achieving continuous compliance through the strategic integration of automation and a robust Identity Fabric, with topics to include: 

- The limitations of traditional compliance methods 
- A deep dive into how an Identity Fabric unifies disparate IAM systems 
- Discuss how an Identity Fabric provides the necessities for automated compliance 
- Practical strategies and examples for automating various compliance controls 
- Mechanisms for real-time monitoring of compliance status 
- Actionable advice on planning and managing an automated compliance framework

Non-human identities (NHIs), from scripts and service accounts to AI agents and automated workflows, vastly outnumber people. They’re granted broad access, deployed at high speed, and operate quietly in the background, often without proper oversight. As the number of NHIs explodes, so does the risk of shadow access, compromised credentials, and a fragmented identity estate with no clear ownership.
