Tech Talk | You already have IAM. Why is Access still so Hard to Control?
Date: Thursday, April 30 at 11 am PT / 2 pm ET
You have SSO, MFA, and access reviews. Why does access risk still grow?
Your organization runs on access, but do you truly know who has access to what? While foundational platforms like Microsoft Entra ID handle authentication, single sign-on, and basic application access, they often fall short when organizations need to answer deeper security and compliance questions.
As your enterprise scales across SaaS applications, cloud infrastructure, legacy systems, and automated workloads, managing access becomes increasingly complex. Permissions accumulate through role changes, integrations, and automation pipelines. Over time, organizations struggle to confirm whether access is still appropriate, enforce separation of duties, or demonstrate effective controls during audits.
These challenges become especially apparent when security teams are tasked with validating access decisions across hundreds of applications, certifying permissions for employees and contractors, or proving that sensitive systems are properly protected.
Join this webinar to discover:
- Where IAM platforms support authentication but struggle to enforce consistent access controls across complex environments.
- How access risk quietly accumulates through role changes, inherited permissions, and integrations.
- Why identity programs struggle during audits, creating compliance risks due to limited access context, limited fine-grained entitlement support, inconsistent certification processes, and missing separation of duties controls.
- What it takes to manage identity risk across hybrid environments, including SaaS, cloud platforms, legacy systems, and data environments.
- Why robust connectivity matters for on-prem, proprietary, legacy, and critical apps across your entire environment.
- How modern identity programs manage machine and AI identities, ensuring lifecycle ownership and continuous policy enforcement for service accounts, automation tools, and AI agents.
