The Role of Identity in an Operationally Mature Enterprise

Learn how an identity-first approach can enable greater operational maturity, allowing organizations to move quickly, adapt to change, and get ahead of upcoming security threats.

A recent research study of 34 Risk Management executives found that increased operational maturity was their most strategic need. At the same time, identity was one of the top four enterprise defense challenges. How can organizations leverage identity, and turn it into a key driver for operational maturity?  

John Horn, Director of Cybersecurity Practice at Datos Insights, will discuss how an identity-first approach can enable greater operational maturity, allowing organizations to move quickly, adapt to change, and get ahead of upcoming security threats. 

This conversational webinar will address:

  • What operational maturity looks like in practical terms, and why it’s a worthy goal for your Identity & Access Management program 
  • Why Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) must function as a practice and not a project 
  • The link between identity data management and a value-driven IGA approach
